ReportedBy: pjo...@gm... QAContact: gst...@li... GNOME version: 2.17/2.18 GNOME milestone: Unspecified +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #442611 +++ (No response to original one, so cross-posting here. I'm disappointed a bit, trying to help improving open software and no one's interested...) When listening to audio CDs using GStreamer-based apps (such as Rhythmbox, Banshee or Exaile), the quality of sound isn't as it is expected to be. I can hear some cracks and noise with electric guitar playing a capella for example. Standalone hi-fi set or every xine-based player (e.g. totem and amarok, both with xine engine) produces better results, i.e. the sound is clean. The strange thing is that sound-juicer (AFAIK it's also GStreamer-based) plays the same audio CD correctly. I'd ripped track with mentioned guitar solo using cdparanoia, then played produced wav file with Rhythmbox. Sound's clean again. Steps to reproduce: 1. Get some audio CD with very few instruments playing, as it is easier to hear the difference when listening to only one of them. 2. Play it with GStreamer and xine-based app. Try playing with sound-juicer too. 3. Notice the difference. -- See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/page.cgi?id=email.html for more info about why you received this email, why you can't respond via email, how to stop receiving emails (or reduce the number you receive), and how to contact someone if you are having problems with the system.
