I am often listening to music in shuffle/random album mode. In my playlist are many albums so I might have forgotten that the album I wanna listen to is already in the playlist - so I add it. If the album has been in there before and is now in the playlist twice it always jumps from track 1 from album x (position 2) that I just added to track 1 from album x that is somewhere else (position 1) in the playlist. So it's like this: album x, pos 2, track 1 album x, pos 1, track 1 album x, pos 2, track 2 album x, pos 1, track 2 ... ... Even though it helps to keep the playlist clean, I wouldn't mind if that "feature" is gone in a future release. Thanks! btw: the next album button would really be nice to have! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. set listening mode to shuffle albums 2. at two times the same album 3. Actual Results: Each song is being played twice Expected Results: Each song is being played once (no jumping between those albums)
Could you please test with amarok 2.9 beta?
(In reply to Myriam Schweingruber from comment #1) > Could you please test with amarok 2.9 beta? There is no deb file right? I downloaded the Amarok source from here: https://amarok.kde.org/en/node/887 and compiled it with cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` -Wno-dev and also installed all required dependencies but I still get at least one error: Could NOT find FFmpeg (missing: AVFORMAT_LIBRARIES AVFORMAT_INCLUDE_DIRS) but ffmeg is installed, libavformat-dev as well. I found some bug reports but no solution. also I'm not sure if this is an error: Found gmock and gtest but need to build both: /usr/include/gmock;/usr/src/gmock;GOOGLEMOCK_DEP_GTEST_SOURCES-NOTFOUND/gtest/include, GOOGLEMOCK_DEP_GTEST_SOURCES-NOTFOUND CMake Error at tests/CMakeLists.txt:143 (add_subdirectory): add_subdirectory given source "GOOGLEMOCK_DEP_GTEST_SOURCES-NOTFOUND/gtest" which is not an existing directory. So right now i can't test it, sorry
You can just disable the test framework (which is enabled my default for KDE applications) by adding the option -DKDE4_BUILD_TESTS=OFF to your cmake line
Any news on this?
Seems to work in Version 2.9 as expected. Thanks a lot, sorry I never did any testing!
