I can't get Rhythmbox to play m4a files encoded with faac. m4a files encoded with iTunes work, and the faac files play on my iPod Shuffle, and in AmaroK and XMMS.
I am using Fedora Core 4 on x86, and have installed all the plugins and decoders with yum. faac is compiled from sources, as the rpm does not have mp4 support. The -d option tells me the files are identified as video/quicktime instead of audio/x-m4a (what I see for an iTunes encoded file): [0x91f5a58] [rb_metadata_load] rb-metadata-gst.c:468 (23:57:25): loading metadata for uri: file:///home/gunnar/ai/American_Idiot.m4a [0x91f5a58] [rb_metadata_gst_typefind_cb] rb-metadata-gst.c:421 (23:57:25): found type video/quicktime [0x91f5a58] [rb_metadata_gst_load_tag] rb-metadata-gst.c:360 (23:57:25): uri: file:///home/gunnar/ai/American_Idiot.m4a tag: title ... --gst-debug-level=5 produces a 1.2 MB logfile, that is a bit hard to make sense of. Gstreamer seems to understand that it is an audio file, until it suddenly is a video. Is this a Rhythmbox problem or a Gstreamer bug? Has anybody had any similar problem?
