Description Milan Bouchet-Valat 2011-09-06 21:22:05 UTC 
If I try to add to an audio project FLAC files, I get an error message saying the file is not suitable for audio CDs. These files are correct since Totem plays them OK.

With the --gst-debug=2 option, I get this when adding the file:
0:00:04.081585885 ESC[336m 3221ESC[00m      0x1be3370 ESC[33;01mWARN   ESC[00m 
ESC[00m             flacdec gstflacdec.c:1264:gst_flac_dec_sink_event:<flacdec0>
ESC[00m couldn't convert time => samples
0:00:04.084916391 ESC[336m 3221ESC[00m      0x1855f20 ESC[33;01mWARN   ESC[00m 
ESC[00m            mp3parse gstmpegaudioparse.c:1601:head_check:<mpegaudioparse0
>ESC[00m invalid sync

The "mp3parse gstmpegaudioparse.c" output is then printed so many times that the log file goes to 45MB and I need to kill it (only happens with debugging enabled).


OK, I confess: you can find the album as a torrent. For the sake of testing, the link is:
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:aea92f0e7818b03e63e1dfa26c6f1e0d4a4d53c8


This is on Fedora 15, with Brasero 3.0.0 and GStreamer 0.10.34.


(BTW, the error message could be a little more subtle, and distinguish a non audio format from a decoding error... ;-)

While we're at it, Ubuntu has a similar report with a linked FLAC file that doesn't work either (I've also tested it on my box). Maybe that's the same problem, maybe not, but I give you the link.

The file linked above contains ID3 tags. In some testing here .flac's that have added ID3 tags will be refused by brasero, normally tagged one's are fine. Used same extractor as the linked file, EAC in wine, & rupyripper
