[Bug 238185] [NEW] amarok crashes on loading real audio files

[w.hamra1987]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: amarok

i have many files in the real audio format (.rm), i  used to play these
files fine in VLC. back then i was new to linux and didn't know much
about plugins and codecs and such stuff to get amarok to play them. so
now, i decided to give amarok a try. i added the medibuntu repos, and
installed w32codecs, and the amarok found in that repo too. the problem
happens when i load my m3u playist, amarok crashes and it automatically
opens thunderbird to send a crash report. if i go to the open media
button in amarok, and select the files i want, i get a "multiple
background-tasks running" note in the bottom status bar, and it hangs
there for ever, and these tasks are all "populating playist
(preparing)".

im using kubuntu hardy 32-bit
Intel D102GGC2 mother board (ATI chipset)
1.5 Gb RAM
3.0 GHz CPU with HT
nVidia GeForce 7300LE (256 Mb)
built-in ATI HD audio controller
