I also have this problem and would like this issue bumped up to a higher importance.
Here are my details. Ipod: 5th gen 80gb formatted on windows I used to use Amarok on Ubuntu 8.04 and everything worked fine. When I upgraded to 9.10 I got a new version of Amarok that was useless for podcasts. So I switched to Rhythmbox and it appeared to work ok. But it will not create playlists reliably. It will copy podcasts to the ipod, and will sometimes create playlists, but mostly not. It always *appears* to create the play list but the play list is almost always empty in reality. It does appear that it is creating some artifact on the ipod because when I plug it back in the play list is there, but it is empty. It appears that the ipod itself will not list an empty play list, but gtkpod does see these empty play lists and can put songs into them which them show up when the ipod is unpluged. gtkpod works fine with this ipod but does not manage podcasts so I want Rhythmbox to work properly please -- Rhythmbox does not save playlist on iPod https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496681 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
