I do have the same problem with rhythmbox, so maybe something's wrong with my file library or podcast lists. However, this is not a reason for crashing. I have already tried to recreate the media library by deleting the .db file, but the error returns when I add again the media directory and my favourite podcasts.

I attached the log file.

Comment 2 Bertrand Lorentz 2014-01-19 17:05:06 UTC 
Thank you for your bug report.

There seems to be bug in the SoundTouch library, which we use (through GStreamer) to do BPM (Beat Per Minute) detection.
See for example:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/banshee/+bug/1193667

According to that bug, the problem should be fixed in soundtouch version 1.7.1-5.
Could you check which version you have installed on you system ? The name of the package should be "libsoundtouch0".

As a workaround, you can disable BPM detection through the preferences dialog, under Source Specific > Source:Music > Automatically detect BPM
Or you can use gconf editor to unset the
/apps/banshee-1/plugins/bpm/auto_enabled key
Comment 3 Philippe 2014-01-20 10:35:17 UTC 
Bingo, my libsoundtouch version is below 1.7.1-5:

ii  libsoundtouch0 1.7.1-2      amd64        Sound stretching library


I disabled BPM detection and it seems to work now. Thank you! Will try to find a newer version of libsoundtouch0 for ubuntu.

Best
Philipper
Comment 4 Philippe 2014-01-20 16:07:47 UTC 
Resolved by installing the libsoundtouch0 package 1.7.1-5 from trusty:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libsoundtouch0

Thank you for your help!

Well, libsoundtouch is not part of Gnome as far as I know, then I will mark this with the proper status :) Thanks for testing, and thanks for informing us.
