Description of problem: scanning files stops 59% through, it tells me my sound device doesnt work and its falling back to...nothing (though the sound device DOES work), when i play a file manually no sound comes out and the "time remaining in song" goes UP instead of down Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0.2 How reproducible: try to play music in amarok Steps to Reproduce: 1.run amarok, see the "audio playback device does not work, falling back to ." 2.let it start scanning media...it stops at 59% then continues to use massive amounts of CPU 3.try to play a file manually, observe that no sound outputs, the progress bar progresses exceptionally fast, and the time remaining and time elapsed numbers are switched (as though it were playing the file backwards) Actual results: amarok is pretty much unusable and i cant play anything or even build a library Expected results: amarok opens and i can enjoy my music Additional info: phonon settings show my sound card as there but testing it shows that it doesnt work...again it does work. i am using the xine backend.
OK, several issues here. We'll try to sort them. (But, for posterity, please file one issue per report next time). For not playing... let's see if it's a phonon issue... yum install kdemultimedia dragon <audiofile.ogg> or juk <audiofile.ogg> (do you hear anything?) Are there nonfree formats at play here? Is rpmfusion and nonfree/freeworld codecs installed?
sorry, for me it was a "amarok not working? file a bug!" kind of deal ill keep that in mind for next time yes, nonfree formats are at play (mp3), but i have all the codecs installed (from rpmfusion)(i can listen to my music fine with mplayer, and amarok before this update) dragon plays the file fine, but juk gives me the same status message (phonon detected [audio device] does not work, falling back to .) and "plays" the file with no audio, accelerated speed, etc. thanks.
Thank you for the report. This is an issue that needs to be addressed by the upstream developers. Please report this upstream at http://bugs.kde.org and add the upstream information to this report.
also, do any of the affected songs, contain any non alphanumeric characters in the filename (ie, like '%' or '#') ?
I am pretty much this is the kind of issue I just resolved today. try to install kdebase-runtime. It worked perfectly fine for me after that. I already wrote a e-mail to aurelien to include it as a dependence
amarok should run fine without kdebase-runtime, if not there's another bug somewhere. It worked fine the last time I tried it, I guess I'll go test that scenario again.
I am pretty much sure that you suggest it on the irc after with thomasj, I reinstall almost everything connected and deleted every i586 package I could :) and then reinstall again :).
Confirmed, makes no difference here for me, whether kdebase-runtime is present or not. What kdebase-runtime *does* allow you do to, is to configure phonon.
did you tried with a new installation where you still haven't configured phonon ???
yes, fresh user, f11/x86_64 in gnome.
