Mopidy not playing anything since last apt-get upgrade

General
1

I am using mopidy on a rasberrypi b+. Yesterday I did an apt-get upgrade, since which mopidy is unable to play any sound at all, not only streams but also playing local files fails. In the log file I see the message

2015-04-29 06:43:19,732 WARNING [2329:MainThread] mopidy.audio.gst: Element doesn’t implement handling of this stream. Please file a bug.

Playing files directly with gst-launch-0.10 works, so it doesn’t seem to be a gstreamer problem as such. I have modified /etc/init.d/mopidy to start mopidy with the -v parameter, but this doesn’t yield more information.

I have tried podcasts, soundcloud, radio streams and local files (ogg), none of them play, the result is always as described above.

What irritates me: Debug options aren’t working at all as promised in the man page:

user@raspbian ~ $ sudo -u mopidy mopidy --config /usr/share/mopidy/conf.d:/etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf config -v
usage: mopidy config

unrecognized arguments: -v
user@raspbian ~ $ sudo -u mopidy mopidy --config /usr/share/mopidy/conf.d:/etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf config --save-debug-log
usage: mopidy config

unrecognized arguments: --save-debug-log

I am also slightly irritated about how many different versions of mopidy are in the archive:

jr@raspbian ~ $ which mopidy
/usr/bin/mopidy
user@raspbian ~ $ LANG=C apt-cache policy mopidy
mopidy:
Installed: 1.0.3-1
Candidate: 1.0.3-1
Version table:

Downgrading to 1.0.2 brings sound back.

Try mopidy --config /usr/share/mopidy/conf.d:/etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf -v config, the sub-command config doesn’t know about -v.

Downgrading to 1.0.2 brings sound back.

    I'll try the rest later, have to rush for work now

Also see https://docs.mopidy.com/en/latest/troubleshooting/#debugging-gstreamer as we probably want a GStreamer log since this is an audio issue, and since it’s likely yet again related to queue setting for the tee :frowning:

So my guess is deleting the line with max-size-time ( https://github.com/mopidy/mopidy/blob/develop/mopidy/audio/actor.py#L172) will fix this. We’ve been through a few iterations of tweaking this and sadly each try breaks for someone new in a different way :confused:

same thing here after apt-get upgrade. removing the line 175 does indeed restore playback functionality.

Thanks for confirming my suspicion. I’ve reopened https://github.com/mopidy/mopidy/issues/1147 and well try and get out a 1.0.4 later today. This time I give up and we’ll just removes this as there are just to many corner cases we seem to be getting wrong.

I would grateful if both of you could update the bug with the audio config you are using and ideally also mopidy deps output so we have a better idea of what to test against in the future. As I would rather stop using our users as Guinea Pigs for fixing this type of thing.

Mopidy 1.0.4 is out now. It will hopefully fix this issue.

I have the same issue with version 1.1.1

Any tips what can be wrong?

Mopidy config:
[audio] mixer = software mixer_volume = output = alsasink buffer-time=300000 latency-time=20000

I have the same error (also mopidy 1.1.1-1). Mopidy worked fine last saturday. Since the apt-get upgrade on sunday, playback is silent. I get the following error in /var/log/mopidy/mopidy.log

2015-12-15 22:37:13,518 WARNING [5950:MainThread] mopidy.audio.gst: Das Element kann diesen Datenstrom nicht verarbeiten. Bitte schicken Sie einen Fehlerbericht.

which translates to the same error in message 1.

so, mopidy is playing again for me. but only if I start it as my user like this: mopidy. the way I used it beforehand was like this sudo service mopidy start. which worked fine, as long as it worked.
