GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 723884
rhythmbox crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_is_a()
Last modified: 2014-02-08 08:33:48 UTC
Operating system: Ubuntu 13.10 I was opening Rythmbox. This crash happens to me from time to time but I don't have a way to reproduce. It may be related to having played a radio stream and when reopening Rhythmbox trying to open the radio stream, but I'm not sure. I'm attaching the stacktrace I got from apport in Ubuntu, but I don't know if have the debugging symbols.

This appears to be a playback-related bug in a version of rhythmbox that uses GStreamer 0.10. GStreamer 0.10 is no longer maintained (no releases in two years, no commits in at least six months) so all I can suggest is upgrading to a newer version of rhythmbox.
