Package: rhythmbox
Version: 2.97-2.1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Using Rhythmbox to populate a USB stick with mp3 files for playback in a car stereo:
I created .is_audio_player in the root of the USB filesystem with the following contents.
audio_folders=mp3/
folder_depth=2
output_formats=audio/mpeg
playlist_format=audio/x-mpegurl
playlist_path=playlists/%File
I created directories "mp3" and "playlists".
Rhythmbox recognizes this USB stick as a portable player, but it will not
transfer files to the USB stick.
Workaround:
touch /media/usbstick/mp3/x
Restart Rhythmbox and now it will transfer files to the USB stick, and transcode
them to mp3 if necessary. So this feature does not work if the audio_folder is
empty, but it will work if the audio_folder is not empty.
