Example of a buggy OSD

Version:           2.4-GIT (using KDE 4.5.3) 
OS:                Linux

For some songs, the OSD doesnt display correctly the text (artist - title (album)). See attached screenshot.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
It doesnt happen on all songs, only on some, but it happens everytime on theses songs. It happens with long titles where the OSD has to be resized.
My guess is taht there are 2 text being rendered (text + halo/shadow) and only the layout of the text is update when the OSD is resized, not the halo. 
  

Actual Results:  
You can see the text on a single line (in black) and the halo on 2 lines.

Expected Results:  
The halo should display under the text.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.35.3.100826
Compiler: cc
KDE packages from kde-qt experimental-snapshots

Hi there, 
I am not able to reproduce the problem here on my Kubuntu 11.10 running KDE 4.7.3, with Amarok 2.5.
All songs in my library are good with the OSD.
However, it would be really helpful if you upgrade to the latest release of Amarok 2.5 and let us know if the problem still persists for you. 
Thanks,

AFAIK this is solved since quite some time.
Comment 3 Ben Gouhier 2012-01-03 11:01:53 UTC 
Well I still have the issue with amarok 2.5.0 and kde 4.8 RC. Maybe it comes from my old video card (radeon xpress 200m). The issue is present with or without desktop effects.

Thank you for the feedback. Kevin, any ideas?
Comment 5 Ben Gouhier 2012-01-27 10:33:37 UTC 
Just an update, i regularly see the same issue on a different archlinux system: KDE4.8, amarok 2.5 and Nvidia drivers.
Comment 6 Mayank Madan 2012-11-30 09:13:43 UTC 
It is not reproducible 2.6-git
Comment 7 Myriam Schweingruber 2012-11-30 10:20:59 UTC 
Ben, can you please test if this was solved in Amarok 2.6?
Comment 8 Ben Gouhier 2012-12-09 03:16:41 UTC 
Still here in 2.6.0 with arch linux and kde 4.9.90
Comment 9 Myriam Schweingruber 2012-12-09 13:12:46 UTC 
Thank you for the feedback.
Comment 10 Ralf Engels 2013-02-03 19:18:39 UTC 
Same issue as the other OSD bug.
Since the text and it's shadow have different sizes you could run into the problem that the texts are broken in differen places.
