podcast file handling confusing

[drx]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

A:
1. Podcast files were downloaded into the "Music" folder in home
2. In Preferences, the folder where to store podcasts was changed to "~/Music/Podcasts"
3. Downloaded files are not moved to the new destination.
4. When moving the downloaded files there, rhythmbox gets confused. (See other bugs about podcast files.)

Expected: The correct behavior should be that if metadata of a file or preferences of the software are changed, these changes must be reflected in the file system. (Banshee is doing this!) It helps great with syncing and finding files when rythmbox is not running (e.g. searching a file via SFTP, copying files to a medium, ...)

B:
Podcasts that are synced to my iRiver H300 running Rockbox end up in the usual "music" folder on this device, ordered by "Author".

Expected: It would be nice to be able to specify separate rules for syncing podcasts to a handheld.

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version.Thanks in advance and sorry for the late response.

I think Pedro's addition to this bug report was created automatically?

Developers probably know better than me if anything was handled in changing the files :)

I am still running Ubuntu 10.10 and don't want to up- or downgrade at the moment. Especially since there is no info if this bug was worked on or not.

What I am really saying is that this way of automatically handling bug requests with automatically asking reporting users to install new versions and see if they can still reproduce the bug behaviour doesn't work for all kinds of bug reports.

Bests,
Dragan
