amarok playlist error

[Mario Young]

Binary package hint: amarok

hello developers:

Im having a problem with the amarok, everytime i add an album to the reproduction list that have more than 1 cd, the music player reproduced the 1st song from the 1st cd then jump over to the 1st song from the 2nd cd, then goes back to the 1st song of the 1st cd again, and so & so instead of reproduce the 2nd song of the 1st cd.

I think that amarok should recognize that the next song belongs to the same cd of the current song and of the same album.

Thanks for reporting this bug. Which version of (K)Ubuntu and Amarok are you running?
I tried to reproduce this issue with latest Gutsy packages and failed.

I'm runing feisty, kde 3.5.7, amaroK 1.4.5

Apparently we seem to run the same Amarok version. Are you sure everything is fine with disc number tags?

[Mario Young (mayeco)]

Try this:

1. take 4 mp3 files and put it in a folder
2. Tag the files with the album "DEMO"
3. Tag 2 files with disc number 1 and track number 1 and 2
4. Tag 2 other files with disc number 2 and track number 1 and 2
5. Add this 4 files to the playlist and play in "Random Album" mode

What my amarok does is play the frist track then jump to the 1 track with the tag cd numer 2 and GO BACK to the 1 track with the cd number 1 and loop forever.

Amarok random

See this files with the tags I use:

download and put it in your playlist in "Random Album" and "Repeat Playlist" mode and see what happend and just see amaroK.

Sorry I was not aware of the "random album" mode.

Thanks for reporting this bug, nice catch! :)

In order for this bug to now be fixed, it must be reported upstream to Amarok developers for Amarok 2.0 Please file this bug again at bugs.kde.org against Amarok and then provide a link to that bug here so we can track it in launchpad.

Thanks.

Actually it has been reported upstream. I was not familiar with KDE bug tracking.
I think reporting bugs upstream is more useful instead of adding a comment that this should be reported upstream... :).

The guys in bugs.kde.org think this bug is "trifles"
