I still don't see anything to explain why Amarok 2.2.2 reports zero tracks on any CD I try to play. If Exaile,Banshee, Rhythmbox, VLC and Amarok 1.4.10 all work perfectly, what's the deal with 2.2.2?

Same exact problem as the OP.

OpenSUSE 11.2 x86_64
KDE 4.3.4/Qt 4.6.1
Amarok 2.2.2

All Audio CDs show zero tracks.

I'm ripping a CD right now. Amarok correctly reported all the tracks. What is missing from the above two reports is debug information. What does Amarok report when you put the CD in? It's quite difficult to tell what's happening without specific information. Run Amarok from the console:

Code: Select all

Amarok -d --nofork

and report a bug, pasting in the output. Don't attach, as attachments aren't searchable.

i'd rather post here first so i can get an idea of whether or not this is a known problem that is fixed in the next version or whether i do need to file a bug.

here is the output. audio cd was already inserted before amarok was started & it read as zero tracks. clicked on it & nothing happened. so i ejected it & then closed the tray (with the disc in) but amarok apparently did not detect it as it did not show in the local sources pane.

This is a known bug as well: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207806

It sometimes work, sometimes not, but I can't tell why this is an on-off problem like this.

This is the my trace.

So will this be fixed in 2.2.3 and when will that be available?

Since this can be related to the KIO slave, it might depend on a newer KDE. I can't reproduce it with KDE 4.4 RC 2

I'm still waiting for somebody to explain why Amarok doesn't play CD's? Is it a KDE problem or not?

I am using KDE 4.4 RC2 and Kubuntu 9.10, so why is not working?

I dunno, because I'm using KDE 4.3.5, Ubuntu with KDE 9.10, and Amarok 2.2.2. Playing CDs works fine, as does ripping CDs directly in Amarok.

What happens when you run Amarok in the console:

Code: Select all

amarok -d --nofork

When you put in a CD and try to play it?

I don't know, it should work, it has always worked here since Amarok 2.2.0 I suspect a problem in your settings. Please create a new user and try again.

I have now upgraded to KDE 4.4 SC and still get nothing.

Same problem still with:
OpenSUSE 11.2 x86_64/Kernel 2.6.33-rc7-17-desktop
KDE 4.4.0 "release 223"
Amarok 2.2.90-57.1

output: http://pastebin.com/f4a2761c0

Although I don't know if this output is the same as the previous output I posted or not.

It would be nice if you could do only one thing before pasting the ouput, since it seems to do a lot of other things besides mounting a CD:

1. Start Amarok from the konsole with "amarok -d > log.txt 2>&1"
2. Put a CD in the CD tray and wait til it shows up in the Local Music section
3. Double click on the CD header to add it to the playlist
4. Try to play a track or two, then stop Amarok
5. Paste the log.txt in http://pastebin.ca
