  GStreamer | gst-plugins-base | Ver: git
           Summary: [oggdemux] fails to play ogg/vorbis files
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: t.i.m at zen.co.uk

     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Just came across these two Ogg/Vorbis files (possibly ripped using S-J in late
2003/early 2004):

http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/media/incoming/BobMarley-SoulRebel-track06.ogg
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/media/incoming/BobMarley-SoulRebel-track07.ogg

Both don't play with GStreamer, but with vlc/mplayer.

One errors out, according to the debug log because it can't find a chain
(rotten error message though), the other just silently EOSes and playbin2 hangs
forever.

oggz-validate has this to say:
serialno 0425719003: missing *** bos
536471: serialno 0425719003: Packet belongs to unknown serialno
(rinse and repeat)

Haven't investigated this further yet. Maybe it's just a WONTFIX, but then the
other players play this fine and we probably created the files back in the day.
