Pulling Albums explodes with KeyError: 'album_id'

[Dario Ernst]

After manually increasing the urllib timeout for connection to ampache and a successfull artist pull of 18k artists the album pull exploded with what it seems was a encoding error (oh, i myself also love en- and decoding stuff in python!)... and a (resulting?!) KeyError for album_id... traceback:

Plugins = {'pidgin_status': <pidgin_status.PidginPlugin instance at 0x89ed32c>, 'template': <template.TemplatePlugin instance at 0x89ed64c>}

Confirmed. Encoding and decoding is awful business, but this should have been solved in my latest iteration. Are you using Viridian 1.2 or did you pull the code directly from launchpad? I think the newest revision should have fixed this.

btw 18k artists? that's insanity.. i'm glad Ampache can catalog it all for you!

Hello,

thanks for the reply - i'm still waiting eagerly to be able to use viridian :).

As launchpad is quite confusing to me and i don't really know bzr (even worse: the bzr-launchpad-crosslink thingy) ... will i get that latest iteration via "bzr branch lp:viridianplayer", then just normally setup.py build that stuff in there (also - still had to fix urllib timeout manuall ... yes, 18K is much, also ampache is the only system i know that handles that database nicely. But with todays optimized software and fast hardware and networking i don't really see why this should be a problem?).

Back to topic - if that bzr command gives me that latest iteration i isn't fixed unfortuneatly - i get exactly the same errors.

Thank you for your help so far -
Kind Regards
