[mad] Totem could not play 384kbit lame 'free format' mp3 file

Totem could not play 'file:///home/ronald/Within Temptation/Mother Earth (2001)/08 - Intro.mp3'. Internal GStreamer error: caps problem. File a bug. Ronald Bultje knows how to get access to the file...
I tried the file with xmms, mplayer and totem, none can play it. I tested the header validity with mp3parse (gst-launch filesrc location=file.mp3 ! mp3parse ! fakesink --gst-debug-level=5 --gst-debug-no-color 2>&1 | grep mp3parse), and it finds no valid sequence of frames anywhere. Is this a valid mp3 file? Is there any player out there that plays this?
mpg321 appears to play it. On closer inspection, ffdec_mp3 plays it too. Mad keeps giving 'forbidden bitrate' errors. I'm not sure why it does that. However, this is a GStreamer bug.
Fixed by Benjamin in CVS. Closing.
Forgot to set milestone.
