Package: mtpfs Version: 0.9-3 Severity: normal
I installed this package in the hope that it would allow me to upload playlists to my device, namely the iRiver SPINN [1]. From the mtpfs documentation I see that this is supposed to work through a virtual /Playlists directory on the mtpfs mount. However, my device _already_ has a real /Playlists directory, so when I mount it I get this unsettling picture: [24]matica:~$ ls -l mnt total 106 drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Flash Games drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Fonts drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Music drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Pictures drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Playlists drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Playlists drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Recordings drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Text drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Themes drwxrwxrwx 2 itz itz 0 Dec 31 1969 Video -rwxrwxrwx 1 itz itz 107125 Dec 31 1969 devicon.fil -rwxrwxrwx 1 itz itz 6 Dec 31 1969 devlogo.fil Not very surprisingly, saving an .m3u file to /Playlists doesn't seem to accomplish anything. The player doesn't explode, though, so there's something to be grateful for :-) You might think that I could mount the device in USB storage mode and simply save a playlist file to the existing /Playlists directory. That was my first try too, and the file does appear in the filesystem, but it is still not available as a playlist from the device UI. That may be because it needs some other format and of course the format is undocumented :-( [1] http://anythingbutipod.com/2008/10/iriver-spinn-review/ -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.36.2git (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages mtpfs depends on: ii fuse-utils 2.8.4-1.1 Filesystem in USErspace (utilities ii libc6 2.11.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfuse2 2.8.4-1.1 Filesystem in USErspace library ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libid3tag0 0.15.1b-10 ID3 tag reading library from the M ii libmad0 0.15.1b-5 MPEG audio decoder library ii libmtp8 1.0.3-1 Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) libr mtpfs recommends no packages. mtpfs suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
