Description Shlomi Fish 2011-04-19 11:09:03 UTC 
Version:           2.4.0.90 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

After I renamed an .ogg file to "p%.ogg" (P-percent-dot-ogg without the quotes) and did "amarok -a p%.ogg", then Amarok displayed the file in the playlist, but it was unable to play it upon doubleclick. It plays files with no "%" signs properly, including .ogg/.mp3/.mp4/.flv/.mod/.s3m/.it/.xm.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Copy an ogg file to a file called "p%.ogg" (without the quotes).

2. Do "amarok -a p%.ogg" while Amarok is running.

3. Try to double click to play it.

Actual Results:  
Amarok won't play the file.

Expected Results:  
Amarok should play the file.

I'm on Mandriva Linux Cooker on x86-32.

Which Phonon backend do you use? This could be a duplicate of bug 198008 or bug 266719.

I'm using the gstreamer Phonon backend.

I should note that Amarok is also unable to play other files with percent signs in their filenames ("%"): I tried with .mp3, .flv and .xm, containing a percent sign and they all didn't play properly.

What version of the backend?

reassigning to the new bugzilla product for better bug tracing of the various backends. Sorry for the noise.
