Version: 1.2.3 (using KDE KDE 3.3.2) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc version 3.3.5 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.5-r1, ssp-3.3.2-3, pie-8.7.7.1) OS: Linux When playing a stream from the internet (club977) when the system's netwrok load is relatively higher (bittorrent ISO download in progress) amarok will stop playing hte stream, it's gui wil freeze and CPU usage will max out at 100%. The only solution is to kill amarokapp and restart amarok. It's easily repeatable. gkrellm reports that network activity was a steady 100-140KB/sec DL and about 20KB/sec upload during the times when amarok regularly locked up, when net activity is low amarok will NOT lockup. My connection is capable of about 360KB/sec downstream (to me) and 50KB/sec upload (to the internet), so my connection isn't being maxed by any means running strace on amarokapp reports this following loop: ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 229608}, NULL) = 0 select(29, [3 4 5 8 10 12 19 20 21 22 23 24 26 27 28], [], [], {0, 2109}) = 1 (i n [5], left {0, 3000}) read(5, "\0", 1) = 1 gettimeofday({1112502812, 232579}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 232825}, NULL) = 0 ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 232958}, NULL) = 0 select(29, [3 4 5 8 10 12 19 20 21 22 23 24 26 27 28], [], [], {0, 5644}) = 0 (T imeout) gettimeofday({1112502812, 241477}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 244436}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 245225}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 245294}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 245351}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 245406}, NULL) = 0 ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 245542}, NULL) = 0 select(29, [3 4 5 8 10 12 19 20 21 22 23 24 26 27 28], [], [], {0, 12915}) = 0 ( Timeout) gettimeofday({1112502812, 261858}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 265088}, NULL) = 0 uname({sys="Linux", node="removed.for.privacy.reasons", ...}) = 0 ioctl(5, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 write(7, "\0", 1) = 1 ioctl(5, FIONREAD, [1]) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 270585}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 270657}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 270728}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 270783}, NULL) = 0 gettimeofday({1112502812, 270862}, NULL) = 0 write(3, "\1\0\n\0>\16\200\3\244\0\0\0\220\1h\1 \3\340\1\0\0\0\0"..., 868) = 868 ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [544]) = 0 read(3, "\34\360\336\266>\16\200\3(\0\0\0\255\324E\1\0\0\0\0\255"..., 544) = 544
what sound engine do you use? This reminds me of that issue with gstreamer and pausing live.fm.
gstreamer I think. On the Engine Tab in amarok's configurator the "Sound System" is BLANK, the only choices are the blank one, aRTs Engine and <No engine> The output devices is "esdsink" so I believe that's gstreamer...
I get the same thing, but always with streaming media, even when my connection isn't being otherwised used. I get a blip of initial network activity, then amarok freezes and uses 100% CPU. The streams work fine in Kaffeine, XMMS etc. In the 'Sound system' configuration box, I have two items - a blank entry and <no engine>. I presume the blank entry is arts, although it could be gstreamer as I do have that installed. Clicking 'About' does not give me any information.

We're currently investigating this (very strange) phenomenon of the "blank entry". None of our developers can reproduce it, so we're a bit at a loss here. Could you please specify 1) Your distro 2) KDE version 3) amaroK version And whether it always appears blank or just sometimes. Thanks.
Distro: Gentoo KDE: 3.3.2 Amarok 1.2.3 (unmasked via gentoo's /etc/package.keywords file) Under the "Engine" tab, Sound system is blank, choices are "blank", "aRTs Engine" and "<no engine>" It appears that the blank one is gstreamer, as the output plugin is esdsink. (tried changing to alsasink/osssink and no change in behavior) Clicking the "About" button next to the sound system choice does nothing..
Re: questions about the blank entry I'm using: Distro: Ubuntu KDE: 3.4 Amarok: 1.2.3 The entry is always blank (though I haven't been using amarok long). Any debugging you'd like me to do? I can recompile it with debug symbols very easily (I love Debian!), and can use gdb, let me know if I can help.
Distro: Yellow Dog KDE: 3.3.2, i think (not sure) Amarok: 1.2.3 same problem. this is an old G3 blue+white mac, kinda slow but works fine. it plays as well, it just has no name in the engine dialog.

Back to the original bug report: I don't know about the original reporter, but I've found that in my case the crashes only occur with some streams. In fact, all the ones that come with amarok that I've tried work fine. Here are some that don't: http://ogg.smgradio.com/vr160.ogg (Ogg Vorbis) http://www.smgradio.com/core/audio/mp3/live.pls?service=vrbb (MP3)

I removed the original amarok and amarok-arts (Ubuntu packages, version 1.2.3) before testing, so I definitely tested the right version. Here is the backtrace after the freeze occurs. Let me know if there is any other debug info you want, or some pointers to start debugging (though I'm not sure I'll get very far, and I don't have much time to look at this).

I'm still seeing this bug with with Amarok 1.3 (Debian packages, gstreamer engine) when playing Cool-Streams / Indie Pop Rocks.
*** Bug 112352 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I'm seeing this as well. Running Gentoo, amaroK 1.3.5, GStreamer engine with alsasink, gstreamer 0.8.10. I haven't noticed any correlation between the freezes & cpu being pegged and heavy network usage on my part (downloading or whatever), but I share my internet connection so someone else could be doing something. If you need anything else, just ask. Thanks.
Sorry for the extra posting. I forgot to say in the first one that the stream I usually listen to is http://radioparadise.com/ 128k mp3.
>I'm still seeing this bug with with Amarok 1.3 (Debian packages, gstreamer >engine) when playing Cool-Streams / Indie Pop Rocks. I have the same problem with either gstreamer and xine. At some point the playback stops and the software tries to buffer the stream again. Eventually the playback never comes back. Amarok does not crash -> it freezes and I have to kill the process. PC-Linux Kernel: 2.6.13-gentoo-r5 Qt: 3.3.4 KDE: 3.4.1 amaroK: 1.3.6
*** Bug 118635 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
It's easy to debug this, just run a shoutcast server, connect to it with amarok, stop the shoutcast server= amarok freezes.
easier way. (works with current amarok. Connect to a network stream, and then power off the firewall (or router) and amarok will go to 100% cpu usage. This happens with amarok 1.3.7 under kde 3.4.3.
*** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. ***
Since gstreamer 0.8 engine is no more in 1.4SVN, I'm thinking that the proper thing to do with this bug is close as WONTFIX, not to be offensive just practical.
