Description bartek 2007-02-03 12:06:23 UTC 
Version:           1.4.x (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc-4.1.1 
OS:                Linux

Sometimes during the playlist loading or adding files to playlist(6k songs), when I use search filter Amarok freezes and need to be killed.

Amarok is not really designed for huge playlists--We much prefer that you use dynamic playlists.  At the same time Amarok should not crash while doing this.

thanks, it's good solution for me :) 
dynamics playlist are quite cool. I didn't use them before

This is still happening with Amarok 1.4.7.

I like all my songs in a single playlist so that I can quickly browse through it; sometimes I forget that the playlist takes a while to load (after starting amarok) and I start to search through it..then the freeze happens. 

If this issue can't be fixed, an ugly hack would be to disable the search box while the playlist is loading...
