  • Operating System: Fedora 28
  • Clementine version: 1.3.1 (clementine-1.3.1-24.fc28.src.rpm)

Initially a message box would pop up saying "gstreamer is missing a plugin" when trying to play wma audio files. I installed as many packages I could find in the fedora and rpmfusion repos for gstreamer(1) plugins (good, bad, ugly, ffmpeg, extra, libav).

Now when trying to play a wma, I see "buffering 0%..." indefinitely in clementine. If clementine is started in a terminal, a CRITICAL error is shown:

GStreamer-CRITICAL **: 16:49:22.835: gst_date_time_new: assertion 'year > 0 && year <= 9999' failed

Any ideas on how to solve this message? Also, which package is the necessary one for wma?

EDIT: wma do play if they are started automatically after another file in a playlist. Directly choosing to play a wma file fails with the buffering 0% message. Skipping in an already playing wma file stops playback with the same buffering 0% message.

here are the explanation 💯

Unfortunately, I don't see how those explanations relating to gstreamer help:

  • I have gstreamer packages installed, and .wma files play automatically when following a non-wma file in a playlist. "Buffering 0%..." shows up if trying to play a wma file directly or if skipping within a playing wma track.

  • The wma files play with other players including vlc, totem, mplayer

  • Clementine plays wma files in other distros such as Linux Lite 4.0 (based on Ubuntu 18.04)

Could it be some issue between clementine and/or the version of dependencies installed in Fedora 28?

Aside, the "Artist info" section of clementine does not seem to work in Fedora 28, but works in Linux Lite 4.0. Perhaps that's unrelated, but I thought I'd mention in case it's a hint.

I have the same issue on archlinux.
EDIT: The GStreamer-CRITICAL ... doesn't show in the terminal when clementine is started from command line

Thanks for confirming.

The GStreamer-CRITICAL message still shows up for me even when clementine is run from command line. Note that it does not necessarily appear immediately when launching.

wma is ASF. You need plugins-bad. Are you sure you got the 1.0 version of the bad plugins?
Whats the output of: gst-inspect-1.0 | grep asf

Which plugins-bad package are you referring to specifically? I have many gstreamer plugins installed:

There is only one release of bad from gstreamer, but fedora has several different packages which all have different plugins.
If think you should try removing the 0.10 versions and the i686 versions.

If think you should try removing the 0.10 versions and the i686 versions.

Is there a less invasive way of debugging this? Removing the i686 version would also remove wine and a ton of other stuff, while rstudio (essential to me) and exaile (no big deal) depend on the 0.10 version.

I have the same issue on arch linux using the normal clementine package as well. Tried downgrading the gst plugins and core a couple of versions just to see, but no dice. Compiled the latest from here and it works just fine now with wma files as far as I can tell.

wma files seems to be played without issue with the latest build from master on my arch linux too.

The problem is solved after upgrading to Fedora 29 and clementine 1.3.1 release 32.20181130gitd260c8b.fc29. wma files play fine now!
