[Bug 911555] [NEW] banshee does not see smart playlists in iPOD which it created

 

Public bug reported:

Banshee does not see smart playlists in the iPOD, even if those playlists were previously created by banshee
(I haven't tried dumb playlists, so don't know if the problem is specifically with smart playlists).

As a result, each time a library sync is done, a duplicate set of
playlists are added to the iPOD!

My iPOD is a 6th-gen Classic 160gb, and was initialized using gtkpod's
"Create iPOD directories" feature.

How to reproduce:

1. Mount the iPOD and rm -rf everything in it (rm -rf /media/ipod/* /media/ipod/.??*)
2. Run gtkpod and use the "Create iPOD directories" feature; eject the ipod.

3. Run banshee.  Create several smart playlists in the Music library.
4. Re-connect the iPOD.
5. Select the iPOD, enable 'sync entire library' and click the Sync button on upper right, then disconnect/eject
  (it may be necessary to "eject" the device through the desktop mount manager as well, but that's an unrelated problem)
6. Confirm that the playlists work in the iPOD

7. Re-connect the iPOD.  In banshee the playlists are not visible.
(8. Do another sync; one copy of playlists is temporarly visible in banshee; after disconnect, playlists are duplicated in the iPOD)
