Fedora :: Songbird Repeats Every Second Song Endless?
Jun 24, 2010
I got a problem with my Songbird (1.4.3) on a Fedora 12 64 bit. When I play music and the first song is over, the song changes but the little loudspeaker symbol in the list, that displays the currently playing song, doesn't move to this song. It just stays on the first played one and also the title of the first one is displayed above the progress bar. But that's not all, when the song should change again (from second to third song), it won't do so. The second played song starts again and will be repeated again and again and Meanwhile the mentioned symbol just stays in front of the first song. Only if I press the "next" button two times the third song will be played. So I got to press "next" two times after every two songs. That makes listening to music nearly impossible. The problem occurred after installing a lot of updates (I had no fast internet connection for months so I now had to install all at once), so it is difficult to say which package causes the issue. Before that Songbird worked all fine for months. I would be glad to provide further information, but neither running songbird in terminal, nor the songbird error console shows up any error related to this behaviour. I also tried to delete the .songbird2 folder in my userhome, but it made no difference at all. Normally i would get the latest verion of the software at first, but since songbird dropped linux support, there is no newer linux version than the one installed on my system.
I'm install songbird from here :[URL].. I install this version because the latest version is so purple.everything is OK except the fact that I cant play my whole song in the library nor playlist, only able to play back & forth current song and the next one. I'm already try the new version though.. the problem stay.
Just installed songbird 1.4.3 on mandriva. Everytime I manually change a song, the volume turns up. So I always have to turn down the volume, so that it wont be to loud. This does not happen when songbird automatically change song, after one is done playing.
I'm looking for some pointers on a method to "transfer" the song-playing from my laptop to my PC, both running ubuntu. The use case is: I'm home listening to some song on the laptop. Then I realize how crappy the speakers are. Here's what I do *now*:
1. Stop playback on the laptop 2. Get up, go to the PC, open the music player 3. Find the same song 4. Try to find the same point in the song 5. Stop playback on the laptop 6. Start playback on the PC (the PC has good speakers)
Of course now I'm dreaming of having a "button" I push that does all this all by itself. Can anyone give me some pointers?
You are about to install unsigned packages can compromise your system, as it is impossible to verify if the software came from a trusted source. Are you sure you want to continue installation?YES confirm with password same error, yes confirm with pass same error..
I got Songbird 1.2(stable) and extracted it in a dir "Songbird".

I clicked "ok" and "continue" in orther windows. The result is that it worked but so convinence. Any body tell me the way to fix it. I want to know how to install it correctly and bring it to my desktop....
As far as i know VLC is the best media player for linux bc it suppurts all file types. But there is one anoying problem - when i want to listen to song it opens VLC, but when i open another song it opens another new VLC window. And this problemug or whatever didnt apear in Windows version VLC player.
I performed an apt-get upgrade and now my SSH Welcome Banner looks like the following. You'll notice that the banner repeats itself. The bottom half is acutally "static" and doesn't change. The top part is what I would normally see. How do I remove the bottom portion of the banner? Or modify the banner? Using Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS
I have a new F12 install, and my syslog is filling up with messages about USB. I have 2 USB devices plugged in directly to the mobo (bluetooth keyboard receiver, touchscreen), and it keeps redetecting them and then disabling the port for some reason.
I love VLC Media player, it works great, exept for this one thing. the first minute repeats for all videos that are a minute long (guesstimate time) If I skip the part after that its fine but it is really annoying.
Fedora Core 11 and installed songbird via songbird wiki website.I want to play mp3 files with songbird (which is basically why i downloaded it cos i dont like amarok) but when i try to play a file, it gives this message:"MediaCore Error: An id3 tag demuxer plugin is required to play this stream, but not installed"i searched a lot on web but couldnt find a solution
I have 2 lists of names, they aren't sorted, and may contain repeats.What I would like to do with a bash script is compare the 2 documents and find and remove each repeat name, saving only one of them. Then concatenate the files. Or if it were easier, concatenate first and find and remove all internal repeats.
I just installed XMMS2 and everytime I tell it to play one of my mp3 files it only plays the sample song provided with the program. I haven't found any solution to this, just other people with the same problem.
for some reason after I standby, my sound doesn't work as it should. It skips and sometimes repeats and then catches up to where it's supposed to be. I think video does this too
First of all, this is not a rhythmbox issue, but a pulseaudio one. Everytime I click on next song (in rhythmbox or amarok), the master volume drops about 25 percent. Once the volume goes to 0, the volume cannot be modified without going into sound preferences and unmuting the volume for the application. This is *very* annoying. Basically, it means that everytime I click on next song, I need to follow that with 2 or 3 hits of up volume.
I try to connect to my server (whose IP is x.x.x.x below) from my laptop. I have no idea why openvpn client won't work this time. It works fine in win7 before. I re-installed openvpn but it doesn't work neither. Then I searched for this issue, find that it is possibly caused by disabled DHCP Client service. I checked, and found it was enabled. Still won't work after restarting dhcp client service.
Basic Info: OS: Windows 7 OpenVPN client: openvpn-2.2.0 DHCP Client Service started.
The following is the log during connecting:

I have recently been unable to boot into windows xp, which is on a drive separate from my linux installation. When I select the windows installation, the computer starts back at the bios screen and returns to grub endlessly. I am running an updated 9.10. The linux will boot fine; however the most recent kernel does not show up on the list of available options, which may indicate something. I have searched the forum and found nothing that helps. There are plenty of posts asking if you have stopped using windows altogether and other non tech related posts though.
i updated the compiz fusion plugins and decided to try some out, and when i tried the reflected windows, it logged me out and i had to log back in. but now as long as it's active, i can't login long enough for me to disable it, Edit: nvm, i managed to fix it. login under Failsafe GNOME session, and it'll be in safe mode, with all add-ons disabled, so you can manually turn them off
Cannot log out of Lucid Lynx. Cap and Scroll lock LED blink and nothing defeats them. I have to shutdown the computer by switching it off.
I removed xorg.conf (which I had installed for screen resolution). After removing it, the shutdown worked well. No more blinking and hangup during shutdown. But I lost the screen resolution.
I need the screen resolution. how to solve the blink issue. Does it have to do with something in the xorg.conf file causing this?
Can anyone at least clue me in as to what causes the "kernel panic"?
Prior to Karmic I had samba working well. Karmic upgrade broke samba with an endless password loop when trying to connect to a samba server. I have not been able to get it working since, including after upgrade to Lucid. I've now encountered a similar problem attempting to login into an SSH server. Laptop to desktop, (Karmic to Lucid),ssh ok, reverse no joy. (sshd running on both).
Sometimes I need remotely connect to my computer, but my router gains IP address dynamically. So I wrote simple script which gains my router IP and send me email:
Code: #!/bin/bash function send_mail { echo $1 | mutt -s "New IP" myemail.com } old_ip= while true; do new_ip=`wget www.whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp -O - -q` if [ -n "$new_ip" ] && [ "$new_ip" != "$old_ip" ]; then old_ip=$new_ip send_mail "IP changed, sending new IP: $new_ip" fi sleep 5m done
I need it to run at system startup. When I'm adding it to .bash_profile bash path/resolveIP & I'm not getting any mail. In case of bash path/resolveIP (without &) I'm getting mail, but I guess it will never get to the next command in .bash_profile. So I put my script in /etc/init.d directory, but I don't know is it okay to have endless script there????
I am trying to install a program called PQLII (seismology related). I'm running Red Hat Linux Fedora 9. When I installed the OS, I selected "Everything". When I run: rpm -ivh PQL-2009-246.i386.rpm It returns: error: Failed dependencies: libXFixes.so.3 is needed by PQL-2009-246 libXinerama.so.1 is needed by PQL-2009-246 rtld(GNU_HASH) is needed by PQL-2009-246
OK, so I google the 3 files listed and download them which I found on [URL]. None of the filenames listed matched precisely those listed, but I downloaded files that were as near a match as possible, i.e: libXfixes-4.0.3-3.fc9.i386.rpm libXinerama-1.0.3-1.fc9.i386.rpm glibc-2.8-3.i386.rpm
Being the logical type, I first try to install libXfixes-4.0.3-3.fc9.i386.rpm since it's listed first, but it generates: error: Failed dependencies: rtld(GNU_HASH) is needed by libXfixes-4.0.3-3.fc9 Ok, so then I run: rpm -ivh glibc-2.8-3.i386.rpm which generates: error: Failed dependencies: glibc-common = 2.8-3 is needed by glibc-2.8-3
I persevere, search for and download glibc-common-2.8-3.i386.rpm. rpm -ivh glibc-common-2.8-3.i386.rpm generates: error: Failed dependencies: glibc = 2.8-3 is needed by glibc-common-2.8-3 tzdata >= 2003a is needed by glibc-common-2.8-3 Am I downloading the wrong files?
I have burned the centos 5.4 i386 netinstall CD. It boots fine, but when I specify what mirror I want to use to install from, it gets caught in an endless loop. i have tried multiple mirrors and even tried both HTTP and FTP. When I CTRL+F3 this is what I see: "INFO: transferring [URL] to a fd" ERROR: cannot determine address family of dist1.800hosting.com" And then it just repeats over and over. I have looked at several mirros and I don't see that updates.img present at any of them.
When I boot into recovery mode I get fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16 /dev/sda1: clean, 148044/217728 files, 630631/869510 blocks.And then it stops. Booting into normal mode results in an endless hang. I'm not sure what the error means, or how to fix it.I'm running Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a Dell Mini 9.
I'm trying to install 10.04.2 on a Dell machine with no current OS. I finally found the thread that said to use the alternate installer if you have a RAID: so i'm using ubuntu-10.04.2-alternate-i386.iso, burned using Roxio on my (different) windows box.
I go through the early installer steps ok, get to partitioning, choose guided resize (potential tangent: first time this modified partitions #6 and #7, second time it was just "use entire disk"). Then "installing base system", then a dialog that says: Please insert the disk labeled "Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS _Lucid Lynx_ - release i386 (20110211.d) in '/cdrom/' and press enterWell, the disk is already in the drive, and the installer has previously claimed it's reading from /cdrom. Reinserting it doesn't change anything. My only choices are <Continue> or <Go Back>, both of which display the same message. So i can't get past this, or escape, or do anything other than power down.
Looking at the disk on my Win machine, it appears to be labeled "Ubuntu 10.04.2 L" (can't tell if that's truncated or not).
Does the installer really demand a certain label on the disc to succeed?? how to successfully install in this situation?
Update: just to be sure, i checked the md5sum, and it's correct.
recently my HP Pavilion's Western Digital (WD2500JS) HDD has begun failing (bluescreens, slow, etc...). I was able to attach it to another computer using a IDE to USB adapter and save my personal files (pics, music, etc...), so the drive has not yet completely died. So I bought a SATA Seagate Barracuda 500GB HDD and wanted to use my restore discs that HP made me purchase off of them to reinstall my Windows Vista Home Premium Edition, which OF COURSE didn't work. So after researching a bit I found the best idea would be to make and Image copy of the original HDD and put it on the new one. So I tried using Clonezilla which ran in an endless loop giving error after error for hours while trying to image the disk. Fortunately my work has a ImageMASSter 4004i which is a piece of hardware that does a direct, drive to drive image from the Master drive to the destination drive.
But unfortunately this didn't work either. It was telling me that their was an error within the destination drive, something like "0x84 URMWT Sequencer failed to complete". Does the drive need to be completely empty?Should I reformat it before I try this (if so which FS?)? I plugged it into my laptop with USB to SATA adapter and was unable to mount it (this was after I had it in the Imaging Hardware Device, not sure if that could have screwed something up). The strange thing is that the last couple of days the new drive did work, I was using it for temporary storage of some files.
I really like listening to music, and Rhythmbox is okay, but I've been looking up various other Music players for Ubuntu, and many users have a lot to say about Songbird. However, can't figure out how to install it, or if it's even possible now?
