Comment 0 for bug 1159513

After updating to raring, Banshee freezes each time I try to import to an iPod any music file which needs transcoding (i.e., FLAC and OGG). Importing music which doesn't need transcoding works, so the problem seems to be with the transcoding process itself and not with the iPod interaction.

I am able to transcode the files manually with SoundConverter, though I usually need to start the process two or three times and I still get spurious error messages (typically, the message says the output file cannot be saved, although the output file IS correctly saved and it plays back just fine).

This too is new since the upgrade. I do not know if the two problems are related and if they indicate a deeper problem in the GStreamer stack. Please let me know if there is any further testing that I can perform to help assess the problem. Please also let me know if you wish me to report separate bugs against SoundCoverter and/or GStreamer.
