Poor recovery from empty stream
Last modified: 2009-10-05 14:26:54 UTC
Streaming management code does not recover correctly when a stream has been sent to the player with zero bytes. In that case the the player will not send track started (STMs) or decoder ready (STMd) events to SC. Under these circumstances it may also be the case that the various UIs appear to report that playing is proceeding, possibly because of a fallback-scenario in Source::songTime(). This only tends to arise because of a failure in transcoding. The cause of the failure is usually not visible anywhere as the various transcoder processes are usually invoked with a '--totally-silent' or similar argument.
I have spent considerable effort looking for a solution without finding one.
Treat empty streams as errors. Change 25438
