[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 535268] Re: banshee creative zen V mtp sync doesn't work at all

[Marc Tommasi]

I got the same error with my creative Zen Mozaic. I think the bug is
related to gvfs which conflicts with libmtp.

To avoid the bug, I use the following workaround (but I think it is not satisfactory :-) ) 
- quit  banshee (not close, but quit)
- plug your zen
- open nautilus clicking on the zen icon in the dock
- umount the device !
- open banshee (be sure the mtp support extension is activated)

It works for me.

Marc.

Title:
  banshee creative zen V mtp sync doesn't work at all

Status in libmtp:
  Unknown
Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: banshee

  I am confident that libmtp (1.0.2.1-ubuntu1) works since Rhythmbox can
  sync to the Creative Zen absolutely fine.

  Banshee can not. This is frustrating since Banshee is much better than
  the other music players in so many ways. But I need music sync'ing.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1) Connect Creative Zen 4GB to computer via USB
  2) Observe device entry in Places menu and on desktop
  3) Open Banshee
  4) Attempt to sync some song to this device in Banshee
  (occasionally) 5) Close and reopen Banshee if device does not appear in Banshee first time

  Expected result:
  Tracks are sync'd successfully to the MTP device

  Actual result:
  Failure to sync anything to the device. Rhythmbox works fine. Output from Banshee when started in terminal is attached

  Lucid Lynx alpha 3 64bit
