I've experienced this problem with 2 CDs today. Both are present in the MusicBrainz database. I suspect the problem is that both CDs have "unusual" file/partition layouts.
One is this one (MusicBrainz link) http://musicbrainz.org/release- group/ca08ae46-d5ce-4587-b3f4-45a532f767b8 . When I insert it into the CD on Ubuntu 11.10, automount pops up 2 mount points, one the usual music CD and the other is named "David Hobson" (the artist's name) and contains a Windoze executable. From instructions on the CD jacket, one can download an extra song using this. The other CD is "Human Nature" "Counting Down" (http://musicbrainz.org/release/0ea44d06-51cb-4f5c-8a4f-87256956b5fe). This CD includes some image files and also causes Ubuntu to create two different Automounts, one for the music and one for the images. Could these atypical CD layouts be tripping up banshee? If a developer needs an .iso of one of these CDs to test with, I can supply. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to banshee in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/884159 Title: cddb not working Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, banshee does not query the cddb databases for CDs, it just says "Could not fetch track information" regards ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: banshee 2.0.1-1ubuntu1~natty2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-13.21-generic 3.0.6 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-13-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Oct 31 11:39:19 2011 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release amd64 (20100427.1) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/tcsh SourcePackage: banshee UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-10-29 (1 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/banshee/+bug/884159/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
