[Bug 787475] Re: Rhythmbox [0.12.8] & [0.12.5] Not Fetching Album Information From MusicBrainz

 

I agree with Paul - it is a shame that it's taken so long to get this
fix to end users.

Don't get me wrong, I applaud the work of the open source community and
have the greatest respect for those who give their time to support open
projects, however I suspect the slow turn-around of this particular case
has disheartened a number of would-be Linux users and put people off
using Rhythmbox and Ubuntu.

Title:
  Rhythmbox [0.12.8] & [0.12.5] Not Fetching Album Information From
  MusicBrainz

Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application:
  Fix Released
Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  May 24th, 2011

  On my two Ubuntu machines Rhythmbox is not fetching album tagging
  information from MusicBrainz even though the information exists on the
  MusicBrainz database. I checked with the picard program I had on the
  machines. The CD lookup revealed the tagging information in picard.

  Here are my machines:

  Pentium D
  Memory 2.9 GiB

  9.10 [kernel 2.6.31-23-generic]
  Rythmbox 0.12.5

  libdiscid0   [Version: 0.1.0-1]
  libmusicbrainz4c2a   [Version: 2.1.5-2ubuntu1]
  picard   [Version: 0.11-2ubuntu3]

  ||||||

  Core 2 Duo
  Memory: 2.0 GiB

  10.04 [kernel 2.6.32-31-generic]
  Rythmbox 0.12.8

  libdiscid0   [Version: 0.2.2-1]
  picard   [Version: 0.12.1-0ubuntu1]
  libmusicbrainz4c2a   [Version: 2.1.5-4]

  I will check in over the next few weeks to provide more information if
  necessary.

  Hope this helps,
  Thanks,
  Mike
