Ubuntu8.04: Shoutcast/Magnatune - play stops
Hi All,
I run Ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell Celeron powered Desktop PC.
I recently installed Songbird 1 via getdeb & added the following add-ons:
Shoutcast
Magnatune
Song Notifier
Mediaflow
Album View
YABS Black Skin
Pause/Play/Stop buttons
When selecting a Shoutcast station it plays for 4secs before stopping & freezing the player - the same happens with Magnatune after 15secs. Music from the library plays fine.
I have no problem with Shoutcast or Magnatune when using other players i.e. Rhythmbox or Amarok.
Anyone got any ideas?
The ideas behind Songbird are great and it looks VERY promising.
Many thanks.

Inappropriate?Hey siabost,
Sorry about the late reply!
If its ok with you, could you try the tar.gz from the Songbird website. The .deb's aren't maintained by the Songbird team. All you have to do is download and 'extract' it to your home directory or somewhere similar..
I would also run the 'Songbird profile manager' (open the terminal, navigate to the Songbird folder: 'cd Songbird' , and run 'songbird -p'.) and delete your current profile first.
