Description doutor.zero 2005-07-10 07:10:48 UTC
Version:           1.3 beta 2 (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs
OS:                Linux

amarok freezes after a collection re-scan, most of the time when its minimized and in the playlist are songs with accents (like 'Björk'), but not always (20% of the time its freezes anyway). This happens with SQlite and MySQL.

Turning off collection rescan makes the problem dissapear; and using older versions (below 1.2.3) also, until now, seems to solve this too.

I had the same problem with amaroK 1.2.3, 1.2.4 and 1.3 b1 and 2, and my language is 'pt_BR,'so maybe this can be a enconding problem?

Thanks

Sorry, but I forgot to say that all my music are inside a folder with accents.

Thanks

After testing all versions of amaroK since 1.2.1 now I can reproduce this freeze all the times I want (with any sound engine or with SQLite/MySQL)...

The freeze happens with all tested versions, since 1.2.1 to 1.3 beta 2 and is easy to reproduce: open amaroK and put some musics in the playlist (don't matter if they are with accents or not), minimize amaroK and do some modification to the collection folder (put new stuff or remove something) to trigger a rescan, wait some time until amaroK starts the rescan and maximize the amaroK window while the rescan is happening. 

The freeze don't occurs if there is no music in the playlist, if you wait for the end of the rescan or if you restore the window from the tray.

Thanks,
