Confirm the same bug on 2.4.0, also on Fedora. Kind of makes Magnatune not very usable.

Comment 2 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-01-26 21:06:22 UTC

Confirmed by comment

Comment 3 Mihai Sorin Dobrescu 2011-04-17 08:13:01 UTC

It happens too on playing my local audio files on Mandriva 2010.2, KDE 4.5.5 taken for Mandriva from ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/4.5.5/, Amarok 2.3.1.

It is highly annoying.

Comment 4 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-06-04 12:16:12 UTC

This is an automated message from the triager:

Amarok 2.4.1 has been released on May 8 already. Could you please upgrade and test if you can still reproduce this bug?

Without feedback within a month we will close this bug as resolved.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hello,

I am so sorry that I can't. I use Mandriva 2010.2 (the latest stable) and 2.4.1 is the newest I could get from their repository. They have also KDE 4.5.5, which is pretty old.

I could only upgrade to Mageia or wait for Mandriva to release a newer version, but I did not decided which one yet.

Thank you for your feedback, I will leave this open in that case.

Hello,

I've migrated to Mageia.
It comes with and Amarok 2.4.1 on KDE 2.6.3.
I could say that behavior is correct, at least for albums I remember of doing the described issues.
I guess it is OK for now, you could close it.

Regards,
Mike

Thank you for the fast feedback.

Comment 9 K Ryabitsev 2011-09-12 19:02:11 UTC

I still have the same problem on Fedora 15 (KDE 4.6.5) with Amarok 2.4.3. Playback stops after each track.

Comment 10 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-09-13 00:02:35 UTC

Did you try with a different phonon backend?

Comment 11 K Ryabitsev 2011-09-13 12:45:55 UTC

You are right, the problem only happens with the GStreamer backend. When I give preference to the Xine backend, the problem goes away.

Comment 12 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-09-13 13:18:10 UTC

You should use the phonon-backend-vlc instead, the xine backend is deprecated.
