Description Ken Wennemar 2013-04-15 02:56:00 UTC

kaffeine crashes when I am playing videos from a playlist and I click on the next button. I have to close the program and re-start it. On the second start the crash typically doesn't occur.

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce:
1.start kaffeine
2.build playlist by drag and drop from the folder in the playlist tab
3.start video
4.click the next video button
5. watch the video screen go black and watch the software quit responding.



Expected Results:  
The video should have advanced to the next item in the playlist.

I have cleared the playlist and added new videos to the playlist, still a black screen in playback tab when the video was accessed.

The Kaffeine version you're using is too old. We just released upstream a version 2.0.1, with is based on KDE5, and changed both the DVB and video play backends. Could you please test the upstream version and see if it works? The README file contains instructions about how to compile it. You can find it at our git repository:

https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kaffeine.git

As this BZ is on an old version that we're not maintaining upstream anymore, I'm closing the bug. If you find similar issues with version 2.0.1, please re-open.
