Due to quality assurance reasons we can't include the necessary changes. They are part of a greater code rewrite in phonon-xine which can, due to the very nature of untested software, cause a lot of unwanted side effects (crashes/bugs). This is also the reason the changes didn't get backported to KDE 4.1.
As for gstreamer: last I checked the backend was not working and doesn't (again quality wise) not messure up to the xine backend. Another reason is that we ship Amarok 1 by default, which uses xine, so in order to stay consistent and save disk/CD space the xine-backend is the way to go. -- knotify4 generating many interrupts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/216574 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
