Description of problem: Ever since I upgraded from FC 4, I haven't been able to play my music collection which was ripped by iTunes (I share it with a Mac user). The files are AAC format (.m4a) and are NOT the DRM-protected (.m4p) files from the iTunes store. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Rhythmbox 0.9.5 gstreamer-tools-0.10.9-2 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.9-4 gstreamer-plugins-ugly-devel-0.10.4-3.lvn6 gstreamer-plugins-bad-devel-0.10.3-1.fc6 gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.10.1-4.lvn6 gstreamer-plugins-base-devel-0.10.9-4 gstreamer-devel-0.10.9-2 gstreamer-0.10.9-2 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.4-1.fc6 gstreamer-plugins-bad-0.10.3-1.fc6 gstreamer-python-0.10.5-2.fc6 gstreamer-plugins-ugly-0.10.4-3.lvn6 gstreamer-plugins-good-devel-0.10.4-1.fc6 How reproducible: Every time I try to play them. Since I upgraded from FC4. 1. Point Rhythmbox to a directory holding .m4a files. The files will load up in the main browser window. (In FC6, now they don't even load, complain about a gstreamer error.) 2. Try to play an .m4a file. Actual results: Rhythmbox either locks up or it will skip from song to song very quickly not playing any. Either way the program has to be killed at that point. Expected results: Play the song like FC4 used to do. Additional info:
Just checking to see if anyone has read this issue. I'm not really expecting a fix, but a response would be nice. Even if the response is that FC6 explicitly disallows AAC support for some reason. Then maybe I could find a workaround?
I have no idea why this changed. We won't have time to look into it though (due to time limitations). If you file a bug upstream you will probably get a better response.
