Description Bill Nottingham 2008-10-30 17:17:02 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Given the MP3 audio file at http://www.nowlive.com/podcast/OpenPodcast.ashx?PodcastID=177483 playback stutters badly when played through a gstreamer app, such as totem or rhythmbox.

madplay and mplayer both play the file OK.

While I'm outputting through PulseAudio, it doesn't happen for all mp3 files, and ogg playback is OK - therefore assuming it's not a gst-plugins-pulse file.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download mentioned mp3 file
2. Attempt to play in totem


Actual results:
Playback stutters badly.

Expected results:
Plays normally.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

I think this is probably fixed by this commit, can you confirm?

    * gst/mpegaudioparse/gstmpegaudioparse.c:
      Calculate samples per frame correctly for "MPEG 2.5" layer 3.
      Fixes skipping on these files.
