Description rangerGR 2009-07-07 19:42:57 UTC
Version:           2.2-SVN (using 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4), Arch Linux)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.30-ARCH

When listenig to a ogg stream, (for example from an Icecast server) amarok doesn't update media info.
Current track applet and playlist always shows the first track that amarok played from the stream. When listening an mp3 stream from Icecast, current track is updated with every song change.
With amarok 1.4.x and with the same version of Icecast server, media info was updated for every song change and for both stream types.

How to Reproduce:
Open an Icecast ogg stream (eg http://ruby.keennotion.gr:8000) and wait for the next song. The server status will show the next song but amarok wont update media info.
Then open the mp3 stream form the same source and wait for the next song. Media info will be updated in playlist and current track applet.

Using latest r992653

I can confirm this with Amarok 2.2-GIT, KDE 4.3.0.

The bug could be in Phonon or Amarok. Needs further analysis.
Comment 2 Mark Kretschmann 2009-08-23 14:27:23 UTC
On closer inspection it turns out that Phonon (xine backend) does not emit metaDataChanged() when the track changes in an Ogg Vorbis stream.

Example stream:
http://demovibes.de:8000/necta128.ogg

KDE version: 4.3.0

I assume this is a Phonon bug, so I'm reassigning.

Patch to solve the metadate problem.

The problem is caused because the backend expects a XINE_EVENT_UI_SET_TITLE to indicate the new Metadata though xine launchs a XINE_EVENT_UI_CHANNELS_CHANGED.

Adding the behaviour of the NewMetaData event to the UiChannelsChanged event works for kaffeine but fails randomly on amarok where the old metadata would be kept sometimes and fails always on the OSD of amarok which would display the old metadata.
