Bug Description

Binary package hint: f-spot

F-spot worked well under 8.10. Since upgrading to Jaunty F-spot recognises the camera A590IS and open f-spot. However when I press the copy button it gives the following error message. The files did not copy over.
f-spot version is 0.5.0.3 lbuntu6

I think I have this issue. When attempting to import from my camera, in "Transferring Pictures" dialog:

Error transferring file

[Retry] [Skip] [Cancel]

This seems to pop up once for every .AVI file in the batch to be transferred (it does not occur when transferring image files). The dialog box first displays a string like "Transferring mvi_43404-0.avi", followed by the error. If I select "Skip," f-spot continues to import files, but the next time it reaches an AVI file, it will once again complain about img_2222.jpg being missing.

The missing file referenced ("img_2222.jpg") does not exist on my drive.

If I create the file it's looking for (e.g. "touch /home/max/doc/pics/Snaps/New/img_2222.jpg"), it instead throws up an error that looks the same but complains about a different file being missing (e.g. "System.IO.FileNotFoundException: file:///home/max/doc/pics/Snaps/New/img_2223.jpg").

I may well have moved/renamed a directory at some point, as I do have a similarly named file in a subdirectory (/home/max/doc/pics/Snaps/New/2008-03-17--08.44.00/IMG_2222.JPG).

The AVI files do actually seem to transfer to the disk successfully. That is, the error seems to occur immediately AFTER each AVI file is transferred.
