  GStreamer | gst-plugins-good | Ver: 0.10.8
           Summary: id3demux can't parse id3v2 tags on PPC
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.8
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-good
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: alex at malexmedia.net
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Please describe the problem:
On PPC, id3demux cannot parse any id3v2 tags out of an MP3 file. Instead, it
defaults to parsing id3v1 tags, which results in a lower quality of
information.

This problem does not appear to affect x86. (Possible endianness bug?)

Steps to reproduce:
1. Tag a file with an id3v2 tag.
2. Use gstreamer to parse it.
3. Gape in horror.


Actual results:
Gstreamer fails to interpret id3v2 tags.

Expected results:
Gstreamer should interpret id3v2 tags.

Does this happen every time?
Darn tootin'.
