Rhythmbox music player skips about every minute. On every song whether low or high bit rate. I'm using Ubuntu 8.10. But I do not know what version of Rhythmbox I'm using. Sorry i can't find that out, I am new to Linux and to Ubuntu.

do you get the same while playing the file with gst-launch playbin uri=file:///path/to/file ?

Sorry, but I'm new to Ubuntu. And I'm not sure what you mean or what to do.

you need to open a command line and type that command there

What command? I don't see one in your email.

the gst-launch command in the first comment

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

could you also see if using the crossfading option does a difference?

I also am finding the same problem with Rhythmbox Music Player. I have noticed it chiefly when playing CDs. There is also the same problem with the Totem Movie Player, but not quite as bad as Rhythmbox.

One note. My DVD/CD player is an internal old style IDEE device. The rest of my computer runs on the new style bus.

I had the same problem with Rhythmbox skipping. I was using an IDE DVD drive. I had problems only playing CDs, not playing mp3. When I hooked up an external SATA DVD drive through a USB port, I had no problems with Rhythmbox at all.
