[Bug 11805] New: WMP stops playback after few seconds

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11805

Summary: WMP stops playback after few seconds
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.56.
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: download, regression
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Somewhere after Wine 0.9.53 playback in Windows Media Player is broken: it
plays for a few seconds then stops.  Using native quartz/devenum has no effect.
I'll do a regression test.

Which version of WMP? Did you need to install any additional codecs? Is there a
sample video file that shows the problem?

WMP 9, no additional codecs required; I tested a plain mp3 file.  Here is an
MP3 which I don't think there should be any copyright on :)

The regression was caused by the following commit; adding patch author to CC

Can you attach the output of +quartz and/or +mpeg3? The patch was actually
intended to make sure mp3 playback *doesn't* stop prematurely (and seems to
work).

Output with +mpeg3

Here is the output with +mpeg3.  I didn't include quartz since both native and
builtin quartz have the same problem with Wine's MP3 codec.

The line 'Not supported!' is printed several times, and seems to have appeared
together with the regression.

Handle mp3 decoder errors

Does the attached patch fix the issue? Seems the mp3 codec didn't properly
handle decoder error conditions. Note that this patch may cause console spam,
but it's another patch to fix that.

Yes, this patch makes MP3s play again.  Thanks for the quick fix!

I do hear some minor skipping noises, though, which were not present in earlier
Wine versions.  This happens with both native and builtin quartz, and only with
MP3 files.

For me in git, plays fine for a couple seconds, then starts to stutter. At
about 4 seconds, hangs, then picks up at 7 (console shows a crash, then my
console reverts to a WEIRD encoding). I'll attach the output.

The initial crash(es) seem to be due to some services/drivers that are started
automatically. The actual MP3 crash is probably due to the decoder corrupting
the data (in Morrowind, for example, the MP3s will skip and play noise on
occassion, like it's getting junk data; depending on the MP3 and the actual
corruption, it could crsah instead).

I think what needs to happen to fix that is to change winemp3.acm to have
libmpg123 decode the data, instead of trying to maintain old mpg123 code. That
should help it cope with errors better as we'll have a clear path from the lib
where we can get errors from, and let the lib improve itself to handle
corrupted data better.

Bug still present with latest git (1.1.22), WMP9 and WMP10. Playback stutters
and lasts for a few seconds before crashing.

Still present in 1.1.29 need a working media player for multimedia apps that
use it such as CBTs to display video.

In current git (1.2), WMP9 and the ALSA driver in winecfg, I was able to listen
to entire songs encoded in mp3 and it did not crash.

Can someone else test and confirm if this is fixed?

Mp3 playback has been working in WMP9 since the change to libmpg123.
