So now in ubuntu 10.4 the device mounts as a standard USB removable device (memory stick). There is no longer a light-blue band with "These files are on a digital audio player" and basically I'm happy enough (I can drag and drop my podcasts and music from hard-drive to MP3 player).
However if the intention was to provide additional functionality in nautilus for MTP devices (e.g. provide meta-data columns - see my feature request at http://live.gnome.org/Nautilus/Ideas/multimedia- upgrade ) then I do think it's still worth pursuing - as I really do crave that stuff. Now I don't know what the point was of "These files are on a digital audio player" or how it was supposed to behave, so it is difficult to define whether this is still a bug or not. Previously I considered it a bug because I was unable to mount the MP3 player as a removable disk, so couldn't upload files to it in ubuntu without the work-arounds I described. That is now resolved, though I suspect that the behaviour is still not quite what the developers intended. -- MTP / gphoto2 device not showing files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405823 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
