GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 579847
Podcasts downloading can't be finished
Last modified: 2009-04-22 18:38:53 UTC
Please describe the problem: Binary package hint: banshee If Banshee begins downloading a podcast, the area "Downloading podcast(s)" in left-bottom corner appears and downloading goes on until at some point before "100%" this area disappears and downloading stops without any message. Banshee returns to state as before downloading and continues to work. This applies both to if downloading was started automatically or manually. While downloading Banshee creates temporary directory in ~/.config/banshee-1/downloads in which it places a temporary file. When downloading stops this directory is deleted. Steps to reproduce: 1. Add podcast 2. try to download long video or audio 3. it cancels automatically Actual results: banshee automatically cancel the downloading before reaches 100%, next time it starts over again Expected results: Does this happen every time? yes Other information: It seems that it is the same bug as the reported one at http://www.nabble.com/Podcasts-start-downloading-then-stop-at-random---td20493650.html. mattman writes there that navigating to ~/.config/banshee-1/downloads and selecting a temporary file prevents Banshee from stopping. I've tried so and got my first downloaded podcast in Banshee which appeared in ~/Music/Podcasts. However it is not a solution because it doesn't solve the problem with automatic downloading of podcasts when updating. Playing (streaming) a podcast without downloading by double-clicking it or pressing the play button works alright.
