Thanks for the report. Could you try playing the file with gstreamer (the engine which rhythmbox uses to play files) from the command line? Something like
gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file:///path/to/your/file and see if the same happens there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1008605 Title: Playback stops for particular track after 1 min 41 sec (repeatable) Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 apt-cache policy rhythmbox rhythmbox: Installed: 2.96-0ubuntu4 Candidate: 2.96-0ubuntu4 Version table: *** 2.96-0ubuntu4 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status The track should play to completion, instead the track stops playing.
