Bug Description
SRU
-----
[Impact]
Every Phonon based application that allows the user to stream HTTP urls gets bogus metadata information from Phonon.
[Test Case]
* Play http://
* Observe bogus metadata displayed
[Regression Potential]
* none, there was special handling code removed that would artificially create the bogus metadata for streams, so at worst there would be no meta data which is not that far from the current fake "Streaming Data" info.
------
Phonon gstreamer reports metadata "Streaming Data" for every thing when streaming from shoutcast for example.
