Try the VLC or even the gstreamer backend. The Xine phonon backend is unmaintained upstream - and not recommended for quite some time. KDE:UpdatedApps only has stable (upstream) versions, except for very special cases. My first post was meant as an information for packegers. If Amarok does not recommend any backend as depency, then some users may have troubles. Amarok depends on phonon for actually generating sound, the backends are handled by phonon. Phonon has an rpm recommends for a backend, which means a backend will be installed unless a user specifically overrides it. To make sure you have the necessary recommends you can always run: zypper inr I do not hav any, cause I use Amarok 2.4.3. and Xine as backend. I do not want to use any other backend than Xine, everything with multimedia runs fine for me, since Xine exists (Digikam does not play videos - I got the advice: use gstreamer and dragonplayer to no avail! I think there is a little bit do you until we have a kind of standart). gstreamer is the recommended backend, vlc is a good alternative. The xine backend has not been worked on in a long time and if it still works at all at this point it is just luck, and it will almost certainly have serious bugs. If, as you said, you only use stable software, you should not use the xine backend, since it is unsupported and untested for the last few releases of phonon. It probably will not be in the next openSUSE release at all. -Todd ___ Packman mailing list Packman@links2linux.de http://lists.links2linux.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/packman

If Amarok does not play, nobody should tell to use another backend, if the backend is working. So it is a bug in Amarok 2.5 If, as you said, you only use stable software, you should not use the xine backend, since it is unsupported and untested for the last few releases of phonon.

I am the tester! My other old computer is build 1999 and it is unsupported since now 10 years, but it is working fine and running stable - so what?
