Description Philippe Gauthier 2009-07-24 15:39:08 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1. Make sure the Banshee.NowPlaying extension is installed.
2. Start playing a track.
3. An error dialog appears (playback continues in background). Click OK.

Stack trace:
An unhandled exception was thrown: La référence d'objet n'est pas définie à une instance d'un objet.

Other information:
If I delete the Banshee.NowPlaying.dll file, the crash no longer occurs. The code was also patched (see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585514#c1) to work.

After getting the Banshee.NowPlaying.X11.dll backend to load, the crash no longer occurs. From this I guess that the bug is only caused by Banshee.NowPlaying not having any backend available, and is probably not limited to Windows.

Comment 3 Matt Sturgeon 2011-01-22 16:50:44 UTC 
Is this bug still occurring without manual intervention, or has it been fixed in Trunk?
Comment 4 Matt Sturgeon 2011-02-04 01:22:47 UTC 
I feel this bug should be marked obsolete due to the number of changes since it's last report, and the fact I have not encountered this bug on Windows.
