[Jarno Suni <1183948@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a similar problem with a Samsung smart phone in Ubuntu Studio
14.04. I don't use Nautilus, but I can copy files in Thunar file manager
from the device connected in MTP mode to local hard drive. However, I
can not open the same (source) files for reading by e.g. VLC. In
terminal I can cd to the directory under /run/user/ and ls there and see
I have is rw access, but I can not even copy the files by cp: cannot
open <filename> for reading: Operation not supported

Title:
  Can not read/write files to walkman (MTP)

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  So today I connected walkamn to my ubuntu pc knowing that it used to work at least on every other versions of ubuntu I have tried, latest 12.10
  So I connected it and it showed files and folders as it used to but when I try to play something, it did not work, vlc even showed an error massage

  [CODE]File reading failed:VLC could not open the file "/run/user/levan/gvfs/mtp:host=%5Busb%3A001%2C006%5D/65537/7/6268". (Operation not supported)
  Your input can't be opened:
  VLC is unable to open the MRL 'file:///run/user/levan/gvfs/mtp%3Ahost%3D%255Busb%253A001%252C006%255D/65537/7/6268'. Check the log for details.[/CODE]

  and I do not remember if it used to show the location of walkman as

  [CODE]mtp://[usb:001,006]/65537[/CODE]

  on other ubuntu for example (12.10) this thing used to work even
  better than on windows ??

  does not work in ubuntu 14.04 as well
