I experienced the same problem with gvfs! For quite some time I had been using automount for my samba shares and importing all my music from my samba server into rhythmbox was working fine. Since I decided to get rid of automount and use gvfs to mount my shares instead, I started having this import problem as well (I'm currently using rhythmbox version 2.97 provided with Ubuntu 12.04). Just to play, I decided to use my old automount mountpoints and actually change them to symbolic links to my gvfs entries. In such a case, having chosen the symbolic link as the import folder, rhythmbox is now re-importing the files properly back again (and yes, I scratched the old database beforehand). I hope this could be of some help for both troubleshooting and as a temporary dirty workaround for users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/559658 Title: Music residing on GVFS mounted SMB shares won't be imported To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/559658/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
