bug is present in latest daily build (from https://launchpad.net/~banshee-team/+archive/banshee-daily)

[scytlae (scytale-gmail)]

looks like the file is corrupt:

$ mplayer 01-Slow\ Moves.mp3
MPlayer 1.0rc4-4.5.2 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team
Playing 01-Slow Moves.mp3.

scytlae, would you mind to attach that mp3 file into your report for try to reproduce this issue?

Closing this bug, as it does not seem a problem with Banshee.

hm....

fwiw neither rhythmbox nor quodlibet (both libgstreamer based) crash when attempting to play this file. the nightly build of banshee does crash.
in addition i can pass the file directly to gstreamer and it plays a load of digital noise but does not crash:
    gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=Music/01-Slow\ Moves.mp3 ! mad ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! alsasink

so it seems gstreamer is not the problem.
fwiw
