GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 159292
Rhythmbox unable to handle Virgin Radio Ogg Streams
Last modified: 2005-02-02 13:44:59 UTC
Go to: http://www.virginradio.co.uk/thestation/listen/index.html And try and add add one of those URL's to Rhythmbox. They do not play, I am guessing due to rb not handling icecast playlists.
I can play them (once I had associated them with rhythmbox), but they are dropped quit soon (after 1:30 at most). The error message (into English) is: unexpected end of stream. It doesn't really depend on the throughput - playback starts faster with a higher one, that's all. Rhythmbox should fallback to silence and try to fill its buffer again.
Additionally it could double buffer size, making it a per-station setting.
