[Bug 425526] Re: Kubuntu Karmic i386 Alpha 5 network copy/stream from samba share glitch approximately every 5 minutes

[Ian Mackenzie]

1. To reproduce this problem:

Boot off a Kubuntu Karmic Alpha 5 CD or USB (Ubuntu Karmic Alpha 5 does not have this bug)
Attempt to play a media file off a shared drive on the local network
(open Dolphin, type "smb:\\10.1.1.2\docos" (no quotes) into address bar, navigate to directory using the mouse, click on media file to launch media player & play media)

2. Expected Behavior:

Media player (Kaffeine) launches,
Media plays until the end of the media
NB: Plugins may need to be installed to play media

3. Behavior actually encountered:

Media player (Kaffeine) launches,
NB: Plugins may need to be installed to play media
Media stops before end of media (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kaffeine/+bug/420960 for another description of this problem)
- High bitrate media (eg 720p .mkv video) seems to stop faster than low bitrate media
- If Samba is not the correct package to file this bug under, could you please suggest a more appropriate one?

Thanks,

Ian Mackenzie

PS: The behavior has been duplicated on another motherboard/CPU/Memory
combination, so it is probably not specific to my hardware.
