bpm detection goes on endlessly if the music folder contains a non-audio file

[PeterPall]

If the music folder contains any text file containing lyrics, html file or any other file gstreamer doesn't know how to decode the bpm detection will stop at this file leaving the throbber running and leaving half of the music library without bpm information. The only hint the user gets about that problem is the console message that gstreamer has not been able to decode a file - and the fact that the throbber in the lower left edge of the screen is turning endlessly always indicating that the bpm detection is in progress.

Did rename the following file:
/home/gunter/MP3/Music/WamdueProject/kingofmycastle_musicload/Wamdue Project_King Of My Castle_04_King Of My Castle (Bini & Martini 999 Dub)_ML2567187.mp3

to anything without spaces, '&' signs and brackets along with all other files in the directory it was in. The bpm detection now did output the following lines:

[33 Debug 10:23:50.169] Finished - Downloading Cover Art
[15 Debug 10:23:50.259] Preempting - Detecting BPM

Let's see where it halts next.

Restarted banshee after the bpm detection hat halted again. The message it output this time was:

any progress with this bug?

i cannot use the bpm dedection, cause i have thousands of cover arts and so on in my library and don't want to rename them all

[rubo77 (rubo77)]

and i read, that the search ithin your library is also slow, when BPM-Detection gets stuck:

Could you post the full output of "banshee --debug" while reproducing this bug, please?

[rubo77 (rubo77)]

 GStreamer running beat detection on /home/ruben/Musik/!...Sammlung/70er/!..Krautrock/King Crimson/kingcrimsonframebyframe.wav

*Full* output please?

[rubo77 (rubo77)]

that was the output.

after i removed the corrupt wav file it continued the BPM-detection.

i attached the corrupt file here see "this is the file, where it hangs " of my last comment.

i think that wav file has some speciality, so banshee hangs.

Well, really, I wanted the stuff that came before that in the log as well. I'll
forward this upstream anyway, since the wav probably makes things debuggable
upstream.
