Re: [Bug 340649] Re: When invoked from a remote X display, Rhythmbox streams only OGG files
Sebastien: Thanks for following up! > do you still get the issue on jaunty? to be sent to bugzilla.gnome.org > to the people writing the software by somebody having the issue > > ** Changed in: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) >Status: Incomplete => New I upgraded to 9.04 -- the behavior is unchanged. All system elements, including the gstreamer components, are the latest and greatest according to Synaptic. I also installed ffmpeg, but that didn't change anything. When Rhythmbox is invoked locally on the media server (now upgraded to 9.04), it plays all the formats that are of interest to me: ogg, m3u and pls. When invoked remotely via X11 through an ssh tunnel, it plays only ogg files. When I try to play an m3u stream, it complains: Couldn't start playback A text/uri-list decoder plugin is required to play this stream, but not installed. When I try to play a pls stream, it complains: Couldn't start playback Could not determine type of stream. But ogg files play perfectly when invoked remotely! And all file types play perfectly well when Rhythmbox is run locally on the 9.04 media server! What I want to do is run Rhythmbox on this small media server, but have its interface displayed via X11 through the ssh tunnel on a remote screen on my big Ubuntu system. The media server will be hooked up via audio cables to my stereo system, so I am not trying to do anything tricky like run the audio back via ssh to another system. This should work, but it does not under 8.10 or 9.04. Oddly enough, it seemed to work with the media server running 8.04. Weird, huh?

[Bug 340649] [NEW] When invoked from a remote X display, Rhythmbox streams only OGG files
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: rhythmbox Rhythmbox works perfectly when invoked from the local X display of the system it's running on, and it plays and streams all the file types for which I have codecs. However, when I open it up in an X window on a remote display, it plays any local file, regardless of type, but it will stream only OGG files. Attempting to play an MP3 internet stream produces this error: Couldn't start playback Could not determine type of stream I ran a GTK stack trace but got only ordinary thread reports. Rhythmbox does not crash on the error. I can't tell if this is a Rhythmbox problem, something in gstreamer or some configuration weirdness in X11. I'm running Ubuntu 8.04. Rhythmbox is version 0.11.5-0ubuntu8. Gstreamer is version 0.10.18-4ubuntu2.

Pedro: > do you get the same behavior with gst-launch playbin > uri=file:///path/to/mp3 ? ALSO PLEASE NOTE: I made an error in reporting the software versions. I reported the software from the display system, not the system on which Rhythmbox is running. On the system that is running Rhythmbox: + I'm running Ubuntu 8.10. + + Rhythmbox is version 0.11.6svn20081008-0ubuntu4.3. + + Gstreamer is version 0.10.21-4 I updated the bug report, sorry for any confusion. I tried running Rhythmbox on the 8.04 system displaying in X11 on the 8.10 system -- in other words, the reverse situation -- and Rhythmbox streams everything perfectly on the 8.04 system from an X Window displayed on a remote system. Weird.
