Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libxine-main1
I've been having some weird problems with xine for a few years now, mainly as the xine backend in amarok. Other than general stability issues, I have been having trouble getting xine to play some ogg files, while others play just fine. I finally decided to look for some more info since the amarok package I'm using doesn't have any other backends available, and as a large part of my music collection is in ogg format. I have a short list of what ogg vorbis versions will work in xine, and which wont: 1.0 RC 2 yes 1.0 yes 1.1.0 RC1 yes 1.0.1 yes 1.0 RC 1 no 1.0 beta 4 no That is by no means a complete lists. I am sure there were other versions packaged for debian/ubuntu. Reading the bug reports on the xine website it seems like this is a regression *original bug report (with non-working patch): http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=892508&group_id=9655&atid=109655 *new bug report (with semi working patch): http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1465298&group_id=9655&atid=109655 Seeing as how the patch only requires changing the buffer size in one file this would be an easy fix for the libxine-main1 maintainer in ubuntu, until the upstream sources are patched. The second bug was reported 4 months ago, and the cvs version still hasn't been fixed. ** Affects: xine-lib (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- xine refuses to play old ogg files https://launchpad.net/bugs/56153 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
