"Stubru" doesn't play in rhythmbox

Hello,
Recently I installed gnome 3.8 and rhythmbox. I can play my entire music library without a problem and also the predefined shoutcast streams work fine. I would however like to listen to "Studio Brussel", a belgian radiostation. They offer a stream: http://mp3.streampower.be/stubru-high.mp3 . When I try to play it in rhythmbox, nothing happens. No error but also no music. I can play the stream using mplayer without a problem. When I try to play the stream on a ubuntu 13.04 installation on the same machine (dualboot) it also fails.
The archlinux wiki page on rhythmbox advises to a.) install gstreamer0.10-base-plugins-gnomevfs, which seems obsolete now as rhythmbox uses gstreamer1 now (right?) and b.) to install the grilo and grilo-plugins packages, which I did. The stream still doesn't play. Also, it seems te me this is more to be able to browse streams (instead of play them). The stream also fails when I try to open it in totem. I would therefore suspect a problem with gstreamer, but do not know how to investigate this further.
Now, I would like to know if anybody else can play this stream (which makes it a problem with my particular installation) and if it is a gstreamer problem, how I can investigate it further.
Regards,
Rolf
PS Most other streams I try to add also won't play (but some will!). I haven't found out what is common in the streams that will or will not play. The streams that do play are ogg streams and not mp3

Nevermind. Seems to be some upstream bug. Will just have to wait until it lands in arch I suppose. See also these Ubuntu 13.04 bug/question:

[edit] In the mean time you can do killall gvfsd-http to play streams

  • ITunes doesn't play the next song, it just stops after one track.

    I have iTunes 11.0.1. When I play a song in my playlist, I expect the next song to start as the first one ends, but iTunes stops and doesn't play the next song. I'm missing some sort of setting but what?
    It's not a smart playlist, just a playlist of favorite music I've built up over the years.
    Mountain Lion.

    Have the tracks become unchecked? iTunes will skip unchecked tracks, so if they're all unchecked, iTunes will play one and then stop. If this is indeed the case, re-checkmark the tracks - Command-click will select or unselect them all - and you should then have continuous playback.
    Hope this helps.

  • Ipod doesn't play the songs! please help!!

  • IPod mini doesn't play ANY songs!!! Please Help

    My iPod mini doesn't play any songs. It doesn't play purchased music from the iTunes Music Store, ripped CDs, or ANYTHING. On the iPod I go to play a song but the music time counter remains on 0:00. When it does this faint sounds of the song trying to start can be heard, but then a lot of static comes up. A song did start once but it stoped at 7 seconds. I've tried the 5 Rs and everything I can think of! Please Help!

  • .SWF doesn't play in website

    Hi, I am using Flash 5. I  need to save my flash .swf to play on a website. I went into Publish settings and selected Flash player 9 and Actionscript 3. I then exported the .swf and .html.
    Animation Doesn’t Play
    I then placed the .swf in Dreamweaver using Dreamweavers .swf plugin. When I previewed the page in my browser the sound played but the animation didn’t. What a I missing?
    Animation Play Button
    Also, can someone please tell me the best way to have my .swf not play until the user clicks’ play. Is there a setting to get a start arrow like a Quicktime mov.? or do I need to set it up myself?
    Thanks

    Does the html page that Flash publushed work okay?  USe the codee from that file if it does,  DW is not a reliable source for embedding Flash content.
    You will need to build in your own controls to have something clickable that plays the file.

  • ITunes doesn't play wavs made on PC

    I have backed up a number of PC files on a DVD and tried to put them on my iPod shuffle, using iTunes on my MacPro, when I realized that iTunes doesn't play them, so I can't put them on the shuffle. However, those wav files play alright in Quicktime on my Mac. Why not also on iTunes? Is there something that I have to enable, or some sort of conversion that I must do?
    The files seem to load in the playlist, then they show in both the playlist and the Music folder. The files seem to be there, for when I Ctrl+click > Get info, within iTunes, it shows their size, sample rate, etc. It's just that they won't play.
    Any suggestion will be much appreciated.

    Yes, I have played almost endless numbers of WAVs in iTunes. These files have been created with foobar2000, PlexTools Professional, and EAC for the most part.
    My PC is switched off right now so I can't play with NMP WAV files and iTunes, but I still think that if you simply use another program to reconvert the problematic files to WAV format again (a lossless process) with known good settings, the files will likely play in iTunes.
    Also, it may be that NMP has created "floating point" vs. "fixed point" WAVs, and that would cause problems with iTunes.

  • Firefox doesn't play embedded swf

    I've looked on many forums, including Firefox, with no real answer. Running Firefox 4. It just doesn't play embedded SWF. My Adobe Flashplayer is up to date, so is the plugin. The page displays properly. But the area that should be displaying a movie is just represented by a tiny square. No error message appears. The same page doesn't show the movie in IE9 either.
    Now from looking at the page information, it just requires Flashplayer 6 and above for the SWF area. I do have Flashplayer 10. The plugin says Shockwave Flash player 10 is up to date. Many other pages with different types of embedded movies play properly.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Itunes doesn't play songs, help me please

    hi guys, i'm an italian boy. my itunes doesn't play any songs that i have; when i click on one song the little blue loudspeaker appears but the song doesn't start. this problem began to exist when i downloaded the latest version of itunes (6.0.5, i think) so i have decided to unistall the latest version and to re-install the old 4.0 version, but the problem persist. maybe i've unistalled some of the pc's programs that were necessary to make itunes operative, but i don't remember which. please help me!!! contact me at [email protected], and sorry for my english...:-)

    the same thing is happening to me as well since I upgraded to the latest version of iTunes. My sound beeps now in everything, from email notifications, to music. But iTunes won't play any songs that I select. Hope to get some feedback.

  • Sound doesn't play with video

    i just recently put a few music videos on my ipod and they play fine, but the music doesn't play along with them. also if i try to play the music then start the video, my ipod freezes up. can anyone help me resolve my dilemma here? thanks (:

    Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

  • ITunes doesn't play music after sleeping mode.

    iTunes doesn't play music. I try to start any song by remote app in iPhone from sleeping mode of mac mini.
    I can see all my music library, choose any artist and any albom.
    But when I try to start the music nothing is happen.
    The button Play/pause doesn't work and the play-bar is not moving.
    This issue have appeared after upgrade to iTunes 11 and new remote app.
    After reboot iTunes everything is ok, but in a sleep mode I have the same problem.
    Please help!

    okay. i solved the problem. After reading a few other posts on related topics, it appears that using either the Setup Assistant(instead of the Airport Admin program) or if you are using the new version called 'Airport Utility' to use the option to 'Assist Me'. After going through the setup in this way it worked!

  • Hi guys,my iphon 4 doesn't play most of the

    Hi guys!
    My iphone 4 doesn't play most of the music what are in the music library on the pc,what is syncronized by iTunes.this problem came with iOS 5.,but previously the phone had different other issues,so it has never worked as it promised by Apple.I have tryed every solution what I saw on the communiti forums,but nothing works permanently,the solutions are only temporary.I went many times to the Apple store to fix the problems but they could not solve the problems.They gave me a replacement handset,which solved the fast battery drain issue,so the hardware seems OK!!!! To be an iphone owner is a struggeling, I always recive different bugs from Apple,like other iphone users.This behaving made the Apple different fom the others,as they wanted.Job done! That is why I ended up at Nokia N8,because it plays every single tune what are in same music library what used by iTunes, no lugs,no skips, no mess up,it has FM radio,free sat-nav,12Mp brilliant camera,working bluethoot,no need online connection for everithing! I find the solution for the iphone problems,this way my iphone turned to a secondary phone,I will use as an emergency phone ,this is not a smartphone!

    Got it replaced last week. Turns out the dock was defective.

  • 1st song on all my cds breaks up or doesn't play

    All the others songs work perfectly, but the first makes crackling sounds, or doesn't play for like 10 secs or a minute. When it starts playing, and I drag the timer back to the start of the song it works fine, but it nevers works if I just double click the song. Any ideas?

    MrDew,
    Let's start with this knowledge base article,
    iTunes for Windows: Songs and other audio don't sound right
    Sometimes it's just an audio driver problem.
    If that doesn't help, I need more information about your hardware configuration. Please run the iTunes Help menu -> Run CD diagnostics and post the output here.

  • ITunes doesn't play.... what's up??

    Ok, this is weird but I'm afraid the answer might be both obvious and tragic. All of a sudden, iTunes quit working completely, except that everything about it looks perfectly normal. It's not frozen, I can click on my playlists, I can drag the time bar and everything else, but that it doesn't play music, which is sort of an important part of iTunes. The play button does nothing other than briefly turn blue. It doesn't switch to the pause button and the time doesn't start to run. The space bar and the play tab in the menu do nothing either.
    I've tried installing the latest version of iTunes, I'm now using 6.0.4. The upgrade didin't help. Everything had been fine until all of a sudden yesterday I couldn't get it to work. Now, the only problem I can think of is something sort of badand scary.... the disk utility has been telling me for a year now that my hard drive "has reported a fatal error." But so far everything has been working fine. Is there something about a fatal error that could keep the play button from working? I know fatal errors are serious, but this hasn't been causing any problems.... I've just been holding my breath for a year, and backing up a lot.
    Are there any suggestions anybody can make, other than getting a new iBook, which is a sweet idea but out of the question at the moment?

    Since you installed a new version, it's unlikely the iTunes application is the culprit.
    The only thing I can thinks of at the moment, is deleting the iTunes preference files.
    Drag the next files in ~/users/YourUsername/Library/Preferences to the desktop:
    com.apple.iTunes.eq.plist
    com.apple.iTunes.plist
    com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist
    com.apple.iTunes.xxxxxxxxxxxx.plist (x-es are characters and numbers)
    The last file is located in the Byhost folder of the above mentioned path.
    Run iTunes and try again to play a song.
    Hope this helps.

  • Animated GIF Doesn't Play To The End

    I've created a simple animated GIF in Photoshop CS6, eight seconds long, 30fps.
    I have several layers that fade out at and then more layers that fade IN at four seconds. It plays perfectly in Photoshop, but a rendered GIF doesn't play entirely to the end - it stops prematurely.
    How do I fix this?  I've tried the animated GIF in a browser and it does the same thing in a PPT slide.
    Anyone?
    Thanks.

    Thank you, Nancy.
    I just reduced my project file down to 15fps and three seconds long.  Testing the animation in the Save for Web dialogue box I see that it still won't play to the end.  The fade-in stops before it's at 100% opacity.
    The rendered GIF file size would be 242k.  I HAVE to use Save for Web, as Save As will discard hidden layers and animations.
    Still can't figure out what causes this, and I've had this happen to me before.  (I bet I wouldn't have this problem rendering out of After Effects.)

  • Music album cover images and track titles show on iPhone 4s but music doesn't play - any ideas?

    I am a Young at Heart Senior, new to iPhone 4s, have an old creaking pc with Windows XP Home.....but plan to enter the real world any day soon by buying a new Mac!
    Here is my problem, I purchased an album on iTunes and mistakenly started to sync it to my phone, (although I don't have iCloud loaded on my pc). I stopped it mid download and later noticed that the total track numbers were showing as a red number above the "more" button as if they were waiting to complete the download. It stayed there while I thought about it for a few days, but when I click the Album button all the tracks are listed.
    Now to the funny part.....when I click on a track or indeed any of them, it doesn't play a sound...but the progress bar above moves as if "now playing".
    So, I thought.... no problem, I would connect the phone up to iTunes and delete the tracks....but when I do so, this album and none of it's track titles show in my music list for the phone......weird.
    So, I have a large album with titles only on my phone, no music behind the titles (which, incidentally, is rubbish anyway) and I can't get rid of it off my phone, any of you young whizzy iPhoners have any ideas how to clear it off???
    I did think I might just Restore my phone, but wondered whether downloading all my stuff from iCloud would still include the dreaded  "Now That's What I Call Christmas" album, which I only purchased in late 2011 to play at a seniors Xmas party...........you live and learn!
    You will guess from my ramblings that I am not at all techy, but consider myself willing to learn and apart from this hiccup........I luuuurve my iPhone!

    If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
    This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
    If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go
