Title:
rhythmbox: plugins required for radio playback
Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
A few minutes after having begun default-radio-stations playback (this
has been tested for all of the "Absolute" stations), playback stops;
message appears: "Python (v2.7) requires to install plugins to play
media files of the following type: text/html decoder"
Under every fresh Ubuntu installation I have seen, it happens that
way, and Rhythmbox has to be restarted for playback to be started back
again, for a sole few minutes before halting the same way as described
before.
----
A workaround for this issue is to right-click the radio station, select
properties, copy its URL, and then paste it back into a browser, download the
playlist file, open it using a text editor, tweak it if desired, then open it
using Rhythmbox -- a new radio station will appear, working this time.
For Absolute Classic Rock, this is the content of the .pls file to be
opened using Rhythmbox:
