GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 631809
Nautilus should use the media-player name from media-player-info if available

When you plug in a USB mass storage device with an unnamed partition, nautilus shows the device as something like "8GB filesystem". It would be better, if the device is described in media-player-info file referenced by an udev rule, to show the correct device name.
Would that need to be fixed in gvfs/gdu?
-> gvfs Yes, nautilus gets this name directly from gvfs.
Gdu volume monitor has been superseded by udisks2 volume monitor long time ago. I am closing this bug because many have been changed since this was reported. If this is still an issue with the recent gvfs releases, please reopen and change component to udisks2 volume monitor.
