After upgrading from xmms 1.2.8r4 to 1.2.10r6, certain entries in my playlist will lock up xmms when their id3 info is read (on load/demand/play). The xmms process spikes to 100%. The app can be closed, but the process remains and must be killed from the command line. Downgrading to 1.2.8r6 is my current workaround. I can supply a test file via e-mail if necessary that will lock it up every time. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install xmms 1.2.8r4 2. Baseline (load playlist) 3. Install xmms 1.2.10r6 4: Regress (load playlist) -->fails Actual Results: The playlist locks up as soon as one of the 'bad' files' id3 info is read. Expected Results: Id3 info is read, song is playable Ping me if you need a test file. The only other thing that I noticed is that when xmms 1.2.8 is started from the prompt, I see these events when loading the playlist id3 tags. These are possibly the events that are causing 1.2.10 to lock up? ** WARNING **: convert_string(): Conversion not supported.

How does 1.2.10-r5 fare? Can you pleasse provide me with a mp3 that displays this?
Will e-mail an mp3 file that causes the problem (I hope I don't exceed your email size limit). Will try out 1.2.10r5 tonight and post my results. Frank
Ok, I have e-mailed the link to the song on my comcast web space. The error does not occur with 1.2.10r5. Only with 1.2.10r6. Ping me if any further information is needed and I will be happy to provide it. Thank you for your time, Frank Russo
Ok, I reported the fix upstream http://bugs.xmms.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1711 This is fixed in -r7. Thanks for the help.
Confirmed. 1.2.10r7 is working as it should. Thank you for your assistance. Frank Russo
