playback error when playing flac files from remote shared library

[Robert Hart]

Rhythmnbox 0.9.3.1 using gstreamer 0.10 in Dapper. Dapper last updated 20-Mar-06.

When trying to play a flac file from a remote shared library, I get a "Playback Error - Internal data flow error".

I am able to play flac files from a remote library using a hand compiled rhythmnbox 0.9.3.1 using gstremer 0.8 on my Breezy box.

Thanks for your bug report. Could you try running rhythmbox with -d? For the record, I was a bit confused by your use "shared library" :-)

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_Library to see, why :-))

Hi,

Sorry about the confusion - slapped my forehead and said "D'Oh!"when I realised what you thought I was tallking about.Couldn't think of a succinct way of describing the music library that I had shared on the remote machine :-).

I did as you asked. There is quite a lot of it. Is there somewhere I can upload it as a file? I will add the bit where the error happens as a seperate comment.

Let me know the best way to get the whole file to you.
Robert

Thanks for the output. Could you try running
gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri="file:///path/to/my/musicfile.ogg" ?

[James "Doc" Livingston (jrl)]

This is caused by a known gstreamer bug, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340492. The "flacdec" element doesn't support push-based operation, and the "gnomevfssrc" element doesn't support pull-based operation, so it doesn't work.
