Description Werner Habel 2007-10-21 14:29:49 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

since a few days I do not get search results for album covers from amazon.de amymore. It just defaults to "new search".
all other localizations such as .co.uk or .fr still work properly.

Konsole gives:
QComboBox::insertItem: (unnamed) Index 5 out of range

Bug was first described in german here:
http://amarok.kde.org/forum/index.php/topic,14584.0.html

My System:
opensuse 10.3 / KDE 3.5.8 / Amarok 1.4.7-111.pm.5
Comment 1 Marcus Czeslinski 2007-10-30 19:55:22 UTC 
I can confirm this Bug.

Kubuntu 7.04, KDE 3.5.7, Amarok 1.4.7 (0ubuntu1~feisty1)
Kubuntu 7.10, KDE 3.5.8, Amarok 1.4.7 (0ubuntu3)
Comment 2 Harald Sitter 2007-10-31 11:40:15 UTC 
I really think this is an issue @amazon. The same query which is working for /us/ is not working for /de/, so I really think it's some problem with their server.
Comment 3 Jonathan Herdt 2007-11-27 21:36:04 UTC 
I changed the localization to French and was surprised to find out that the french amazon-site has many german cds with covers available.
Still an annoying bug, though
Comment 4 Fabian Zeindl 2007-12-29 10:46:22 UTC 
Is it not possible to change the query in amarok for the german server to work?
Comment 5 d.beckers 2007-12-30 23:05:53 UTC 
It is possible to change anything - do you know the exact line or just the sourcefile where the problem occurs?

Comment 7 Fabian Zeindl 2008-01-02 11:42:45 UTC 
The patch should fix the issue.
Comment 8 Fabian Zeindl 2008-01-03 15:39:50 UTC 
Can this be included in 1.4.9?
Comment 9 Fabian Zeindl 2008-01-30 12:50:22 UTC 
This bug could _easily_ be closed.
Comment 10 Mark Kretschmann 2008-01-30 13:55:55 UTC 
Thanks for the patch! The real bad news is though that Amazon is gonna switch off the "legacy" web services in March 2008, forcing everyone to use a new API.

If that's really gonna happen, then Amarok will suddenly be unable to fetch covers at all. We'll have to prepare something for Amarok 1.4.9 and release that ASAP.
