I forgot to mention this but album art is ok on my computer. Just not on the Ipod. Thank you for taking the time to report this problem. Can you please run banshee-1 --debug and attach the output. Also if you can find a place to upload a copy of ~/.config/banshee-1/banshee.db so that it might be available for further examination. The album art is unfortunately a bit problematic for all iPods, mine included. This however is a separate issue and should be filed as one. Also the next time, can I ask you to please break the text up in paragraphs to make it easier to read as well as giving your reports a more descriptive name. This makes our work a lot easier and increases the chances that we will be able to help you. I have encountered an album art problem in the past, whensyncing to an Android phone, so it's definitely not iPod-only.
Does the issue recur if you
1) move ~/.gconf/apps/banshee-1 out of the way, killall gconfd-2 and start banshee
(to restore, replace the new ~/.gconf/apps/banshee-1 with the one you saved
earlier and killall gconfd-2 again)
2) if that still does not work, if you move ~/.config/banshee out of the way and repopulate the music library from scratch
That, plus the debug output, would allow us to provide more information to the upstream developers. Thanks.
I ran rm -r ~/.config, and then reloaded my library. Resynchronising my Ipod afterwards fixed the album art issue. Removing that config folder in general fixes any issues I am having with banshee, but then I have to wait an hour or so for my library to reload. If you're wondering why I removed the entire .config folder and not just .config/banshee-1 it's because banshee likes to mess up everything in that folder apparently. That's another bug I plan on filing. However, the last time I needed to remove that folder I saved it as config_backup. I will attach the entire .config folder to see if that helps out. I have also attached the output from banshee-1 --debug as banshee_debug.txt. This was ran after I removed that .config folder though. I will file the album art issue as a seperate bug.

Upstream recommends checking this list of rescan bugs: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?query=product%3Abanshee+summary%3Arescan It looks like the first is particularly relevant: some files are deleted (in your case, moved) and these are not removed from the Banshee DB when it is rescanned. If you go back to the old database, and look on the left pane for the ones marked as missing, select them all and remove, would Banshee now sync properly? In which case, there is a decent workaround. The reason these files are not automatically removed is probably due to removable storage support -- you don't want to have to rescan files you have seen before that are just temporarily missing. Could you clear up where exactly you would like me to remove information? I was assuming it was from .config/banshee-1/banshee.db, but that file can't be read because it's in sqlite format, which I do not know how to open. This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
