Description mithrir 2003-09-18 20:53:27 UTC 
Gstreamer fails to play a wave file I have.  I think the format may be a
little weird.

Comment 2 Jeremy Simon 2003-09-19 22:39:31 UTC 
It plays fine with this pipeline :
gst-launch filesrc location=test.wav ! wavparse ! mulawdec ! osssink

Did you try to play it with a gstreamer based application ?
Comment 3 Ronald Bultje 2003-09-20 06:41:36 UTC 
Spider doesn't insert mulawdec when needed. There's another such bug,
but I forgot which one. Can someone please dup this bug? :).
Comment 4 mithrir 2003-09-20 17:42:26 UTC 
OK.. this works to play it:
john@johnspiegel john $ gst-launch-0.6 filesrc
location=VoiceMessage.wav ! wavparse ! mulawdec ! osssink

however, if I try to play it in gst-player(0.6.0), I get this error:
"Could not set caps" when I load the file, and this one: "wavparse:
format -1082 not handled" when I try to play it.  In Gnome sound
recorder(2.4.0), I get the "Could not set caps" error.  I have
gstreamer 0.6.3 installed

Verified that this works in HEAD.
Comment 6 David Schleef 2004-03-18 20:17:30 UTC 
Marking as fixed in 0.8.0.
