Comment 14 for bug 164265

I had some time where I was doing a reinstall where I tried an Alpha release just to see if this problem was fixed... I think it was Alpha 4. I still had the problem then, but I haven't tried any of the later versions.

I think this can be tested by trying to rip a file to AAC format; as mentioned in the bug I linked in November the problem appears to be with gstreamer's AAC encoder (used in Rhythmbox's transcoding of files to an iPod for whatever reason) and not specifically with Rhythmbox; ripping files in that format also resulted in corrupt audio.
