banshee crashes.... a lot :(

[liquidmonkey]

am running 11.10 and have do updates every week but BANSHEE media player still crashes a lot on me.

anyone else experience this?
i use it to listen to internet radio as there is lots to choose from.

are there alternatives that don't crash but still offer the same selection (mayeb better selection)?


thanks!

For internet radio you can't beat Radiotray - small footprint and easy to configure. It can be installed from Software Centre.

Hope this helps!

There is Clementine, which is also in the Ubuntu repositories.

i use banshee all the time and the only way i can get it to crash is to run update manager while i have a track playing in banshee.

for whatever reason, this causes the banshee controls to freeze and for it to use 100% of one of my cpu cores...all the while playing the track ok.

only solution i have found: don´t run update manager & banshee at same time.

i can live with that.
