 GStreamer | gstreamer (core) | Ver: 0.8.7

           Summary: Consumes all available memory until killed when playing
                    a certain mp3
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.8.7
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: High
         Component: gstreamer (core)
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: mark at xl0.org

1. Fetch the problem MP3.  A 50k chunk that reproduces the problem is at
http://excel.xl0.org/angelhead.mp3; the full 8MB MP3 is at
http://excel.xl0.org/angel.mp3.
2. Attempt to play the problem MP3 with rhythmbox 0.8.8 or Totem 0.99.22.
3. Observe that the player application will suck up all your memory until it's
killed.

Running the MP3 through mp3asm produces a version that no longer crashes the
player (http://excel.xl0.org/angelok.mp3); this is still kind of an ugly bug,
though.
