You have been subscribed to a public bug: [Impact] Whenever an application that uses Phonon also uses a webkit that uses gstreamer, webkit will install its own webkit based http source. This source is then expoed to Phonon which tries to set a user-agent on it, which is not supported and the webkit source decides that it does not want to work when someone tries to do that. As a result http streaming is broken in any such setup. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=310763
[Test Case] * Install tomahawk and phonon-backend-gstreamer 4.6.2 * Activate a couple of http resolvers (e.g. soundcloud and youtube) * Search for random tracks and try to play ones coming from resolvers * Obesrve that streaming does not work a lot of times (not always). [Regression Potential] The proposed fix disables user-agent setting if the source has no user-agent property, so there is no regression potential as there would not be a phonon user-agent set at any rate. -- Original Report ---------------------------------- I was trying to use tomahawk from https://launchpad.net/~tomahawk/+archive/ppa using phonon and phonon-backend-gstreamer. Unfortunately that didn't work with the audio sources in tomahawk that are streamed over HTTP. According to users in the tomahawk IRC channel this issue is in phonon-backend-gstreamer, as the phonon-backend-vlc works fine. ** Affects: openshot (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Harald Sitter (apachelogger) Status: Fix Released ** Affects: openshot (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Medium Assignee: Harald Sitter (apachelogger) Status: In Progress ** Affects: openshot (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: Medium Assignee: Harald Sitter (apachelogger) Status: Fix Committed ** Affects: openshot (Ubuntu Raring) Importance: Medium Assignee: Harald Sitter (apachelogger) Status: Fix Released ** Tags: verification-needed -- phonon-backend-gstreamer seems to have issues playing from http https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/918688 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenShot Developers, which is subscribed to openshot in Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openshot.developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openshot.developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
