148828 - mozilla "hangs" until the application opened is closed

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 58339

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Manuel]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0rc3) Gecko/20020523
BuildID:    2002052309

When I connect to that page, I open a audio stream with aviplay.
In that moment, every new mozilla window opened will not display, 
just the title bar, as if it had problems redrawing it. Then the
application that plays the audio stream is closed, everything 
goes back normally.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Connect to http://www.ondacero.com
2.Click on the 'KISS FM' image (below the 'dance fm' image) 
3.It opens a small window. Click on the 'Kiss FM' image
4.It opens a 'download' or 'open' popup
5.I choose open with aviplay
6.The audio stream starts to play
7.Close the mozilla www.ondacero.com window (not relevant)
8.Open a new window
9.Connect to another website
10.Minimize the mozilla window
11.Maximize the mozilla. 
12.Repeat steps 8-11 several times. After some tries, the mozilla
icon will stop on one of the 'transitions', and it will show 
only the title bar when the window is maximized.
12.Close the aviplay
13.Things start working correctly.


Actual Results:  Mozilla "hanged". I.e. it's running, right there, with several
mozilla-bin processes, and if I maximize it, the title bar of the
mozilla windows shows on the top, but not the rest of the window. 
When I close the 'aviplay' application, it keeps working again.

Expected Results:  Show the window correctly.

I am using KDE3.0. I've not tried any other browser because I
use just mozilla, but I understand that maybe it's more a KDE
issue than a mozilla issue.

I can't figure out how to get Aviplay. How do you get it? I have Redhat 7.2. Its
not listed under available packages and I can't find it on the web. I heard it
has been discontinued.

Could you please find a more recent program to reproduce this in or tell us how
to get the program?

It looks like you might be seeing bug 58339 (playing audio + flash => hang). 
The www.ondacero.com has a flash ad at the top, so if you try to use audio
(through aviplay) and load that page at the same time you can get a hang.

You can test this by removing the flash plugin and tryin the steps again.

Manuel: I don't mind that you emailed me, but the proper place next time is as
an additional comment when you resolve the bug.
