           Summary: mad element doesn't report bitrate for mp3 files with no
                    xing header
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal

1. gst-launch-0.8 -t filesrc location=mp3file_with_no_xing_header.mp3 ! \
        decodebin ! fakesink
2. observe lack of bitrate information

The naive patch I'm playing with (attached shortly) seems to fix this, and the
bitrate information reported is, well, good enough for me.  I'm not sure
reporting every bitrate change is a good idea, but I don't think dropping that
information on the floor is better.
