Upgraded to 2.3.0 from 2.2.2.90 today. Amarok still crashes after the first track of a music CD finishes.

Snowhog, do you think this is the same as bug
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=222845 or 226071? Please run Amarok in the console,
and compare your backtrace to to 222845 & 226071. Add your feedback to one of those bug reports if it seems similar. Thanks for your report. Valorie |

Until the updates that I installed tonight:
Amarok again, crashes playing music CDs. I've had enough. Amarok 1.4 worked, and worked well. This 2.* 'upgrade' is not an improvement. I've removed all traces of Amarok from my system and will stick with VLC - it works.

have to agree with OP. until amarok2 gets to the awesome level of amarok1.4, vlc is a good choice.

I agree with the OP. Amarok has taken some giant steps backwards.
I enjoy listening to streaming music from various web sites (sky.fm, in particular). Amarok does not play. It seems to count time, but regardless of what I've tried in terms of codecs, plugins, etc. there is no joy. I pulled the most recent Amarok (2.3.0) from the Kubuntu repos a day or so ago. tried to listen, still no love. Did an immediate "remove". I use mplayer with the smplayer front-end. Works well, as do some other players; just not Amarok.
I feel more like I do now than I did when I got here.

Always thought this is the usability forum, better call it rant forum. Anyway, all the posters here should consider, that there are strangly enough amany working Amarok 2.3.x installation out there. So perhaps they/their distro (especially Sh++tbuntu) have problems with their setup/packages or they try cooking with amarok. I'm using SVN/GIT since amarok 2.0 and there was a lot of frustration in the beginning, but A2 evolved and it does now what 1.x did before for me and a lot more.
So plz stop whining, check your setups and report it. There will be helping hands, but not for the narrow minded. m0nk who is neither a fan nor in aany way involved in the development of Amarok

Might as well post them to the north pole as report bugs/issues with Amarok. |

Nice try. There are also, strangely enough, many Amarok installations that are NOT working. That is a problem, when an application is inconsistent, then it is wrong/buggy/bad/in need of improvement. You are just another Linux snob, and I've run into way too many of you. Listen to the problem, contribute to the solution or just keep quiet, because your "helping hands" also have missed the mark. And yes, this has turned into a rant forum because a lot of people are frustrated with inconsistent, buggy software that needs fixing.
