GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 727666
rhythmbox crashed with signal 7 in rb_player_gst_find_element_with_property()
Last modified: 2018-05-24 18:13:23 UTC
Crash when clicking a file to play. See downstream bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/1212847
Created attachment 273628 [details] Stacktrace
Same here on Fedora 21 See downstream bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1182698
Can you please run 'rhythmbox -D player' in a terminal, reproduce the crash, gather the output and attach it here?
Created attachment 295707 [details] rhythmbox -D player output Started with empty database. Import 76 ogg files. Attempt to play first ogg file - shows red minus. Attempt to play next ogg file - crashes. I saw another bug report about new versions of rhythmbox crashing on filenames beginning with a number - that could be related. The first file name is: 01-Prelude - Suite Bergamasque (C Debussy)-Daniel Estrem.ogg However, on a different computer (F21 desktop), rhythmbox works ok with already imported ogg and mp3 files, even beginning with a number. So maybe only importing is broken, and corrupts memory.
Version in F21: rhythmbox-3.1-1.fc21.i686 For both boxes I tested.
Previous version in F20 that works (importing, playing, etc): rhythmbox-3.0.3-1.fc20.i686

This looks significant: (19:35:53) [0x83a5ba0] [rb_shell_player_error] rb-shell-player.c:2443: playback error while playing: Failed to create autoaudiosink element; check your GStreamer installation What gstreamer packages do you have installed? > I saw another bug report about new versions of rhythmbox crashing on filenames > beginning with a number - that could be related.

As reported in the downstream bug, other players, including hovering over file in caja, and audacious work just fine. Maybe they don't use gstreamer? xmms also works - but I know that doesn't use gstreamer. gstreamer-0.10.36-11.fc21.i686 gstreamer1-1.4.4-1.fc21.i686 gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free-1.4.4-1.fc21.i686 gstreamer1-plugins-base-1.4.4-1.fc21.i686 gstreamer1-plugins-good-1.4.4-1.fc21.i686 gstreamer-plugins-bad-free-0.10.23-24.fc21.i686 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.36-12.fc21.i686 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.31-13.fc21.i686 gstreamer-plugins-ugly-0.10.19-18.fc21.i686 gstreamer-python-0.10.22-7.fc21.i686 gstreamer-tools-0.10.36-11.fc21.i686
It seems that audacious also uses gstreamer, as does caja. xmms and vlc do not. All four of those work.
