Comment 1 Philippe Normand 2009-10-13 21:13:39 UTC 
Trying with playbin2:

ERROR: from element /GstPlayBin2:playbin20/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0/GstDecodeBin2:decodebin20/GstMPEGAudioParse:mpegaudioparse0: Failed to parse stream
Additional debug info:
gstmpegaudioparse.c(1479): gst_mp3parse_handle_data (): /GstPlayBin2:playbin20/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0/GstDecodeBin2:decodebin20/GstMPEGAudioParse:mpegaudioparse0
Comment 2 Michael Smith 2009-10-13 21:18:17 UTC 
This is a free format mp3 file.

mp3parse doesn't support free format.
Comment 3 Thiago Sousa Santos 2009-11-23 20:30:10 UTC 
I started working on this and made mp3parse parse free format files (hacky in some ways), but mad and libmad fails to find the sync header because this is a free format and frames are aligned to buffers, so there is no 'next' sync header in the current buffer and it doesn't return the 'need more data' error. It returns 'lost sync' instead. We could have a workaround in mad.

This should be fixed in git now, even if this bug isn't referenced:
