User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; Linux) KHTML/3.5.5 (like Gecko) (Debian) Build Identifier: I changed the system time via the date command from the console and noticed that the currently playing mp3 was stopped. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start xfmedia and let it play an mp3 track. 2. Open a terminal window and change the system time (as root) by a few minutes. I was setting the clock back by 4 minutes because my hardware clock is a little fast. Actual Results: The currently playing mp3 is stopped. Expected Results: Changing the system time should not influence playback. My System: Dell Latitude CPx Debian Etch xfce 4.3.99.1 xfmedia 0.9.1 (unknown rev)
I'm pretty sure that's a xine-lib problem, so I don't think I can help here. Likely it is using gettimeofday() as a timing source on your system, and is getting confused when the time changes like that.

I am setting this bug to invalid. Thanks for looking into it!
If it's still bothering you, feel free to report the bug over at xine's tracker, http://sf.net/projects/xine/. Not sure what their reaction will be, but might be worth a try.
