Created attachment 157486 [details] The console error output. Rhythmbox using gstreamer displays the following error when trying to play "mods": Internal Gstreamer problem; file a bug Using gstreamer directly from the cli causes errors too (in attachment). the command was the folowing: $ gst-launch-0.10 -v playbin uri=file:///home/francisco/Music/Mods/KNGDMSKY.XM Bug first reported on Arch Linux (http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18708). Afterwards, I asked for testing on ubuntu forums and it seems to be there too and it's architecture dependent. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1441750
According to http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18708, it could be a libmodplug error.
Yes, libmodplug problem. I can confirm these crashes here on x86-64. The code that crashes assumes that sizeof(long)==4 and reads/writes twice as much data as it should if sizeof(long)==8... which then causes the crash. Please file this bug again against libmodplug :)
I've contacted the maintainer of the lib and provided him this link. It should be settled soon. Thank you.
