Package: phonon-backend-gstreamer Version: 4:4.6.0.0-2 Severity: critical When using phonon-backend-gstreamer, Amarok randomly stops playing sound at song change. In that case, the time counter goes on for 3 seconds, then stops.
It seems completely random : it can happen at every song, or can play several songs without stopping. Also, it occured only on automatic song change so far, not on manual song change. Note that only the sound output stops, all the rest of Amarok's interface is still responsive; and sometimes, if you wait a couple of minutes or so, the beginning of the song briefly plays for a second, and then both the sound and the time counter abruptly jump quite precisely to where the time counter really should be. In any case, manually changing song or position in the time counter makes the music play again instantly. This makes Amarok really unusable for music listening (let alone be used for a party) thus breaking it severely as a music player. Using phonon-backend-vlc gets rid of this problem, but it's not a satisfying workaround either, since it have other problems : the impossibility of manipulating sound output volume - completely breaking both replaygain and fade - and some crackling at the beginning of playback. Both problems affect every software based on VLC (I intend to submit another bug report about these issues if it hasn't been done already). Also please note that it doesn't seem to be a hardware-related problem, since the two computers I use Amarok on (a manually assembled desktop PC, and a Lenovo ThinkPad X200s laptop) present the same behavior. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages phonon-backend-gstreamer depends on: ii gstreamer0.10-alsa 0.10.36-1 ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-base 0.10.36-1 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 8.0.4-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.32.3-1 ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 0.10.36-1 ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.36-1 ii libphonon4 4:4.6.0.0-2 ii libqt4-opengl 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libqtcore4 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libqtgui4 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 ii libstdc++6 4.7.1-7 ii multiarch-support 2.13-35 Versions of packages phonon-backend-gstreamer recommends: ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-good 0.10.31-3 Versions of packages phonon-backend-gstreamer suggests: ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly 0.10.19-2+b2 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
