Sound menu shows last song instead of the current played music of Banshee

[typo]

Binary package hint: banshee

Just look at the attached screenshot. The sound menu shows the wrong music. If I change the music, I'll get the cover of the last one.

When I click on the "next song" button in the sound menu it's get synchronized again. I don't know how to reproduce this bug yet.

[Gabriel Speckhahn (gabspeck)]

I can confirm this. Up-to-date Natty on amd64.

[Chow Loong Jin (hyperair)]

I reckon there may be some race condition happening, or perhaps a signal being missed out.

[Chow Loong Jin (hyperair)]

Duplicate bug.

Right now it happend again, how nasty! Chow Loong Jin, where's the duplicate, do you mean upstream?

Yeah, the upstream bug was a duplicate filed by me. I just amended the upstream
URL to point at the master bug.

Yeah guys, I have noticed on certain occasions over this cycle. I have put a timeout to help the race condition. It seems as if when I receive the property-changed signal and then I try to fetch the metadata it seems as if the metadata property is the old metadata and not the new stuff.

I'm also seeing this on Natty.

Also see bug 771249 (I marked that bug as a duplicate of this one). This issue seems to be related to gapless playback. If you disable the gapless playback option in Banshee the bug ceases to occur.

[Michael Martin-Smucker (mmartinsmucker)]

I don't necessarily agree that bug 771249 is a duplicate of this. 771249 was a FFE request with a much broader scope; it was influenced by this bug, but also by several other (more severe, imo) bugs related to track changes with gapless. But anyway, that makes little difference at this point since the request was too late for Natty. Hopefully this will all become irrelevant in the next cycle anyway, as the current plan is to completely re-work Banshee's gapless implementation. See upstream for more details: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=638943

Can confirm I'm also experiencing this bug. Ubuntu 11.04.

[Conor Curran (cjcurran)]

Has this been fixed guys ?

[Chow Loong Jin (hyperair)]

Fixed in 2.1.3.
