Description jim.hanrahan 2010-09-20 14:35:56 UTC

I've just installed Banshee version 1.7.6 on Karmic. When I plug in my Nano 4G, it shows up in the window, but Banshee does not appear to be reading the database from the iPod. By that I mean, the song list that appears in the Window is not consistent with what's actually on the iPod. When I hit the sync button, Banshee shows files being transferred, but nothing seems to be written to the iPod. Finally, when I hit the eject button, a "disconnecting media player" message appears, but, again, nothing happens. I have to open the file manager and eject that way.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

Can you tell us if you have the AppleDevice extension enabled? (Edit -> Preferences -> Extensions) And how about the Ipod extension?

Can you also make sure that you're running 1.7.6? (Help -> About)

Thanks

Help -> About confirms that this is 1.7.6. I installed it from the new package posted on the PPA.

Under Device Support in Extensions, Apple Device Support (support for most iPod/iPhone/iPad devices) is enabled. I don't see a separate iPod extension. All other device support extensions are disabled.

Comment 3 Andrés G. Aragoneses (IRC: knocte) 2010-09-20 16:45:25 UTC

Ok, you may be hitting bug 627362 or libgpod may not have support for your device yet, but we cannot confirm until you attach a log file generated by banshee when doing the synchronization, so can you run it from a terminal this way:

banshee-1 > log.txt 2>&1

And attach the "log.txt" file here?

Thanks

Comment 5 jim.hanrahan 2010-09-21 02:06:21 UTC

First my apologies for pasting in the log file instead of attaching it... not enough sleep last night, I guess... and I don't see a way to edit it.

Looking it over, it seems to me that this might be bug 629838, which already has a patch. Unfortunately, I installed Banshee using a package rather than from source, so I can't easily test the patch until the next version comes out.

Still, I hope filing this helps you with your work.

Thanks.

You're right, thanks!
