By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Jan Stolarek 2020-04-23 04:37:38 CDT
Back in the days (some 15 years ago) Amarok used to have no problems playing files in SPC format. (SPC is a Super Nintendo music format.) But I find that the support for SPC files is now at least partially broken. Most of the SPC files that I have on my drive don't play, although some of them do. Files are not broken - they play fine in VLC and Audacious, which I believe is thanks to gstreamer-bad plugins. (Maybe it's time for Amarok gstreamer backend?)
