Public bug reported: Hello,
I have some Norwegian radio channels which I listen to via the Totem media player. Sometimes Totem crashes when I switch to a new radio channel (stream). I normally use the Streamtuner application to keep track of radio channel names their URLs. Streamtuner also starts the Totem media player to play the stream when I select a channel. See picture picture_1: http://www.futuredesktop.org/images/gutsy/picture_8c.jpg and picture_2: http://www.edbl.no/tmp/hardy/alpha5/streamtuner.png The error is: Totem crashes when I switch from radio URL "NRK Alltid Nyheter" ( http://radio.hiof.no/nrk-alltid-nyheter-172.ogg ) to "Kanal 24" ( mms://live.alleredge.com/AE_Kanal24_High ). If I restart the "Kanal 24" couple of times, Totem will most likely crash and disappears from the desktop. It just quits without error message. Streamtuner is totally irrelevant here. So I created a tiny shell script that feeds two URLs to the Totem media player. It makes Totem crash repeatedly (every time). Here is the script: http://www.edbl.no/tmp/hardy/alpha5/radio1.sh Get it: $ wget http://www.edbl.no/tmp/hardy/alpha5/radio1.sh Run it $ sh radio1.sh Totem will most likely crash when the script sends it the URLs. The question is: Why does not Totem tolerate fast switching from one stream URL to another? This is a very tiny bug (if bug at all), but it still needs an explanation ;-) -------------------------------- Additional information: Here is my streamtuner settings (files) with some radio streams to test with. Do $ sudo apt-get install streamtuner streamripper $ cd $HOME $ wget http://www.edbl.no/tmp/hardy/alpha5/streamtuner.tar $ tar -xvf streamtuner.tar Start it $ streamtuner # Note: Streamtuner is old and hardly maintained anymore. -------------------------------- BTW: A collection of all world's radio channels.
