For Absolute Classic Rock, this is the content of the .pls file to be opened using Rhythmbox: [playlist] Title1=Absolute Classic Rock File1=http://ogg2.as34763.net/vc160.ogg ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: rhythmbox 2.96-0ubuntu4.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-29.46-generic-pae 3.2.24 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-29-generic-pae i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu12 Architecture: i386 Date: Tue Aug 28 21:20:53 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386 (20120817.3) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_CA:en PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: rhythmbox UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/1043039/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
