Doesn't happen for me. Maybe your files are corrupted?

The files are not corrupt. I've tried lots of different files and file formats. I can also play them with gst-launch-0.10 on the shell, with Rhythmbox (which uses GStreamer 1.0) and Clementine (using gstreamer0.10). They also play back fine on Ubuntu with Banshee 2.6.1.

I've even cleaned my Banshee database and settings:

> rm -rf ~/.config/banshee-1
> rm -rf ~/.config/gconf/

But I am still getting instant segfaults. How can I help track down this problem even further?

I also get a segfault when attempting to play a music file with the exact same backtrace.

This is a crash in the OpenGL ES libraries. You could try deleting /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgsteglglessink.so

This is a new sink introduced by gstreamer-sdk which didn't exist in the last 0.10 GStreamer release. I'll probably disable the sink if removing it fixes your crashes.

Hi, you are right, after removing libgsteglglessink.so Banshee does not segfault any more (BTW: GL-ES for music playback?!?).

Can somebody please reassign this bug to a gstreamer packager?

After updating, banshee no longer crashes. I didn't get any updates for banshee or gstreamer, but I did get updates to mesa, mesa-libgl, and ati-dri. If the issue is with the gles sink, it's likely one of those that fixed the problem. If it also works for Dan with those updates and with libgsteglglessink.so restored, this bug might be resolved.
Comment by Dan (direx) - Saturday, 08 February 2014, 21:25 GMT
I can confirm this, with the latest mesa and ati-dri libgsteglglessink.so no longer causes any issues (just reinstalled gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins). So this bug can be closed.
