Description

hrev50198

When I attempt to play mp3 or wav files with MediaPlayer, MediaPlayer will claim about a general system error and then will crash (debug report attached).

If I attempt to play mp3 and wav files using SoundPlay, SoundPlay is now only able to play mp3 files: will crash while opening wav files.

If I attempt to play mp3 and wav files using Mplay everything is Ok.

If i attempt to drag a wav file inside XRS (as I was able on hrev50141) nothing will happen. The XRS executable is available here: https://dev.haiku-os.org/attachment/ticket/10922/Xrs1.3unbeta2.zip

If i attempt to drag a wav file inside XRS (as I was able on hrev50141) nothing will happen, and when I quit XRS, XRS will crash too.

On Haiku-os.org (here https://www.haiku-os.org/blog/barrett/2016-04-06_streaming_support_and_mediakit_development_weekly_report_4 ) Barrett suggested me to switch to a newer nightly image:

The ticket doesn't seem related to a true media_kit issue, it's probably related to a build permission we are discussing those days, I suggest you to try a newer image.

currently I'm on hrev50216 but I am still unable to play media files on Haiku.. What can I try to check? On hrev50141 everything was fine.

Well, seems that I was able to figure out the cause of the issue.

Using pkgman, some weeks ago I added the optional repository located at https://hpkg.mlotz.ch/ Well: I removed such repository, I switched back to hrev50141 and then I updated again Haiku: now everythings works fine as before.

Why?

I think good chances are that you installed a custom version of ffmpeg and it clashed after some Haiku update.

Closing the ticket as invalid.
