Public bug reported: I have noticed that Rhythmbox has been hanging regularly. I run Rhythmbox with cross-fading and album art switched on.
To see if I could nail down the issue, I ran Rhythmbox with debug messages switched on. When it hung I saw the usual flurry of tick_cb messages and then some other output. This is below: (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [tick_cb] rb-shell-player.c:3596: tick: [file:///home/jono/Music/Judas%20Priest/Living%20After%20Midnight/15%20-%20Ram%20It%20Down.mp3, 1316093214:290030000000(1)] (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [tick_cb] rb-shell-player.c:3596: tick: [file:///home/jono/Music/Judas%20Priest/Living%20After%20Midnight/15%20-%20Ram%20It%20Down.mp3, 1517049214:290030000000(1)] (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [tick_cb] rb-shell-player.c:3596: tick: [file:///home/jono/Music/Judas%20Priest/Living%20After%20Midnight/15%20-%20Ram%20It%20Down.mp3, 1718378214:290127000000(1)] (20:24:52) [0xa8e8b80] [volume_changed_cb] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:938: stream file:///home/jono/Music/The%20Who/Thirty%20Years%20Of%20Maximum%20R%20&%20B%20-%20Disc%202/22%20-%20Pinball%20Wizard.mp3 fully faded out (at 0.000000) (20:24:52) [0xa8e8b80] [volume_changed_cb] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:963: posting rb-fade-out-done message for stream file:///home/jono/Music/The%20Who/Thirty%20Years%20Of%20Maximum%20R%20&%20B%20-%20Disc%202/22%20-%20Pinball%20Wizard.mp3 (20:24:52) [0xb0802d50] [volume_changed_cb] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:926: stream file:///home/jono/Music/Judas%20Priest/Living%20After%20Midnight/15%20-%20Ram%20It%20Down.mp3 fully faded in (at 1.000000) -> PLAYING state (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [rb_player_gst_xfade_bus_cb] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:1759: got fade-out-done for stream file:///home/jono/Music/The%20Who/Thirty%20Years%20Of%20Maximum%20R%20&%20B%20-%20Disc%202/22%20-%20Pinball%20Wizard.mp3 -> PENDING_REMOVE (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [dump_stream_list] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:483: current stream list: (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [dump_stream_list] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:506: [playing] file:///home/jono/Music/Judas%20Priest/Living%20After%20Midnight/15%20-%20Ram%20It%20Down.mp3 (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [dump_stream_list] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:506: [pending remove] file:///home/jono/Music/The%20Who/Thirty%20Years%20Of%20Maximum%20R%20&%20B%20-%20Disc%202/22%20-%20Pinball%20Wizard.mp3 (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [dump_stream_list] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:483: current stream list: (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [dump_stream_list] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:506: [playing] file:///home/jono/Music/Judas%20Priest/Living%20After%20Midnight/15%20-%20Ram%20It%20Down.mp3 (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [dump_stream_list] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:506: [pending remove] file:///home/jono/Music/The%20Who/Thirty%20Years%20Of%20Maximum%20R%20&%20B%20-%20Disc%202/22%20-%20Pinball%20Wizard.mp3 (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [reap_streams] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:1477: reaping stream file:///home/jono/Music/The%20Who/Thirty%20Years%20Of%20Maximum%20R%20&%20B%20-%20Disc%202/22%20-%20Pinball%20Wizard.mp3 (20:24:52) [0x8c412e0] [unlink_and_dispose_stream] rb-player-gst-xfade.c:1408: stopping stream file:///home/jono/Music/The%20Who/Thirty%20Years%20Of%20Maximum%20R%20&%20B%20-%20Disc%202/22%20-%20Pinball%20Wizard.mp3 GStreamer-WARNING **: wrong STREAM_LOCK count 0 This may be something to do with cross-fading, so I have switched off cross-fading, restarted RB and I will see if the issue occurs again. I will report back if and when it does.
