Hi ... I'm affected by this too. It definitely happens repeatably when switching from mp3 to ogg. It seems to pause for about 5-6 minutes and then start up again.
I added a sequence of mp3, ogg, speex, and aac to my play queue and captured rhythmbox's debug output. Here are the relevant parts from when I start playing (the gory details of loading my music library have been redacted). You can see the difference between when the track switches and when it actually starts playing by looking at the tick_cb messages - they show the same stream position for a long time, then finally switch. I've edited the file so this is more obvious. As expected it also pauses when switching to speex and aac. It seems like the pause gets longer each time. The question is ... is this a rhythmbox or a gstreamer bug? I believe I noticed similar behaviour in totem recently too. ** Attachment added: "edited debug log from rhythmbox" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34085303/rhythmbox_redacted.log.gz -- Playback freezes when playing ogg files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/456273 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
