I think I've sort of narrowed it down. I tag all my files using MusicBrainz Picard and thought maybe that had something to do with it and so removed all the tags using Quod Libet. The seek bar then worked when playing the file. However when I retagged the file using Picard, the seek bar still worked when I played that file again. Does Rhythmbox cache seek information or something?
I'll look into this further. In the mean time I've attached a file that exhibits the problem. ** Attachment added: "Problematic MP3 file." http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19596903/01%20At%20Dawn.mp3 -- Seek bar doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296991 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
