Wonky Songbird: Extreme Fast-Forward through tracks
I've been having an issue with the latest release of Songbird. About once every couple of days or so, I'll be listening to music, just jammin', everything's working great, and then a song ends and the next one doesn't come on. So I check it out, and find that my songs are being played... Ridiculously fast. We're talking about a song every two seconds or so. There's no audio or anything. It will pause, skip songs, and everything, but when I unpause, it resumes its ultra-fast playback. I've got to quit and reopen for it to start working again. Which isn't a huge issue, but... Y'know. Just FYI.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Inappropriate?The behaviour you describe does not sound like the files are playing fast, but Songbird is attempting to play the file and can't (for whatever reason), so it attempts to play the next one.
Can you check the error console to see if there are any problems in there? The error console can be accessed through the Tools menu. More specifically, it would be helpful to see what errors appear whenever a song cannot be played.
In addition to this, please provide us details of your environment (OS, how many songs, where your library is located, etc). -
Inappropriate?The only problem in the Error console that I can't really put my finger on is several hundred instances of Warning: reference to undefined property of bConfig[N]; the source file is js-kit.com/ratings.js
The reason that I figured it was fast-forwarding is that it actually shows the duration of the song (albeit very briefly) and shows the little dot moving as the song would progress... very, very quickly.
Sorry I didn't provide enough info: I'm on vista, the library is on my hard drive, and I've got about 2,100 songs.
Anything else you need?
Thanks so much for your help!
I’m regular.
