hi, i have kde 4.6.0, amarok 2.4 and phonon/phonon backend gstreamer 4.4.4
when i launch amarok, i have this error:

KGlobal::locale::Warning your global KLocale is being recreated with a valid main component instead of a fake component, this usually means you tried to call i18n related functions before your main component was created. You should not do that since it most likely will not work

(amarok:5012): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_debug_add_log_function: assertion `func != NULL' failed

and amarok doesn't start

Please try starting Amarok in Konsole, using the --debug argument.

Code: Select all

amarok --debug --nofork

found 2 bug reports - in Redhat it appears to be caused by the wrong version of the mysql packages

if you change phonon backend to wine or vlc will it work?

first link is reported by me

so, if i change phonon backend, all works fine!

biasquez, I've been talking with the developer of Phonon and phonon-gst. He says that this is triggered by a bug in Gstreamer itself, and should be reported as a bug against Gstreamer. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cg ... =GStreamer is where their bugzilla lives.

It will help us all out if you take the time to report the bug, and work with the gst developers to fix it.

Thanks!
