Exaile won't see wma files in library.

[Adam Olsen]

Exaile won't see wma files in the library. I am able to go through the Files tab and find the wma file, but it won't add to a playlist and the library won't see it.

This ticket was migrated from the old trac: re #766

Hi - am using the SVN (bzr) and am still getting this error as well. Command line reports something along the lines of:

 File "/usr/share/exaile/xl/media/wma.py", line 33, in fill_tag_from_path
 for wma_tag, tag in TAG_TRANSLATION:
 ValueError: too many values to unpack

Your copy is outdated. I fixed this particular problem a few days ago:

I have updated to the latest SVN version of Exaile, however most of the WMAs in my collection are not being picked up. Out of about 6,000 WMAs only about 1,300 have been picked up. Additionally, the ones that weren't picked up do not open and play in Exaile (though they will in other media players).

In many cases, some WMAs from the same album (ripped, encoded, etc... at the same time) were picked up and some were not. I have tried deleting the music.db altogether and rebuilding with the same results. The only thing resembling an error in C/L output is:

TypeError: sequence item 0: expected string, int found

Could you post the entire traceback?

Here ya go...

 run ( /usr/share/exaile/xl/library.py @ 612):

Fixed in 0.2.11 and main. The version in 0.2.11 is extra careful and is ugly, but it's less risky than the version I committed in main.
