[Desktop-packages] [Bug 843333] Re: Rhythmbox delivers a misleading error message on encountering a corrupted ogg.
[Expired for rhythmbox (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.] ** Changed in: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Expired -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84 Title: Rhythmbox delivers a misleading error message on encountering a corrupted ogg. Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: In my ~/Music folder I have a corrupted copy of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:I.S.Bach-BWV578.ogg Naturally, Rhythmbox will often stop playing this file when in reaches the corrupt data (though exactly where it stops and if it stops is inconsistent). The problem is that twice it has given the following message after choking on the file: Search for suitable plugin? The required software to play this file is not installed. You need to install suitable plugins to play media files. Do you want to search for a plugin that supports the selected file? The search will also include software which is not officially supported. This occurs on Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS with Rhythmbox 0.12.8-0ubuntu7 Expected results: Upon encountering corrupt data, Rhythmbox should display an appropriate error message indicating that the file type is supported by the installed plugins but the file seems to be corrupt and needs to be redownloaded. Actual results: Either no error message is displayed and playback stops (acceptable but suboptimal, and happens most of the time), or playback stops and a misleading error message is displayed indicating that a new plugin is required to read the file (this has happened twice), despite the fact that the file has already been read successfully up to the point where it is corrupted (which presumably involves determining that the file type is supported by the current plugins).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 843333] Re: Rhythmbox delivers a misleading error message on encountering a corrupted ogg.
Thanks for the report. I'm unable to reproduce the issue with Oneiric, may you please try to reproduce it with that version and comment back? Thanks again. ** Changed in: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84 Title: Rhythmbox delivers a misleading error message on encountering a corrupted ogg.
