+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #757530 +++ Description of problem: After starting the play of a CD track and then pausing, it is not possible to resume playing without ejecting and reloading the CD. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhythmbox-2.90.1-17.git20110927.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. insert CD, select Rhythmbox for play 2. start play of CD 3. press the Play button to pause track Actual results: unable to continue playing CD Expected results: able to continue playing CD Additional info: --- Additional comment from Stuart D Gathman on 2012-01-02 18:16:39 EST --- Workaround after pausing: 1. mentally note track and position 2. exit rhythmbox 3. start rhythmbox again 4. select CD, select tract, 5. press play, slide position pointer --- Additional comment from Stuart D Gathman on 2012-11-18 09:27:53 EST --- This is still broken in Fedora 17. Please bump version instead of closing at F16 EOL. Another workaround: eject CD. Reload CD. Position to mentally noted track and position. This somehow seems easier than exiting and reloading rhythmbox. --- Additional comment from Stuart D Gathman on 2012-11-18 09:33:40 EST --- I think this is a rhythmbox problem, not gstreamer, because totem works ok.
I can confirm that this problem exists in both 32-bit and 64-bit Fedora 18, currently rhythmbox-2.98-4.fc18.
I just noticed that rhythmbox is a Gnome package. Perhaps it is having problems interfacing with LXDE on both of my systems.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 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.
