Description Lasse Pommerenke 2005-03-11 10:54:26 UTC
Please describe the problem:
While I was listening to my favorite internet radio station I ran into the
24h-disconnect German ISP usually impose on their customers. As expected,
rhythmbox stopped playing because the stream broke off. However, I couldn't
select a song from the library instead, it didn't seem to react to mouseclicks.
Also rhythmbox didn't let itself be closed, I had to kill it from a terminal
where I also saw it was using 99% CPU time.

Killing rhythmbox is a p.i.t.a. when one couldn't exit it cleanly before because
the whole music library has to be rebuilt...

Steps to reproduce:
1. Tune in to your favorite internet radio station
2. Drop the internet connection (however that is done...)



Actual results:
The music stops, but also rhythmbox stops reacting to mouse clicks.

Expected results:
The music stops, and I can select a song from the library in the meantime.

Does this happen every time?
unknown

Other information:
Rhythmbox runs on a computer behind a router, which loses the internet
connection every 24 hours.
