GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 538966
Track order not preserved when banshee spawns brasero
Last modified: 2010-01-06 00:10:39 UTC
I created a playlist when I wanted to make an audio CD. In banshee I ordered the tracks in the order that I wanted and then selected them all and right click->burn to CD. The tracks show up in brasero in a seemingly random order instead of the order they were in when they were in banshee. The order should be preserved. (Unsure if this is a banshee problem or brasero problem.) Other information:
I can confirm this. This is a problem with Brasero 0.8.1 and Banshee 1.2.1. This might have something to do with bug #547874
For me, it is in reverse order, no matter whether it is a single cd or a playlist.
* I have brasero 0.7.1 and banshee 1.4.1
There is a broader bug in Banshee (bug #558960) that addresses the issue of playlists not remembering their sort criteria. Maybe this bug and that one are in some way related...?
In Fedora 10, with Banshee Trunk and Brasero 0.8.4 I cannot reproduce the bug. Either from the Music Library or a playlist, I sort the songs, by clicking the columns or by sorting by hand, and Brasero respects the order. If anyone can confirm this, I suppose this bug should be closed.
This bug existed for me with 1.4.1, but no more in 1.4.3. Brasero used to create a track list in reverse order of my Banshee 1.4.1 playlist or music library (bottom track on top). Currently, highlighting the songs I want on the CD, Brasero lists the tracks in the same order as they are listed in the Playlist or Music Library (top to bottom). This is with: Ubuntu 8.10, Banshee 1.4.3, and Brasero 0.8.4 I vote confirm closed. This bug is however not related to bug #558960
If you're burning MP3s to a CD, the track ordering is going to come out nonsense anyway, unless the files are renamed first. I wrote a little script to help do this, if that's of interest to anyone... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7503949#post7503949
Bulk changing the assignee to banshee-maint@gnome.bugs to make it easier for people to get updated on all banshee bugs by following that address. It's usually quite apparent who is working on a given bug by the comments and/or patches attached.
I'm marking this as resolved. Feel free to re-open it if you still experience this bug.
