Description Josselin Mouette 2004-07-22 09:57:36 UTC 
When Rhythmbox tries to connect to a webradio that doesn't answer, be it caused
by network issues or server failure, it locks up completely. There's no way to
cancel the current connection, the program doesn't react to mouse events, and I
have to kill it. As we have many network issues here, that means I have to kill
it tens of times a day.

Here's where it gets stuck:

Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.

+ Trace 48755

Yes.  This is very difficult to fix since it requires making GStreamer asynchronous.

Well, without changing GStreamer, it can be fixed using threads. This is quite a
large change, but it would bring many advantages.
