Description Age Bosma (IRC: Forage) 2011-12-16 13:34:36 UTC 
When providing additional paths to folders you want to index, only one style works.

What's not working does give you the following message because of the @VIDEOS@ as one of the URIs.:
"MediaExport-Message: 'file:///home/forage/Videos' harvested"

Though the additional folder will not be served.

Where Rygel is failing, the message above will not be displayed, nor does the "debug" log level give you more, and Rygel is not accessible at all.

*Working*
uris=@VIDEOS@;/home/forage/Downloads/Movie Folder/

*Not Working*
uris=@VIDEOS@;"/home/forage/Downloads/Movie Folder/"
uris=@VIDEOS@;'/home/forage/Downloads/Movie Folder/'

*Failing*
uris=@VIDEOS@;'/home/forage/Downloads/Movie\ Folder/'
uris=@VIDEOS@;"/home/forage/Downloads/Movie\ Folder/"
uris=@VIDEOS@;/home/forage/Downloads/Movie\ Folder/

> *Not Working*
> uris=@VIDEOS@;"/home/forage/Downloads/Movie Folder/"
> uris=@VIDEOS@;'/home/forage/Downloads/Movie Folder/'

In this case g_file_new_for_commandline_arg takes the whole string as the name for a file in the current directory which of course fails.

> *Failing*
> uris=@VIDEOS@;/home/forage/Downloads/Movie\ Folder/
> uris=@VIDEOS@;'/home/forage/Downloads/Movie\ Folder/'
> uris=@VIDEOS@;"/home/forage/Downloads/Movie\ Folder/"

In this case GKeyFile has issues getting the value for that key.

There's nothing we can do about that apart from documenting it, I suppose.
