amarok-visualisation-1.2.4-6.fc4
amarok-arts-1.2.4-6.fc4

Have testet with xine and gstreamer engine, but it crashes with them both.
Removed all config from .kde that belongs to amarok.
I`m not able compile ver 1.3B2 cause to the blacklisting of gcc4.

Can anyone help me?

Becoming a bad habit to answer my own posting
Traced the crash i gdb and found it had problem with libtag. Removed a duplicate of libtag libaries

Reinstalled:
libtag
libtag-devel
tagid3
tagid3-devel

Recompiled 1.3 beta2 and are now enjoying a great program Currently testing out the new mysql support.

Hi.

Thanks a lot for this thread.
I was having problems with some mp3 on differents versions of amarok and it allways finish by an amarok crash. I\'m using gentoo and for those who have enabled the \"debug\" flag (USE=debug emerge amarok) and have seen the error :

amarok: amaroK is crashing...
Very strange! got a DCOPReplyWait opcode, but we were not waiting for a reply!
Very strange! got a DCOPReplyDelayed opcode, but we were not waiting for a reply!

Try an \"emerge taglib\". And try to play a mp3 file with amarok It works fine for me now

tried to re-emerge taglib and this solved the problem. Thanks a lot for the hint!

Installing taglib fixed the same kind of problem for me, although I\'m using Mandriva 2006 and Amarok 1.3.8.

Thanks for the tip!
