Bug 268332

Summary: First 1-2 seconds are skipped after track change with Xine backend
Product: [Applications] amarok Reporter: Simon80
Component: PlaybackAssignee: Amarok Developers <amarok-bugs-dist>
Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE    
Severity: normal    
Priority: NOR    
Version: 2.4.0   
Target Milestone: 2.4.1   
Platform: Debian stable   
OS: Linux

Description Simon80 2011-03-13 00:42:28 UTC 
Version:           2.4.0
OS:                Linux



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Switch to the Xine backend
2. Find a pair of tracks that aren't separated by a gap in audio
3. Play the first track, wait until the end, and listen for the beginning of the second track

Actual Results:  
A small chunk of the second track (perhaps corresponding to some buffer size) is skipped, destroying the continuity between the two tracks.

Expected Results:  
The second track starts playing from the start. This isn't about gapless playback. Although at this point in time gapless playback should be a standard feature, the bug here is that Amarok isn't even achieving proper playback with a small gap.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-5-amd64
