I have come across two bugs (which will be added to launchpad if it's not resolved here)

  1. When I open any of the websites in Banshee Amazon or Miro Guide as soon as the site is finished loading it crashes Banshee.
  2. If I play any video local or remote it will show 1 frame maybe 0.5 sec of video then I get a black screen and audio continues in the backgound.

    • Specs & Details

I have a Fujitsu Amilo 1718 laptop with 2 gig of ram (original 1 gig) graphics is provided by ATI Radeon Xpress 200M (don't laugh it works with compiz....just)

I have a link to the output of banshee --debug Here

Don't have time to read? Here are the Highlights

[2 Warn  11:52:34.814] Caught an exception - System.ArgumentNullException: Argument cannot be null.

then abit later

Debug info from gdb:

Could not attach to process.  If your uid matches the uid of the target
process, check the setting of /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope, or try
again as the root user.  For more details, see /etc/sysctl.d/10-ptrace.conf
ptrace: Operation not permitted.

=================================================================
Got a SIGSEGV while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries 
used by your application.
=================================================================

Aborted

Not music to my ears as you can expect. The version I am using is 1.9.4 from the daily ppa but these bugs happen in any version of banshee from 1.8.1 and up. So if any one has come across a fix for this problem please share!!

additional info

Both VLC and Miro work on my system so there isn't a system wide problem with video and I haven't mentioned mono so no trolling it will get voted down.
