When the global menu option is in use, gnome-mplayer has no way of detecting that the menu is not actually in the window. Recently in SVN (v > 1.0.3) a gconf/dconf key was added named "enable_global_menu" this option should be set to TRUE when the gtk global menu is enabled.
I asked in launchpad on how to automatically detect the global menu feature so this key would not be needed, but the question was ignored. https://answers.launchpad.net/indicator-appmenu/+question/152538 See gnome-mplayer bug http://code.google.com/p/gnome-mplayer/issues/detail?id=501 gnome-mplayer packagers will need to patch the gconf or dconf xml schema to set the correct value to true so that the option is enabled properly. ** Bug watch added: cgc/p/gnome-mplayer/issues #501 http://code.google.com/p/gnome-mplayer/issues/detail?id=501 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/780346 Title: gnome mplayer continually growing playlist -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
