[Natty beta1] Banshee does not sync files to Ipod 4

[markus haider]

Binary package hint: banshee

I am using Natty beta1 which comes with banshee 2.0. It correctly finds my ipod 4 and the music on it. When I try to move an album from my library onto the ipod, the status bar says it is adding the tracks, and on my ipod it says synchronise like if I would be using itunes. After the adding is done, it the banshee status bar says "Writing media database". After this is finished, I try to find the songs on my ipod, but they are not there. Also, if I disconnect and reconnect my ipod to banshee, I cannot find the files I copied.

Please could you run in a terminal "banshee --debug" and attach all the output information as a separated file (while you are trying to reproduce this issue)? Also could you include more details about your Ipod 4 for example which firmware version has? Thanks

I submitted this bug too, but I think it is the same problem. However, this only affects my attempts to move podcasts to the I-pod. Music is fine.

I recently encountered this bug using Banshee as delivered with Natty: On moving songs to the Ipod, both Banshee and the Ipod report success, but songs were never to be found on the Ipod.

Looks like a libgpod problem.
