When ripping CDs to MP3 using Rhythmbox, by default they are VBR,
because this is the default preset that is used in
/usr/share/gstreamer-0.10/presets/GstLameMP3Enc.prs (cbr=false). The
problem is that the VBR headers aren't added to the MP3 files, for
example:
$ mp3val 01\ -\ Gregory\ Alan\ Isakov\ -\ Dandelion\ Wine.mp3
Analyzing file "01 - Gregory Alan Isakov - Dandelion Wine.mp3"...
WARNING: "/home/bmaupin/Desktop/Gregory Alan Isakov/This Empty Northern
Hemisphere/01 - Gregory Alan Isakov - Dandelion Wine.mp3": VBR detected, but no
VBR header is present. Seeking may not work properly.
INFO: "/home/bmaupin/Desktop/Gregory Alan Isakov/This Empty Northern
Hemisphere/01 - Gregory Alan Isakov - Dandelion Wine.mp3": 9559 MPEG frames
(MPEG 1 Layer III), +ID3v2, no VBR header
Done!
This causes most programs to report incorrect track lengths, including
Rhythmbox itself and Ubuntu's default Nautilus file manager. This seems
to be a huge oversight considering this is the default behavior using
the default apps. I'm not sure when this started because I only use the
LTS versions of Ubuntu, but I know it wasn't a problem in 10.04, because
it was using a gstreamer pipeline with xingmux as opposed to gstreamer
presets, which from what I understand don't support xingmux (which I
believe adds the VBR headers).
I currently have to fix any MP3s that I generate with Rhythmbox like so:
sudo apt-get install vbrfix
cd /path/to/mp3s
find . -type f -iname '*.mp3' -exec vbrfix {} {} \;
rm vbrfix.log vbrfix.tmp
