Ogg streams halt after a few minutes playing #168

Closed PorkPieHat closed 3 years ago

PorkPieHat commented 3 years ago

Ogg streams halt after a couple of minutes in my Majaro "Nibia" install. Try this:

https://stream.radioparadise.com/rp_192m.ogg

The problem affected the original radiotray. See this bug report (post #27):

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/radiotray/+bug/1557115

A variant of the bug also affected radiotray-lite. See here:

https://github.com/thekvs/radiotray-lite/issues/11

This bug was fixed, however

This is a small issue in a great app - but an irritating one

I would say that the issue has to do with the apps handling of metadata in ogg streams. The radio paradise stream quoted above halts on track changes.

This stream - no metadata - plays OK:
