Audacious aac+ streams no longer working

[blueflame]

After the upgrade to audacious 1.4.5 I cannot play aac+ streams from www.di.fm anymore. Audacious kind of hangs with lots of the following messages when started from a console:

Code: Select all

ERROR: neon: neon.c:881 (neon_aud_vfs_fread_impl): Buffer underrun, trying rebuffering

I can see network traffic so it is reading the stream ok, but it cannot play - the time counter doesn't move and no sound.

I have:

Code: Select all

[ebuild   R   ] media-sound/audacious-1.4.5  USE="nls -chardet -dbus -libsamplerate"
[ebuild   R   ] media-plugins/audacious-plugins-1.4.4  USE="aac alsa flac gnome mp3 nls sse2 -adplug -arts -chardet -dbus -esd -jack -lirc -modplug -mtp -musepack -oss -pulseaudio -sdl -sid -sndfile -timidity -tta -vorbis -wavpack -wma"

MP3 streams play fine.

Now it's crashing after playing MP3 streams for >1 hour. I'm going back the 1.3.2 - it was much more stable.

Same for me. AMD64.

Further than it goes for me, can't play mp3 streams at all.. amd64 here as well.

Edit: Looks like a bug report has been filed with the audacious folks here; http://bugzilla.atheme.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123

Thanks for the tip about VLC!
I've been using audacious for some ???? time and I like it. I hope this problem will be fixed by the devs so that none of us are forced to switch to another media player unless we choose to do so.

You're welcome

I've got audacious 1.4.x on two machines. Audacious 1.4.5 is happily running on the x86 -- very stable. But on my amd64 machine, I tried 1.4.5 and 1.4.6 but both give me the same problem as you describe. According to the log messages, it appears that the problem may actually be in package net-misc/neon.

Looks like this bug only affects 64-bit.

Hi,

I had the same problems as you. In my case installing media-plugins/gst-plugins-neon (with all its dependencies), and a reboot (??) solved it.
Well, I did many things, this bug kept me busy for one day, so I cannot be sure. I believe the above mentioned package was the key.
