probably a dup of #98139 According to bug 98139, it says an entry has been added to the FAQ. The entry says: Why is there always a gap although I have crossfading enabled? Make sure you don't have gst-ffmpeg installed. Instead, install the gst-mad plugin. I'm assuming that you mean gstreamer-ffmpeg would show up as a package that I shouldn't have installed (I'm using Debian). However, I don't even think such a package exists. Here's a list of gstreamer-related packages available in Debian, the ones on lines that start with "ii" are the ones I have installed. Notice that none of them mention ffmeg, and that mad is installed. I deleted the gstreamer-* packages from the list (which are for the an older version and are not installed). ari@ari:~$ dpkg-query -l *gstreamer* Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-=======================-=======================-============================================================== ii amarok-gstreamer 1.1.1-2 GStreamer engine for the amaroK audio player ii gstreamer0.8-a52dec 0.8.7-3 ATSC A/52 audio decoder plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-aa 0.8.7-3 AA-lib plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-alsa 0.8.7-3 ALSA plugin for GStreamer un gstreamer0.8-arts <none> (no description available) ii gstreamer0.8-artsd 0.8.7-3 aRtsd plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-audiofile 0.8.7-3 AudioFile plugin for GStreamer un gstreamer0.8-audiosink <none> (no description available) ii gstreamer0.8-caca 0.8.7-3 Colour AsCii Art library plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-cdparanoia 0.8.7-3 cdparanoia plugin for GStreamer un gstreamer0.8-colorspace <none> (no description available) pn gstreamer0.8-doc <none> (no description available) ii gstreamer0.8-dv 0.8.7-3 DV plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-dvd 0.8.7-3 DVD plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-esd 0.8.7-3 Enlightened Sound Daemon plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-festival 0.8.7-3 Festival speech synthesis plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-flac 0.8.7-3 FLAC plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-gnomevfs 0.8.7-3 Gnome VFS plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-gsm 0.8.7-3 GSM plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-hermes 0.8.7-3 colorspace conversion plugin for GStreamer based on hermes ii gstreamer0.8-jack 0.8.7-3 JACK plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-jpeg 0.8.7-3 JPEG plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-mad 0.8.7-3 MAD MPEG audio decoder plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-mikmod 0.8.7-3 MikMod decoder plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-misc 0.8.7-3 Collection of various GStreamer plugins ii gstreamer0.8-mpeg2dec 0.8.7-3 MPEG1 and MPEG2 video decoder plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-oss 0.8.7-3 OSS plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-plugin-app 0.8.7-3 Simple GStreamer applications ii gstreamer0.8-plugins 0.8.7-3 All GStreamer plugins ii gstreamer0.8-sdl 0.8.7-3 SDL videosink plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-sid 0.8.7-3 C64 SID decoder plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-speex 0.8.7-3 Speex plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-swfdec 0.8.7-3 SWF (Macromedia Flash) decoder plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-theora 0.8.7-3 Theora plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-tools 0.8.8-1 Tools for use with GStreamer un gstreamer0.8-videosink <none> (no description available) ii gstreamer0.8-vorbis 0.8.7-3 Vorbis plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.8-x 0.8.7-3 X videosink plugin for GStreamer pn libgstreamer-dev <none> (no description available) ii libgstreamer-gconf0.8-0 0.8.7-3 GConf support for GStreamer pn libgstreamer-gconf0.8-d <none> (no description available) ii libgstreamer-plugins0.8 0.8.7-3 Various GStreamer libraries and library plugins pn libgstreamer-plugins0.8 <none> (no description available) pn libgstreamer0.4.1 <none> (no description available) pn libgstreamer0.4.2 <none> (no description available) pn libgstreamer0.5.0 <none> (no description available) pn libgstreamer0.5.1 <none> (no description available) pn libgstreamer0.6-0 <none> (no description available) pn libgstreamer0.6-dev <none> (no description available) pn libgstreamer0.6-ruby <none> (no description available) ii libgstreamer0.8-0 0.8.8-1 Core GStreamer libraries, plugins, and utilities pn libgstreamer0.8-dev <none> (no description available) pn libgstreamer0.8-ruby <none> (no description available) I don't have gst-plugins-ffmpeg either, yet there's an annoying gap.

*** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** By the way, I installed 1.2 beta 4 and this is still a problem. Yup, the same here :( IMO, there are two seperate main problems - a GAP before gstreamer loads the new song and the VOLUME JUMP after a few seconds of playback - which in different ways have been treated in at least these five bugs: 102708 - see my findings with this issue 99570 96689 99559 96680 - this bug total amount of votes for these problems: 335 three of those bugs "are still" UNCONFIRMED, two of them still "NEW" - for amaroks rapid development two three months is a considerably long time, however, there doesn't seem to be any progress - I used to check CVS almost daily, expecting "wild and sexy" bugfixes as well, not only features. no. Then - besides fixing this for the 1.3 branch, which will be instantly used by most hotheads and gentoo ~x86 folks, it would be really neat to have a fixed 1.2.x version for all those conservative (lazy?) distros out there, whose typical users wont see 1.3-series amarok for quite a long time. I really hope this will get fixed someday, but much sooner than debian will release 3.1 ;)) Can you update to 1.3 final and see if this is still happening? Using GStreamer as engine still sucks badly. :) Still happens with 1.3 final for me It's the same here. Very slow when changing tracks. I use svn version (Sun Sep 4 09:23:45 CEST 2005 <-- Brussels time ;-) ) This is fixed in amaroK 1.3.2. GStreamer engine was rewritten. |
