| Issue 294: | Progress bar in the browser plugin is wrong most of the time | |
| 1 person starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
Open http://zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net/doc/zynaddsubfx0.ogg in Firefox. The progress bar starts at 0:00 and reports 0:36 as the end of the audio file. That is wrong; the file's length is in reality 2:35. As it plays along, the bar reaches its end at 0:36, but the audio continues playing (with no further movement of the progress bar since it thinks the audio ended) up to its real end, resulting in the progress bar reporting "2:35 / 0:36". This does not happen if the URL is reopened (which means the file is already cached), suggesting a caching problem (my cache setting is 544kB.) I'm on Gnome-mplayer and Gecko-mediaplayer 0.9.8 on Gentoo AMD64. Firefox 3.5.3. |

This is due to certain media types reporting the wrong length when the file is partially cached. I have added extra get_time_length queries into the code to help work around this.

I don't know, since I'm still at 0.9.8. I guess I'll find out when a new release appears in portage. |

Would be nice if it could be tested prior to the release, so you won't have to wait for another release if it is not fixed. |

Live ebuilds would be more than welcome :) |
