From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.0 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020408 Description of problem: I used oggenc 1.0r3 (included in RH Linux 7.3) to create new 256k bitrate ogg files. XMMS will not play them. It cycles through a bunch of bogus bitrates in the display and outputs no sound. using ogg123 to play the files from the command line works fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Use oggenc to encode a 256k bitrate ogg file under RHLinux 7.3 2.Try to play the file in XMMS 3. Actual Results: No sound is output, XMMS display jumps around and is apparently confused by the ogg file Expected Results: The ogg file should have played back normally, just as it does when I use ogg123 from the command line Additional info: I used grip as an oggenc frontend. I can provide ogg files if you cannot reproduce.
Turned out that the problem was the extension of the files was .mp3 and not .ogg. XMMS gets confused by this.
