Description of problem: When using the Fluendo MP3 decoder in Rhythmbox, it is not possible to use the seek bar properly. Dragging it to seek in a song starts the song playing in the correct place, but the seek bar then reverts back to the beginning, rather than updating for the correct location in the song. This doesn't happen with an Ogg Vorbis sound file. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Rhythmbox 0.11.3, Fluendo MP3 decoder version unknown How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install the Fluendo MP3 decoder via Codec Buddy 2. Attempt to seek in an MP3 playing in Rhythmbox Actual results: Song seeks to the correct position, but the seek bar reverts to the start of the song. Expected results: The seek bar should match the location within the song.
Any errors on the command-line? Could you also please make sure that you have the latest version of the gstreamer plugins? (some are probably still in the updates-testing repository)
Well, I have to confess that following my original post, I actually started using the gstreamer-plugins-bad package from Livna as I knew that had worked. I have just removed that package now to try Rhythmbox and it is failing to play MP3s at all (even with updated gstreamer-plugins-base package). When I run it in debug mode, then an error message about rb-player-gst-xfade.c appears, saying that it isn't playing. Even when turning off the fader backend, Rhythmbox still fails to play with lots of "tick" error messages
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
