This bug is still present in version 2.98 under ubuntu raring 13.04. Seeing the importance set to LOW, while 5 years passed from the first report, is outraging.
Most of my files are vbr encoded mp3, and I cant check song duration, cant jump to a position in song, or see where the current playing position is, because rhythmbox shows incorrect duration for mp3 songs encoded in variable bitrate. This is unacceptable for a media player, and should have been resolved years ago. I hope you recognise what a major bug this is. I really like your player, but unfortunately this bug makes it neccessary to have another player, so I can jump into vbr encoded songs too. Other than that keep up the good work, your player is still one of the best. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271755 Title: variable rate mp3 have wrong length Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application: New Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: rhythmbox When I play variable bit rate mp3s in rhythmbox, the progress bar shows incorrect file length Sometimes it is shorter that actual song, and progress bar stops at the end of it, but song continues to play, sometimes it is longer, and song stops playing before it reaches the end.
