GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 647644
banshee doesn't upload podcasts to iPod
Last modified: 2012-07-09 00:25:19 UTC
Banshee recognises my iPod nano 2gen, and it is able to sync music to the device, but not podcasts. It goes through the motions, and a dummy file is created in my iPod -because I can see it when listing all tracks- although it does not play back. I think the following might be the relevant bit of banshee --verbose: [Warn 14:09:14.264] Caught an exception - System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object (in `Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice') at Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice.AppleDeviceSource.DeleteTrack (GPod.Track track, Boolean removeFile) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice.AppleDeviceSource.LoadFromDevice (Boolean refresh) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice.AppleDeviceSource.LoadFromDevice () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at Banshee.Dap.DapSource.ThreadedLoadDeviceContents (System.Object state) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 [Warn 14:09:45.614] Cannot save track to iPod - System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object (in `Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice') at Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice.AppleDeviceTrackInfo.CommitToIpod (GPod.ITDB database) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice.AppleDeviceSource.PerformSyncThreadCycle () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0

I'm having the same problem on a first generation Nano.Serial ends in SZX. Model is A1137.
*** Bug 649050 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Line 293 of AppleDeviceTrackInfo.cs seems to be assuming that any device which supports podcasts will always have a "Podcasts" playlist? The relevant line from the debug is [7 Warn 16:55:12.312] Cannot save track to iPod - System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object (in `Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice') at Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice.AppleDeviceTrackInfo.CommitToIpod (GPod.ITDB database) [0x00373] in /home/creidieki/bin/banshee/src/Dap/Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice/Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice/AppleDeviceTrackInfo.cs:293 at Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice.AppleDeviceSource.PerformSyncThreadCycle () [0x000a2] in /home/creidieki/bin/banshee/src/Dap/Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice/Banshee.Dap.AppleDevice/AppleDeviceSource.cs:570
I wasn't aware podcasts should sync; I've never seen this work. Would be nice. banshee-2.2.0-1.6.x86_64
