GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 378397
Internal GStreamer error: clock problem / Unexpected discontinuity in audio timestamps of more than half a second
Last modified: 2006-12-16 18:45:42 UTC
when trying to play MPEGs from: http://pvanhoof.be/blog/index.php/2006/11/22/video-demos-finally I get a sketchy audio noise, like bubbles of static, and no video. I receive the following error: ** (totem:3100): WARNING **: Internal GStreamer error: clock problem. Please file a bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer. [gstbaseaudiosink.c(619): gst_base_audio_sink_render (): /play/visbin/abin/audiosinkbin/audio-sink/bin1/autoaudiosink0/autoaudiosink0-actual-sink-alsa: Unexpected discontinuity in audio timestamps of more than half a second] I don't usually have much luck filing bugs for GNOME applications when I'm told to, as I find too little information to help, and I don't always have the time to help clarify. But, it says to file, so I file :) Details about my system: It has dual processors, it is newly running Fedora Core 6, and GStreamer just got an update. I can't say if it would have played elsewise. And I don't have any non-Totem players to test the files with. Cheers!

Notice that since we know the blog author, he can probably fill us with informations on how the file was made. That would help know if it's the file which is corrupt and gstreamer must be hardened against it, or if it's correct and gstreamer has a bug.
Thanks for the bug report and sorry for the late response. The problem is due to a typefind bug, the stream is wrongly recognised as mp3 audio and not as mpeg video. This bug has been fixed in the latest gst-plugins-base 0.10.11 release. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 369482 ***
