Public bug reported: I have a Hardy Heron installation that is kept updated on a near daily basis. Since moving to Hardy I have been experiencing this problem where fast-forwarding into a podcast file ( mp3 / ogg ) causes the player to hang and need to ultimately be killed.
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=8.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=hardy DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 8.04" Package: rhythmbox Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: gnome Version: 0.11.5-0ubuntu8 I have attached a copy of an strace listing showing what was going on at the time the program froze. The program was 54 minutes long and when I move the slider bar to 31 minutes I get a hang that doesn't return. i ultimately had to kill the player with a HUP. I have experienced the problem with many different large audio files particularly podcasts. The strace was taken from the latest "Fresh Ubuntu Podcast" which is in ogg format and is approxiately 20 mbytes in size. I will also attach this file separately as an aid to helping debug the problem. ** Affects: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Hardy: Rhythmbox hangs when moving forward in Large file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242430 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
