removeable storage device names cut off

[ewan colsell]

in mixxx 1.11 the names of removeable storage devices are not shown correctly in the library browser.

specificaly in a device name containing spaces only the first word is shown.

e.g.
"Some Cool Name" becomes "Some"

also some devices are shown with blank name entries.

tested on linux. (avlinux 6.0, built from lp)

Can't reproduce on OS X. Will test on Linux.

I can't reproduce this on debian wheezy. I don't have any installation of squeeze around to test if this error occurs there.

[RJ Skerry-Ryan (rryan)]

I also couldn't reproduce this on Ubuntu 10.04. Does this still happen Ewan?

[ewan colsell (ewanuno)]

Ewan do the drives appear in /media ?

mixxx will look for removable devices there.

Also can you navigate to the drive when your start from the root-folder in mixxx?

[ewan colsell (ewanuno)]

please close this bug, this is related to my distribution, not mixxx

[RJ Skerry-Ryan (rryan)]
