795623 - Cannot play a mp3 file from the sdcard on 9/28 otoro build - MPEG-4, MP3, AAC MIME types not recognized

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Audio/Video, defect)

Description

[Jason Smith [:jsmith]]

## Build

* Device: Otoro
* Gaia: dbe752c2bc61835a92469cb0e35ad5d938a754d5
* Mozilla Central: 5e9ba780a2f3db83364a87a7b976eafe4ae834b2

## Steps

1. Put a mp3 file on your sdcard in the Music folder
2. Start the music app
3. Click the album on the mix page

## Expected

The mp3 file should begin to play

## Actual

The player loads, but the mp3 file does not start playing. The time in the player shows 00:00 for both start and end. This was working a few days ago. Did something regress?

I can reproduce this on the 10-01 daily build.  This is blocking any mp3 audio to play on the Music app.   blocking+

Did the problem first regress in the 9/28 build?

:jsmith: what do you mean about the "mime types not recognized"? Are you seeing any kind of error message about that?

that was around the time that the kernal9 update was added to the otoro builds.  cc mwu, if he has thoughts.

I rolled back to the 20120927 build and I can play MP3 files on my device. The same file did not play with the 20120928 build.

adityab: as far as I know, mp3s never play on b2g desktop. You really need a phone to test the music app, or you need to transcode your music to ogg.

What's the error reported by the audio element? Edwin, did the landing of bug 759506 stop handling of "audio/mpeg" mime type?

Yeah it did. Testing patch now, should have it up in a few minutes.

Someone on our qa team should verify this as fixed.

This probably also needs to land on aurora.

Hi, 

I have checked that no ringtone issue when alarm goes off.
I got some error log during it goes off.
===== log =====
E/GeckoConsole(  106): [JavaScript Warning: "HTTP "Content-Type" of "application/x-unknown-content-type" is not supported. Load of media resource app://clock.gaiamobile.org/style/ringtones/ALARM_progressive_dapple.mp3 failed." {file: "app://clock.gaiamobile.org/onring.html" line: 0}]

Is the issue related to the bug?
Or should I file another bug?
I remember the issue have been fixed for a long time.
(Bug 788204 - Gecko doesn't detect MIME type of MP3 files)
Thanks.
