Amarok issues........SOLVED

Howdy fellow archers.........

I have issues with Amarok 2.1.1 in Kde 4.3.1

My music plays ok, but for some strange reason, everytime I skip to the next track, it takes aaaggeeeessss for it to start playing....
not only that.... but I can't fast foreward/rewind my music during playback....(im talking about skipping foreward/back during playback using the slider bar)

Anybody else have this issue?
any suggestions?


thanx
ps i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it.... but i havn't tried a different version yet as I havn't come across one other than a kde3.5xx version.....

You can just install phonon-xine and change the phonon backend to that..... amarok will again...

I think I'll contact the phonon guys again. I don't see any progress here; Qt uses gstreamer while KDE recommends xine if gstreamer does not work. At the end of the day both backends have problems.
