Audacity crashes when importing a movie (MPEG ADTS, AAC, v4 LC, 48 kHz, stereo)

[Nicola Ferralis]

Using Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS, I am trying to import an audio file (MPEG ADTS, AAC, v4 LC, 48 kHz, stereo) into Audacity (1.3.12-beta). The application crashes right away with no error message. Running Audacity from the terminal produces the following "errors"

When it starts, I get this ( maybe just a warning, I guess)
Expression 'stream->capture.pcm' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 3653

Then when I do File-> Import -> Audio
and then select the audio file, it segmentation faults ...most of the time.

Can you attach an example audio file that triggers your bug?

Does this still occur on Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty Tahr"? If so, you might need the recently released GStreamer Plugins Good (gst-plugins-good1.0) 1.2.4, which contains a fix for GNOME bug number 724638 : aacparse : Missing resilience when no audio frame is found. Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty Tahr" only has gst-plugins-good1.0 1.2.3-1ubuntu2.
