[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#607518: kaffeine: DVB-T Channel switching results in Read Error from

[Malte Stein]

Package: kaffeine
Version: 1.0-2
Severity: important

Hi,

this bug appeared a few months ago through an update and hasn't been fixed ever
since. It causes the video to freeze, but doesn't freeze kaffeine itself.

To reproduce, do the following steps:
1. Switch to a random channel
2. When it's on, change to a channel on the same frequency
3. Receive nothing, except a "Read error from:" after 30 seconds

To recover, either close kaffeine and reopen it, or do the following:
1. Switch to a random channel
2. Switch to a different channel on a different(!) frequency
3. When you hear the speakers click, switch to your desired channel.

On a side note: When closing kaffeine before the 30 sec timeout kicks in, KDE
is briefly busy deleting the file ":"

I guess this behavior came with the drop of all the video options in kaffeine
and some default-option that I changed prior is now different.
This bug stayed even after resetting the entire kde-config.

I use a Terratec Cinergy T2 USB. The setup hasn't changed before and after the
bug appeared.
