Exfalso starts but I can't view the tagging information. I
get this error message:
W: Error loading /mnt/music/ABBA/Gold - Greatest Hits/01 - Dancing Queen.flac Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/quodlibet/formats/__init__.py", line 41, in MusicFile return _infos[ext](filename) File "/usr/share/quodlibet/formats/flac_.py", line 28, in __init__ raise IOError("%s is not a FLAC file" % filename) IOError: /mnt/music/ABBA/Gold - Greatest Hits/01 - Dancing Queen.flac is not a FLAC file The file is a flac file and the tag can be viewed/edited with the exfalso from quodlibet 0.15 I'm also having hard freezes (the power button must be used to reboot) when using quodlibet. These hard freezes also happen with xine so I'm not sure if it's a specific quodlibet issue. Playing audio/video files with other players (moreamp, mplayer) works fine. |

Reason for closing: Not a bug
Additional comments about closing: Closing with "Not a bug" because it isn't a packaging issue. Eric, you might want to try a vanilla 2.6.15 before bugging kernel.org :)

Also, you don't mention whether Ex Falso works with other FLAC files. Does it?
Do you suspect that this is an Arch-specific issue?
2. It doesn't work with any flac file. It works with mp3 files, though. I don't think it's a problem with the files because if I downgrade to quodlibet-0.15-1, then exfalso will work with all flac files.

3. The hard freezes could be kernel related. On recommendation from a forum use, I installed the archck kernel (kernel26archck 2.6.14.archck4-1). Since then, I've use xine and quodlibet quite extensively without any freeze. I can't say if it's an arch specific issue (unless I try to intall python and run quodlibet in WinXP ;? ). However, noone else has reported a similar problem on the ML/forums.
"FLAC has it's own native tagging system which is identical to that of Vorbis. They are called alternately "FLAC tags" and "Vorbis comments". It is the only tagging system required and guaranteed to be supported by FLAC implementations.
Out of convenience, the reference decoder knows how to skip ID3 tags so that they don't interfere with decoding. But you should not expect any tags beside FLAC tags to be supported in applications; some implementations may not even be able to decode a FLAC file with ID3 tags."
http://flac.sourceforge.net/faq.html#general__tagging
Given this it would seem that Quod Libet is behaving correctly.
I would recommend closing this bug.
As for the hard freezes, I will investigate with a memtest and with a vanilla kernel 2.6.14. If needed, I will fill a bug report where appropriate.
