Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Magnatune plugin connect to the site and displays available music but when trying to play a track it begins moving to the next and a red 'forbidden' icon appears on the side of each one.
I haven't found a track for which this does not happen.

Sorry. From nautilus I double-clicked on a local mp3 file to open it. The wizard to easy install the necessary gstreamer ugly plugin worked very smoothly and then the magnatune plugin in Rythmbox worked.
So, the only improvement I would like to suggest could be to have the easy codec installation wizard start from the beginning when asking rythmbox to play a magnatune mp3 track.
Being Rythmbox a default application (with the Magnatune plugin just to be enabled) I expected that everything would work after enabling it.

Actually, by playing a bit with it, I got Rythmbox blocked several times when switching from a playing track to another one. Do you think I should open another bug for that?

Thanks,
Dario

confirmed.
playing music from magnatune fails until you install the gstreamer mp3 codec. the auto codec installer is not triggered

Changed in rhythmbox:
