[Desktop-packages] [Bug 992815] Re: rhythmbox crash when managing podcast ipod after Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
The crash is still there. My solution was to give up on using an iPod on Ubuntu, and since I didn't want to give up on Ubuntu, I bought a cheap Sony MP3 player and wrote a small mtp-sync utility which synchronises my tablet and MP3 player with my gPodder directory hierarchy. This solved my problem, but this required a knowledge of PHP, C, libmtp and mtp-tools so is not a general user solution. It does seem a shame that between Apple and Ubuntu, we can't get a workable iPod solution for Ubuntu that doesn't crater leaving the iPod internal music directory corrupt. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992815 Title: rhythmbox crash when managing podcast ipod after Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: After upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS two days ago rhythmbox can no longer manage podcast files on an ipod.

I've adopted a workaround of reformating my iPod to factory settings on my wife's winXP laptop, and only moving new pocasts to the iPod, but this has now stopped working.

I tried to use Banshee as a workaround. If I deleted multiple files then Banshee also crashed. If I deleted files singly then it seemed to work, but when I "disconnected" (which triggers a Banshee sync to iPod) I found that my iPod content has vanished according to the iPod GUI, but on reconnection they were still listed in Banshee. Resyncing with Rhythmbox recovered access but again with the N duplicate copy issue. I don't know if this is two independent bugs. But my main point here is there isn't a workaround to this problem, and repeatedly plugging an iPod into Rhythmbox, means that you have to do a full factory software restore to bring the system back to a usable state. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992815 Title: rhythmbox crash when managing podcast ipod after Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS two days ago rhythmbox can no longer manage podcast files on an ipod.
