Version: 1.3-beta2 (using KDE KDE 3.3.2) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: gcc 3.3.4 OS: Linux this is using xine engine with xine-lib 1.0.1 (this is the only engine on my system that supports musepack files) simply start playing a musepack file (.mpc), press pause and then play. it crashes every time I try on any musepack file I have. my version of amarok is stripped so a backtrace will probably not contain any relevant info but I can give one if requested. this might be linked to bug #99199, but these crashes are not random so I don't think it is.
an addition to my bug report, the machine on which I reproduce the bug is a pentium IV with HT enabled and kernel 2.6.11.9. I have since then tried it on a different machine with kernel 2.4.29 and no smp (single K6 II) and cannot reproduce the crash. the xine library is the same on the same version of slackware.
Seems to be a bug in xine-lib, as amaroK works with all files formats the same way. Can you reproduce this with xine?
no I can't. xine, on its own, works fine. I had it suggested to me that it might have been the way xine was compiled (package straight from slackware) but I since recompiled it on the actual machine with the bog standard ./configure && make && make install and still did the same thing although not every time anymore. I have now just updated to amarok 1.3 and xine-lib 1.0.2 and it seems more stable than xine-lib 1.0.2 (self compiled) and 1.3-beta3. I'll keep testing. but the problem is that when it crashes it doesn't always try to send the backtrace email but hey. we'll see
if you can manually generate a backtrace by running the amarokapp executible in gdb, that might be able to provide us with a backtrace. Otherwise, there won't be much that can be done.
