[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 751575] Re: banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound

Tue Jun 7 16:30:16 UTC 2011

This should be reopened!  I'm seeing a lot of internet chatter about the
same issue.  Banshee at some point (this is within 24 hours of a
completely fresh install of Ubuntu 11.04 with the default installation
of banshee) just stops playing music.  I have only imported a single
time, which brought in approximately six thousand tracks, all of which
were from an iTunes folder so 100% of them are likely to be playable
with no codec problems.

Who knows what caused it, but the evidence of the error was as follows, when banshee was started from terminal and I then attempted to play files:
[Error 09:07:18.856] GStreamer resource error: NotFound
[Error 09:07:19.124] GStreamer resource error: NotFound
[Error 09:07:19.395] GStreamer resource error: NotFound

(one of these lines per attempt to click the Play button).

Unfortunately I cannot answer Kamus' questions asked to Pete above,
because I have already deleted ~/config/banshee-1/banshee.db and then
re-imported my media, and it fixed the problem.

Please do not close this issue; it's real and not someone's imagination.
But I realize you have to do that if someone does not answer.  If you
ask me follow-up questions I will attempt to answer them to the best of
my ability.

Title:
  banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound

Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: banshee

  I can no longer play locally stored music in Banshee.  I get no error
  in Banshee but if I start banshee from the command line I get the
  following error when trying to play a song:

  [Error 16:11:53.512] GStreamer resource error: NotFound
  [Error 16:11:53.789] GStreamer resource error: NotFound
  [Error 16:11:54.068] GStreamer resource error: NotFound
  [Error 16:11:54.350] GStreamer resource error: NotFound
  [Error 16:11:54.633] GStreamer resource error: NotFound

  When I run `banshee --debug` I get the following error:

  An unhandled exception was thrown: Could not read add-in description
