Clementine plays one track and chokes.

When I play a track in Clementine I get this message about three seconds before the end of the track: ‘The stream is of a different type than handled by this element.’ The track ends and Clementine goes on to the next track. I ran Clementine from Terminal for the error messages and saw that gstreamer was implicated so I generated a list with: zypper search -si /^gstreamer/ > gstream-install.txt. There was nothing weird to my eye so I added Packman and libdvdcss, installed the Gnome packages, and switched to Packman. Clementine still chokes and the list changed to:

I start the track on line 34, get the error on 49, the message on 51, Clementine chokes, and the next track starts on 81.

So the question is, can you derive any useful meaning from this?

a lot of your gstreamer 1.0 packages are from OSS not packman while this might not be the cause it certainly doesn’t look good as most of the file format and codec support comes from the gstreamer plugins you have only ugly from packman the good and the bad are from OSS
what’s your repo list

zypper lr -d

as you’re on TW make sure packman has a higher priority then OSS if not packages might get pulled from OSS instead

I also noticed the limited number of packman packages. However, the packages you marked do not seem to be available in packman via Yast. Here’s the zypper lr -d output:

Repos 4-6 were added to accommodate Quod Libet and they are not otherwise needed.

you’re right I just checked and gstreamer-plugins-good are gpl lgpl with no patented code
your repo’s look good
I’d say is redo a vendor change to packman

zypper dup --from 8

if that doesn’t fix things maybe file a bug report

re: zypper dup --from 8, been there, done that. Just the same I’ll try it again in case the stars are realigned.

Since I’ve not seen any other problems reported here I’ll wait on a bug report. It’s not fair to raise the red flag early.

maybe your gstreamer cache got corrupted try cleaning it

rm -r ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/

try a different gstreamer based player like amarok or totem (gnome videos) to make sure it’s clementine and not gstreamer

Cleaning out the cache didn’t change anything.

I loaded Quod Libet and got the same error. However, Quod Libet lets me change the backend to Xine and that resolves the problem. I could find no such setting in Clementine. It would be satisfying to resolve the problem but I have other things to do so I’m letting it go. Thanks for your help.

Yesterday’s update included a raft of gstreamer packs and one of them, or a dependency, fixed things for Clementine.
