Description Luke Duncan 2009-07-03 09:35:57 UTC
Version:           2.1.1 (using KDE 4.2.4)
Compiler:          GCC 4.4 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

Amarok will not play songs that have a '#' in the file name. This is making several of my songs unplayable. The song names include the symbol so I don't really want to rename the files.

Amarok does nothing when trying to play the song. Renaming the file to remove the '#' and rescanning the collection allows for the file to be played.

Error: xine is asking to seek behind the end of the data stream

How to reproduce:
Rename any song file to include a #. Attempt to play song.

Expected behavior:
Should be able to play the songs fine.
