Player still working just stops playing media after 30 minutes but still functions every were else.
Whenever i leave it on for about over 30 minutes w/o constantly manually changing tracks but just letting it play through an album or idle it stops playing my media. For example, i double click a track and nothing happens, i can still nav through the client but either nothing happens at all (song not even appearing on the bar) or it does show up on the bar but sticks at 0:00 and never plays until i restart it. Ive even had it were its half way through the album and then i decide to change songs and it refuses to open/play the new one. Really frustrating and counter productive
Im really dissapointed, i REALLY love this player, i like to say its the offspring of iTunes and Mozilla. I dont know if i can keep using it with this bug though, it is so frustrating to have to restart it everytime.
Please fix this guys, this is a crucial moment for the players success and it will go down the drain with these bugs. Get it in top shape and i definitely think we have the Firefox of the browser market, but as of now, it looks more like the google browser of the market.

Inappropriate?I've seen similar reports here in GetSatisfaction but never could reproduce....
Does it happen on some particular file or in random?
Does file it stops on plays fine when double clicked?
What Songbird version do you use and what platform are you running on? -
Inappropriate?Its really every file. No particular file does it, all it takes is allowing the player to remain idle for a few minutes. Also, it will keep going through the play list, its me either skipping forward or backwards on the list via the seek button or double clicking a file.
Its the latest build running on XP is the one one im having issues with (desktop). This computer (my laptop) is Vista 64 and it runs fine.
I noticed one more thing which makes me begin to believe its something else hanging (not the player) causing it to not play. I have noticed that everytime it refuses to play the song (rather than not loading it all together) and is stuck on 0:00 that when i close it, right after the program's UI closes it plays the first 1 or 2 seconds of the track then fully shuts down and is removed from my process list.
Hope this helps. I really want to see Songbird work out. I would love to send a crash report of some kind but didnt think of it at the time and will be away from my PC for another month.
When you try and reproduce it, does the build have the most popular add-on's installed? It may be that which is causing the hang.
