           Summary: when playing unknown file type, noatun consumes
                    unbounded cpu and memory
           Product: noatun
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: charles kde org
        ReportedBy: mathpup mylinuxisp com


Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          GCC 3.3.5 64-bit X86_64
OS:                Linux

When Noatun is invoked with a file that it does not know how to play, it gets very \
confused. The artsd and noatun processes begin using almost all CPU time, and the \
noatun process grows larger and larger.

To reproduce, launch noatun with a filename that noatun cannot play, such as an empty \
file. On the console, I get the following message repeated over and over again.

artskde: KDE::PlayObject: destroyed
artskde: KDE::PlayObject: destroyed
noatun: [bool Engine::open(const PlaylistItem&)] No playobject for \
'file:///home/velma/x'

I have Noatun get up to dock into the system track, and quitting Noatun from the \
context menu of its system-tray icon does not actually stop Noatun. Instead, it keeps \
running and consuming more and more memory.

The case of trying to play an empty file is kind of silly, and sometimes people will \
accidentally try to play a file in Noatun. In my case, I appear not to have FLAC \
support for Noatun, but the .flac extension was associated with Noatun.
