Missing plugin when playing a webradio with TuneIn #132

Closed sapristi closed 4 years ago

sapristi commented 6 years ago

Hello, when I launch a webradio added by TuneIn, the player tells me that a gstreamer plugin is missing. I also wasn't able to launch a webradio (through a link in a m3u for example, loading the m3u doesn't do anything). I am using gstreamer 1.12 from the arch repo, with all plugins installed. Do you have any idea of what could be causing this ?

Anyway thanks a lot for this very nice music player !

I see the same in openSUSE.

Hi.. although it is very probable. Due to the nature of the service, with deprecated api, I can not reproduce this bug. :disappointed: Can you give some example of a search? :wink:

matiasdelellis commented 6 years ago

Well.. A good alternative? http://www.radio-browser.info/webservice

:wink:

I tried with various french radios (FIP, canalb, france inter, etc), and none of them work. It seems that TuneIn works : for example with FIP the error says

Error playing current track (http://opml.radiotime.com/Tune.ashx?id=s15200) Reason : a plugin is missing in your Gstreamer installation

Where the given url works in a web browsers and allows me to play the radio. (the error message is roughly translated from French).

I have the same problem ... can you tell us what gstreamer plugin is needed and is responsible for playing radio streams? I do have all installed (base, good, bad, ugly). If I open the tune.ashx and open the url in my browser the radio stream works, just not in pragha. My system is Arch ... pragha version 1.3.4-1.

As far as I know, pragha is not able to parse text/uri-list links, such as totem can. Support for playlist parsing in totem is accomplished with routines from the totem-pl-parser library, which pragha could probably use, but I think that this is yet-to-be-implemented.

If you just want to listen to your radio on pragha, you could parse the list by-hand, for instance:

$ curl http://opml.radiotime.com/Tune.ashx?id=s15200
http://direct.fipradio.fr/live/fip-midfi.mp3?ID=76zqey582k
http://direct.fipradio.fr/live/fip-lofi.mp3?ID=76zqey582k

Just copy one of the URLs above into pragha, instead of the URL you posted.

thanks gftg85, I've done exactly that ... entered the URL in Pragha, but am getting that the error message that a GStreamer plugin is missing, even though I have them all installed ... window_46_05mar2019_450x466

inconstante commented 5 years ago

I see from your screenshot that you are still trying to play a playlist, which is going to fail for the reason I explained above.

For your case, you would also have to parse the URL by-hand, like this:

$ curl http://mp3-live.swr.de/swr1bw_m.m3u
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,SWR1 Baden-Württemberg
http://swr-swr1-bw.cast.addradio.de/swr/swr1/bw/mp3/128/stream.mp3

Then copy the URL above into pragha. It worked for me on Debian.

It would be very nice if pragha had support for parsing playlists... I currently don't know how to implement it, but I might give it a try.

apps4research commented 5 years ago

Ahh! yes, I undestand now, thanks so much, its working now :) Really appreciate your patience :)

inconstante commented 5 years ago

Cheers! Nice radio, by the way. :)

Agreed btw, would be cool if you do decide to give it a go. Am liking pragha very much (more than rhytmbox, which was getting on my nerves), and think it has a lot of potential ...

matiasdelellis commented 5 years ago

Hi all, Can you tell me exactly what terms you are using to search? So I try to reproduce it. :smile:

matiasdelellis commented 5 years ago

However I suspect that this can help .. https://github.com/pragha-music-player/pragha/commit/68377e99528e4e8fe7cce02329aaeb805af49c5d

matiasdelellis commented 5 years ago

OK.. Searching FIP, the first item is 'audio' but it is a playlist.. :disappointed:

http://opml.radiotime.com/Search.aspx?query=FIP

The shared commit in this case no help, and may be more difficult to fix..

matiasdelellis commented 5 years ago

Hi all,

and may be more difficult to fix..

Rectify ... it's really implemented, but depend to compile Pragha with totem-pl-parser..

inconstante commented 5 years ago

Indeed. I'll fix it for the next pragha release on Debian, which must wait for Debian's code freeze, so I'll write back in a month or so.

inconstante commented 4 years ago

Thanks for closing the bug report.

For those using Debian... The new Debian build, 1.3.4-1, which has support for playlist parsing, is currently available on Debian unstable/sid (and will likely migrate to Debian testing/bullseye in 3 days, if I didn't screw anything up). The versions in each Debian release can be found here.
