Description Hakan Bayindir 2009-12-10 20:18:50 UTC
Version:           2.2.1 (using 4.3.2 (KDE 4.3.2), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.30-2-686-bigmem

If a song ends during a copy to collection operation, amarok will not advance to next song and playback controls are stuck. Everything returns to normal when the operation ends.

How to reproduce:
1- Copy some music to a USB flash drive or a similar flash based, USb storage device (to launch many KIO s and stress the memory device so transfer takes long enough (see bug #218152))
2- A song ends.
3- Next song doesn't start, playback controls doesn't respond.
4- Audio continues as normal and controls return to normal.

Expected behaviour: Song playback shall not be disrupted by file transfers.
