GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 73459
Nautilus hangs after playing MP3 using esound 0.2.24
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
When I view a directory containing MP3's and play one of them, when it is done playing Nautilus hangs. It actually hangs the whole system. I have to telnet or ssh in from a different machine and run nautilus-clean.sh to get my system back. This problem does not exist with esound 0.2.22.
I think this is a dup of the bug I fixed a while back. Please reopen if it is still a problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 79231 ***
I've got esound 0.2.28, and the problem persists. I doubt it's related specifically to esound, although according to my original report it may be. I can try downgrading again to see. I suspect one of the other libraries (gconf, bonobo, etc.) has exposed the bug. Nautilus 1.0.x desperately needs a refresh to be compatible with the latest Mozilla and other dependencies--I can't even compile 1.0.6 right now to try to track this bug down. I'm sure many people (my included) will not be able to upgrade to Gnome 2 and the new Nautilus for a while.
music-view is going to be replaced by nautilus-media, effectively making this bug irrelevant. So I am closing it.
