Description of problem: Using the slider in the bottom-right of the Amarok window does not work with FLAC files. Attempting to reposition the slider only causes the slider movement , as well as sound output to halt (although the analyzers continue to animate). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): amarok-1.4.7-2.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Begin playback of a FLAC file in Amarok 2. Move the song position slider Actual results: Audio playback ceases and the slider freezes position Expected results: The current play position is adjusted as with any other type of file
fwiw, this would be an ideal candidate to report upstream to bugs.kde.org. Much more likely to see the issue addressed by upstream devs.
Could you try playing the files in Kaffeine and see if you can reproduce the bug there ? If the bug is there too, then it comes from xine. Also, please try the workaround described here : http://amarok.kde.org/forum/index.php/topic,13977.0.html
*** Bug 305451 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Definitely a xine-bug. I don't have kaffeine, but when playing flac files with the xine player, the same behaviour occurs. The result is not due to a missing seektable. I checked and my flac files dó have a seektable. So, the workaround doesn't help. Can this be forwarded as a xine bug? xine 0.99.5-1.lvn7 (x86_64) xine-lib 1.1.7-1.fc7 (x86_64)
Reassigning -> xine-lib
Works fine for me in amarok, gets stuck for a fraction of a second in kaffeine usually but sometimes completely stuck, and always completely stuck (until moved again) in xine. Clicking the slider instead of sliding it in kaffeine seems to get it stuck less often. Same results with xine-lib 1.1.7 and 1.1.8.

Bug still present in Fedora 9 (still not fixed upstream?)
I believe this is not actually a bug in xinelib. It can't seek in FLAC files due to the lack of seek points in some files (such as those created by SoundJuicer). ffmpeg can be used to create seekpoints in FLAC files.
Peter, you must have missed my comment #4: even files with seekpoints can't be seeked. To be sure I've tested again with amarok and xine-player. Amarok just doesn't seek at all (both with and without seektable) xine-player seeks in a very buggy way: it stops and restarts a minute later in the file, while the seek is set each 10 seconds, or sometimes it completely stops and 15 seconds later xine exits with an error (both with and without seektable) Components: xine x86_64 0.99.5-1.lvn8 xine-lib x86_64 1.1.12-2.fc9

Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
I just tested a flac that has seek tables on F-10 x86_64, xine-lib-1.1.16.3-2.fc10: - Works fine with amarok-2.1.1-1.fc10.x86_64 - kaffeine-0.8.7-3.fc10.x86_64 and xine-ui-0.99.5-11.fc10.x86_64 have same issues as in comment 6. So, reopening, but the fact it works fine in amarok (xine is the only phonon backend I have installed), I suppose it might not be a xine-lib problem after all, but maybe one in both kaffeine and xine-ui.

Comment 13 still applies exactly as is with: xine-ui-0.99.5-16.fc11.x86_64 kaffeine-0.8.7-7.fc11.x86_64 xine-lib-1.1.16.3-2.fc11.x86_64 (Not tested with amarok.)
It would appear from some reports that xine-lib-extras-freeworld's ffmpeg decoder is to blame here. Anyone seeing this *without* -freeworld installed?
In the meantime, if someone could share with me a .flac file that exhibits this problem for testing, I'd appreciate it.

Note: My machine used for this test runs fedora 10. I tried kaffeine and seeking works with a .flac file. I tried the same in amarok and I can't seek - when moving the song position slider it still jumps back to an area around the old position - and sometimes a small part of the audio is skipped. To comment #16: I removed xine-lib-extras-freeworld and restarted amarok and kaffeine. I see no difference with and without this package. Versions: xine-lib-1.1.16.3-2.fc10.x86_64 xine-ui-0.99.5-16.fc10.x86_64 xine-lib-extras-1.1.16.3-2.fc10.x86_64 xine-lib-extras-freeworld-1.1.16.3-1.fc10.x86_64 xine-plugin-1.0.1-4.fc10.x86_64 xine-lib-pulseaudio-1.1.16.3-2.fc10.x86_64 amarok-libs-2.2.1-2.fc10.x86_64 amarok-utils-2.2.1-2.fc10.x86_64 amarok-2.2.1-2.fc10.x86_64 kaffeine-0.8.7-3.fc10.x86_64 kaffeine-libs-0.8.7-3.fc10.x86_64
Tested this on f12, and seems to be more phonon related now. xine-ui was (mostly) ok, both kaffeine (kde4/phonon based) and amarok behaved similarly, where seeking *kinda* worked, but just not all that reliably. Fwiw, tested both xine/gstreamer backends, and a bit surprisingly, -xine worked a little bit better here.

Appears to work ok in F-13 with dragon, kaffeine and xine.

I have tested a flac file with amorak today with Fedora 12 with all updates as today and I cann't move the slider as I can do it with other audio formats. Moving the slider with the mouse let the slider jump back near to the old position - maybe moved a very small drift. So the problem still exists with Fedora 12.
Reopening and retargeting based on comment #24.

Issue persists as described in comment 24 in F13.
It's going to persist as long as phonon-backend-xine is used (and xine-lib continues to not support this). (Maybe either phonon-backend-vlc or -gstreamer can be better in time for f15, who knows)
