Bug#236171: rhythmbox: Unable to play streamed ogg-vorbis radio stations

[Alexandre Fayolle]

Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.6.5-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

The French national radio are available as Ogg-vorbis streams. Xmms can
play them, but rhythmbox cannot: after preloading, I get a blurp in the
speakers and then nothing. Sometimes the program crashes. 

Here are some URLs:

http://ogg.tv-radio.fr:1441/encoderfip.ogg
http://ogg.tv-radio.fr:1441/encoderfinter.ogg
http://ogg.tv-radio.fr:1441/encoderfmusiques.ogg

(note: the streams are sometimes offline, and you get an 404 error. This
is not related to rhythmbox. I think this is caused by too many people
being connected on the server)
