Is that reproducible with another new user created on your system? it works pretty fine for me with latest packages on Hardy, thanks.

[blusa (corsiandr-libero)]

Here it's the same, with a brand new user too

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

Confirming, thanks for your report.

[Guillaume Desmottes (cassidy)]

This problem is due to a bug in the XML file of Jamendo. I sent them a mail explaining the problem.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

thanks guillaume, closing then that's not a rhythmbox issue

[Saivann Carignan (oxmosys)]

Guillaume Desmottes : The issue is still there, any news from jamendo and the xml problem?

[Guillaume Desmottes (cassidy)]

That has been forwarded to their technical team. I don't have more information.

Link to the jamendo developer forum :

[Ralf Nieuwenhuijsen (ralf-nieuwenhuijsen)]

No news at all on that forum. They didn't even read it.

Does somebody know _how_ to contact them?

Also, if you do get to speak to them, ask them to remove the useless data from that xml-file.
Or provide a different xml file with just the artist-names, album-names, track-names and track-ids.

Currently it contains html for artist pages and such. (they store generated html in their database? daily-wtf worthy!). Also the generated html isn't very clean, more like what front-page would do. 10 lines of <div style='margin: 7px'> .. yuck yuck yuck.

There is also another api, besides the database dump, but it shouldn't be used to fetch all data. (they have memory limitations). So, that's out of the question.

I still can't believe they just broke it and never looked back, not even notifying anyone, while all these nice developers making sure it works with their players (amarok, rhythmbox) .. that's one way to destroy any good-will.

Problem fixed by Jamendo!
It works again. Sylvain from Jamendo wrote:

Hi,

This problem has been fixed a few hours ago. I also posted a message on our forums to notify the users.

Sorry the issue remained for so long. We now validate the XML files before uploading them so it won't happen again.

Regards,

    Cher Laurent!
    nous avons écrit deja dans le forum, mais nous n'avons pas recu une reponse. L'amarok et rhythbox plugin in Linux/Ubuntu est cassé, parceque Jamendo a changé une xml-file. Could you please have a look?

FIXED!

[Guillaume Desmottes (cassidy)]

Ok, so the Jamendo guy just told me that should be fixed and they added checks before updating the XML file to avoid this kind of problem.
The Jamendo plugin actually works for me on Hardy.

Could you retest please? Remove ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/jamendo/dbdump.en.xml* to be sure.
