Public bug reported: Binary package hint: banshee
I used Rhythmbox up until upgrading to 11.04. Banshee is a nicer interface IMHO so I'm determined to get this sorted. Upon importing my music collection, which is stored on my media server, I was able to play my music but there was a terrible lag when going from one song to the next and I miss the first bit of every next song. Restarting the computer and loading up Banshee once again, this time from terminal, nothing will play and I am confronted with "Gstreamer Resource Error: OpenRead" ... I've also got "Gstreamer Resource Error: OpenWrite" errors on subsequent tries. This error message prints 4 times every time I click a new song to play. I thought it may have been a permissions thing, but after changing all the permissions I find out it's still occurring. The only way I've managed to get around it is by deleting the Banshee.DB config and re-importing my media.. which takes forever! There needs to be an update to resolve this as I've heard a few people are having the same issue. But thats just one part of the problem.. the lagging between songs is very frustrating... next time I reboot I will run a --debug and post the output for you.. Strangely running the command: lsb_release -rd reports I'm using 9.10 yet i've upgraded from 10.04 to 11.04 running the command: apt-cache policy banshee reports ... apt-cache policy banshee banshee: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1.5.1-1 Version table: 1.5.1-1 0 500 http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/universe Packages ...Again with the karmic release... is this where the problem lies perhaps? ** Affects: banshee (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798161 Title: Banshee on ubuntu 11.04 won't play until you've deleted config and re- imported music collection, then it lags horribly between songs, reporting that it is "buffering".. and you miss the first bit of the song To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/banshee/+bug/798161/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
