Re: Amarok 2 error after upgrade to Jaunty 9.04

I had the same problem ("Too many errors encountered in playlist. Playback has stopped.", nothing plays) with Amarok 2.0.2 using Ubuntu 9.10. It was corrected when I installed this (using synaptic package manager):

libxine1-ffmpeg

Before doing this I also installed "phonon-backend-xine", may be it is also needed (not sure).
If does not work, try to remove "phonon-backend-gstreamer" (will also uninstall amarok) and reinstall "photon-backend-xine" and "amarok". Then reboot. This worked for me.

Hope it helps.

That's what fixed it for me. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
