Chris Wilson (notgary) has assigned this bug to you for rhythmbox in Ubuntu:
On some systems, Rhythmbox can take a very long time (I measured 26 seconds every time) to start. When run through console, I can also see warnings about mDNS not being available. It turns out that when the "DAAP Music Sharing" plugin is disabled in Rhythmbox settings, both the warnings and the long delay go away. This Ubuntu forums thread talks about the same problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1947738 An ordinary user might be puzzled as to why nothing apparently happens when he tries to play some random MP3. Some possible solutions: - Fix the long delay with the plugin - Disable the DAAP plugin by default - Give the user some feedback that Rhythmbox is starting and what is causing the delay ** Affects: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided Assignee: Papercuts Ninja (papercuts-ninja) Status: Opinion ** Affects: rhythmbox Importance: Low Status: New ** Affects: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Rhythmbox long delay to start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1029267 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Papercuts Ninja, which is a bug assignee. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
