Rhythmbox Displays Tracks Multiple Times from UPnP MediaTomb

[Gotit]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

I have MediaTomb setup as a UPnP server. When I check to see what MediaTomb is sharing under Shared in RhythmBox, shared tracks are displayed multiple times. I know MediaTomb's database relates several attributes to tracks it is sharing such as title, album, genera, year, artist...etc. It seems that RhythmBox displays a shared track once for each of the attributes.

Totem Move Player has the sense to group tracks by the attributes so you only see the track once under each attribute. I have attached screen shots from RhythmBox and Totem MP to help explain the problem

Ubuntu 10.04 i386
Kernel 2.6.32-26

Rhythmbox 0.12.8
Rhythmbox-plugin-coherence 0.12.8
Totem 2.30.2

This is an issue I've reported to Gnome's Bugzilla, and to MediaTomb's developers. Seems that MediaTomb's devs aren't actively maintaining the project at the moment. See the following links for details.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

I gave it a go, but found I could no longer install the Coherence DLNA/UPnP plugin in the latest Rhythmbox.
