<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">Hi Ralf,
sorry for not replying earlier. In any case, the bug in question ( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267319 ) got resolved as a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=290168 which was in turn resolved as WONTFIX , and I was told the approach taken by my patch was not guaranteed to always work (because a resource can change states back and forth before settling on a "play" state). I was next told that I should filter based on audio/* and video/* and then see if something that seems like sensible audio is getting emitted. I would prefer it if Phonon had a way to tell me that playing the media resource does in fact emit audio, which will make it less hacky.
So I think this review request should be closed because it is not the right direction.

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">This is a patch to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267319 , where Amarok refuses to enqueue many media file types that are supported by the Phonon backend.
It fixes the problem on Amarok by instantiating a
Phonon::MediaObject object and trying to see if it can load the local file. It
comes with the following reservations:
1. With Phonon-VLC all files (including non-media ones) are accepted. This
appears to affect dragonplayer as well, and seems to be a Phonon::MediaObject's
->setCurrentSource() related bug. ( I'll report it later. )
2. I didn't try to enqueue playlist files yet.
3. On my x86-64 Mageia Linux cauldron laptop, the phonon-gstreamer backend
often crashes Amarok. However, the same files also crash gst123.
4. I added some traces there to test something back when I was using phonon-vlc
- they are no longer needed.
Anyway, please look into it and see if you like the direction I'm taking.
