[Bug 334082] Re: Most mp3 files listed with "Unknown" length

 

Can't reproduce anymore in Rhythmbox 2.90.1~20110908-0ubuntu1. Length
was correctly identified for sample files from comment #4 and #21.

Please, change bug status to New, if the problem is still reproducible
for affected users

** Changed in: rhythmbox (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

** Tags added: testcase

** Description changed:

+ TESTCASE:
+ 1) Add files from comments #4 and #21 in the collection
+ 2) Search for these files (search terms: "Greensleeves" and "Beowulf")
+ 3) Check track length
+ 
+ Result: track length is 'Undefined'
+ Expected Result: track lengths are 0:49 and 0:56
+ 
+ --- Original Report ---
  Binary package hint: rhythmbox
  
  After scanning my music folder with rhythmbox, about half of the mp3
  tracks in the library are listed as having a length and bitrate of
  "Unknown". The files play without any problem, but while they are
  playing, the slider does not move.
  
  I've played and indexed these same files in Songbird, WinAmp, iTunes,
  VLC and WMP, none of which had any related issues, so this is more
  likely to be a rhythmbox bug than file corruption.
  
  1.) OS release: Ubuntu 8.10
  2.) rhythmbox version: 0.11.6svn20081008-0ubuntu4.3
  3.) Playable, uncorrupted MP3 files should be displayed with their correct length
  4.) A large portion (about half) of MP3 files do not have a length listed.
  
  If needed, I can provide a small, self-made MP3 file that exhibits this
  problem.
