Sorry for the previous comment and summary (I copied the URL in the wrong field
and pressing the return key sent the report although I didn't intend to do
that).

swfdec-0.7.2 seems not to be able to play the audio contained in the following
Flash file: http://randomfoo.net/oscon/2002/lessig/free_culture.swf.

When it comes to the audio, CPU goes 100% and it takes all memory available.
I'm afraid that this might be a leak.

Thanks for your help,


Pablo

This hangs on the second slide with latest git, please don't use such high
severity / priority. Thank you for reporting the issue.

Hi Riccardo,

thanks for your reply and sorry for setting the severity and priority so high.
(I'm afraid this is a long-standing bug in swfdec that occurs with the most
SWF
files I work with.)

Is there any way I can help with this? I cannot code, but probably I could test
the SWF file.

BTW, it seems that swfdec-gnome-2.22.2 cannot be compiled using swfdec-0.7.2
(since it requires swfdec-0.6). How about releasing an unstable version of
swfdec-gnome also, so that it could be used to test the unstable branch of
swfdec?

Thanks for your help,


Pablo

I think it's the first time it is submitted :)

Well you can test the git version periodically but usually when there is a code
fix the bug got closed too.

This is done intentionally but for the exact reason you have to wait words from
Benjamin. If you don't have the mozilla plugin and you are compiling the
source
there is a small player in swfdec source code, see player/swfplay.

Actually there was a similar report in bug 9874, but this issue with sound was
fixed. Although I get an error message when playing both files attached there:

SWFDEC: ERROR: swfdec_bits.c(161): swfdec_bits_getbits: reading past end of
buffer

I don't know whether this is already fine or it must be fixed further (I
could
report a new issue, if you confirmed me the new bug).

I can test the git version regularly, but the issue is that I don't know how
to
get the code. Would it be possible to add the command at the bottom of the
"Development source code" section on swfdec's wiki in a similar
manner as it is
written at the bottom of http://www.swftools.org/download.html?

Thanks for your help,


Pablo

See http://swfdec.freedesktop.org/wiki/Installation, if you have other
questions not strictly related to this bug please discuss them on the list.

Still not working in swfdec-0.8.0 (+ swfdec-gnome-2.23.4).

    $ swfdec-player free_culture.swf 
    SWFDEC: ERROR: swfdec_as_context.c(168): swfdec_as_context_abort: abort:
    Runtime exceeded

The error message is itself wrong, since it reports:

    free_culture.swf is broken, playback aborted.

I'm afraid it isn't the file what is broken.

Thanks for your work,


Pablo

It seems we shouldn't decode event sounds all at once but on-demand decode
them
just like all other audio sources.

It seems the free culture SWF uses a multi-minute MP3 as an event sound and
decoding that takes longer than allowed.

Still not fixed in version 0.9.2.

Will it be fixed before next stable release?

Thanks,


Pablo

I have no idea. I usually decide what I want to work on next whenever I have
the next feature done. The only way to make sure it gets in is to do it
yourself or make someone fix it.
