Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 355951
Rhythmbox takes a long time to display track properties box
Last modified: 2008-02-11 14:25:00 EST
Description of problem: When the track properties box is first used on the currently playing track in Rhythmbox, the UI hangs. Sometimes this is just until the end of the song. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhythmbox-0.10.1-2.fc7 How reproducible: Often. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Rhythmbox. 2. Begin playing an album. 3. Right-click on the track currently playing and choose properties. 4. Wait and see if the Properties box is displayed. Actual results: UI hangs. Music keeps on playing, sometimes going on to the next track and the UI recovers. Expected results: Properties box shows immediately.
Please gather a backtrace of the hang (using the info at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StackTraces), and let me know the output of: rpm -qa "gstreamer-*", and which types of files are involved (ie. just MP3s, happens with Oggs, etc.) Testing with Fedora 8 would also help.
Happens with both MP3 and Vorbis files. rpm -qa "gstreamer*": gstreamer-plugins-ugly-0.10.5-2.lvn7 gstreamer-python-0.10.7-2.fc7 gstreamer-tools-0.10.13-0.1.fc7 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.6-1.fc7 gstreamer-plugins-bad-0.10.5-3.lvn7 gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.10.2-2.lvn7 gstreamer-plugins-schroedinger-0.6.1-2.fc7 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.13-1.fc7 Running rhythmbox -d, it doesn't appear to be a complete hang. I've attached a debug output, hope this helps.
Created attachment 240931 [details] Output of rhythmbox -d.
