rhythmbox regression: doesn't play next song in list

Can you reproduce this with a smaller amount of music - e.g. 10 ogg vorbis tracks? Also could you give the exact steps to reproduce this problem e.g.:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start rhythmbox
2. Press Ctrl-N to make a new Playlist.
3. Press the right mouse button over the new playlist and choose rename. Type test and then return.
4. Click on Library in the Soure pane at the left.
5. Drag 5 ogg vorbis music tracks from the bottom right hand pane to the test playlist.
6. Click on the test playlist.
7. Ensure that shuffle is on.
8. Click on the first track in the playlist and then click the Play button.
9. Let the track play to completion.

Expected result:
Second track to start playing

Actual result:
Second track does not start playing.

1.) Start RB
2.) From within the mail library, or a playlist, click the play button
3.) Minimize RB and switch to a different virtual desktop
4.) When song ends it will switch to a different song and you get the pretty libnotify notification from your tray
5.) Song does not start and just hangs

Expected Result:
Next track should start playing

Actual Result:
RB switches to next track and stops with the play button still depressed. It isn't even going to pause, it just hangs unless you manually drag the slider forward a second or so. This problem also happens when manually playing a track eg: doubleclicking on a song from within the RB interface.

I tried this on my ~4500 song music library, a 20 file mp3 playlist, and a 3 file ogg playlist with the same results. I don't think it has anything to do with the filetype.

Thanks for your bug. Do you minimize of iconitify it to the systray area? Could you run "rhythmbox -d" and note what the log does exactly when it switchs song?

It is *NOT* playing the songs unless I manually drag the slider forward. Any ideas or anything else I can do debugging wise?

I confirm this bug in dapper; i've got circa 100 mp3/flac/ogg files, rhythmbox plays only first song from the playlist, the other get a small red sign in the first column. In 'properties' dialog of every song there is a small note: 'not negotiated' (not translated like the rest of application).

Just like here: http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/2530/rhythmbox8vc.jpg

Tomasz your issue looks like a different one, please use a different bug
JeffSchroeder upstream would probably have better idea on the issue, do you want to forward it yourself on bugzilla or should we do it?

I don't know, when i tested that it seemed *exactly* like this one, i could reproduce it with the same steps which were given here. The slider-trick also works here...
Also I tried to use other players and I found that every player based on gstreamer plays only first song. This is why I reported second bug in gstreamer. I don't have now access to my ubuntu box, so I cannot check this one more time for a moment... I don't see this in my debian box.

Sebastien, would you mind doing it? the gnome bugzilla isn't liking my password today and isn't helping me reset it much.

Do you still have that issue? In which case we will forward upstream

Yes, it's still there. But i am not sure if the upstream already fixed that - i don't have that bug in debian sid, where there are newer versions of rhythmbox and gstreamer.

Good that you reminded me this bug, now i have more time so i'll check code from upstream.

maybe you could try with edgy?

I talked to gstreamer developer. After seeing error messages from quod libet (which i noticed yesterday), he said that it is probably something related to gstreamer-plugins-base, with resampling audio. He told me that they fixed many bugs in that module for 0.10.9. Installing 0.10.9 from sources fixed the problem, but now I would like to have clean solution... now my dpkg database is broken due to that i removed gstreamer packages without removing packages that depend on it. I'll probably just backport that package to dapper.

I got source packages of gstreamer0.10, gst-plugins-base0.10, gst-plugins-good0.10 and libvisual from edgy, recompiled and installed into dapper without any difficulty, works for now... and as I'm not going to hack this once more, this will probably wait until release of edgy. Thanks for help!

That works for me also

Probably a duplicate of bug #49714 which should be fixed with this upload to dapper-updates when it has built:

 gst-plugins-base0.10 (0.10.7-0ubuntu5) dapper-updates; urgency=low
 .
   * debian/patches/07_from_cvs_fix_non-negociated-error-with-playbin.patch:
     - patch from upstream, fix tracking switching with rhythmbox not working
       for some people by example (Ubuntu: #49714)

Feel free to reopen if you still get the issue with it
