Version: 4.4.3 (KDE 4.6.x) (using KDE 4.5.95) OS: Linux Actually ffmpeg and mplayer can play ape format without problem, but phonon declare not support it yet. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open amarok 2. Browse ape file Actual Results: Ape file don't show up. Expected Results: Ape file show correctly. I found some older patch for phonon and author says it has been tested on magiclinux. And maybe some other format that backend actually support is not included too. http://ftp.magiclinux.org.cn/nihui/kde4/patch/phonon-4.3.80-gstreamer-ape_mediatype.patch http://ftp.magiclinux.org.cn/nihui/kde4/patch/phonon-4.3.80-mplayer-ape_mediatype.patch
Those URLs do not load for me. Please attach the relevant patches to this bug report. Thank you.
Also, please file individual bug reports for the affected backends, I am claiming this one into, though the gstreamer backend does dynamic mimetype listing, so I would expect that gstreamer itself maps a wrong mimetype causing this behaviour.
Created attachment 56313 [details] phonon-gstream patch for ape
reassigning to the new bugzilla product for better bug tracing of the various backends. Sorry for the noise.
Sorry, we seem to have missed your patch. Could you please submit it to http://reviewboard.kde.org? Thank you.
