Title:
Rhythmbox consistently fails on new installs trying to scan large home
directory
Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
I have a home directly with a lot of files (about 100GB...maybe
500,000 files) -- mostly for software development purposes.
Everytime I do a fresh install of 12.04 (x64) I have a problem with
Rhythmbox whereby when I first run it, it hangs for about 5 seconds
every 3 seconds. Then after about 1 minute it totally freezes.
Rhythmbox reports about 3000 import errors regarding misc files in my
home directory (that aren't even song files). I am unable to import
any songs from my library (about 5,000 songs).
My workaround is to use dconf-editor to remove my home directory from
rythmdb/locations (leaving ubuntuOne alone). I also have to delete
the ~/.local/share/applications/rhythmbox directory as well.
After that it starts normally and I can import my library and it works
great from then on. I feel that this is a pretty serious issue that
Ubuntu's default music player hangs and freezes on a brand new
installation...before a user even gets a change to change any
settings!
