Hello!

I had the same problem:

1. backup your banshee db, for example banshee_new.db the banshee db is in ".config/banshee-1"

2. Install sqlite3 (for example: sudo aptitude install sqlite3)

3. In my case, change one disk that mount in /media/maxtor_500 for another that mount in /media/wd_500

4. Delete the songs that have maxtor_500 in their path:

a) computer> sqlite3 banshee_new.db
b) sqlite> delete from CoreTracks where Uri like '%maxtor_500%';

5. Now you can test the new bd: banshee-1 --db=banshee_new.db

If you know sql, you can do it better, with updates beetwenn delete, etc etc.

If it's seeing duplicates then those tags have already been lost since
they're attached to the old copy that is no longer there.  The only
way I can see to preserve this info is to craft a few database queries
and run them against the DB directly.

Have you tried to sync your iPod with Gtkpod? When I had an iPod I also had trouble to sync it with banshee. With Gtkpod it was no problem. Today I'm a happy owner of a Cowon S9 which works perfectly fine together with banshee :) _______________________________________________ banshee-list mailing list banshee-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/banshee-list

[Banshee-List] importing only "some" song from ipod to banshee

Hello to all! I am a new banshee user. And first thing i want to do is to transfer songs from my ipod video to my pc. I checked out the forum but, on my side, the ipod device is perfectly recognized (i took care to never upgrade the firmware with itunes!!!). However, here is my problem : from the windows displaying artists or song from the ipod, i can't drag them to the banshee library. More precisely, i can do it but it's only indexed, the audio file is not transfered. So if i eject the ipod, i can't play the song.... >From the top main menu, there is this function "import medias", but it will import the whole ipod library! I don't want any "all sync" between banshee and ipod : just the freeness to moove/copy some song from one to the other device. It seems strange this is not implemented as it worked with gtkpod - as long as i remember. Am i missing something?????? cool if you can help. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/importing-only-%22some%22-song-from-ipod-to-banshee-tp23398546p23398546.html Sent from the Banshee mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ banshee-list mailing list banshee-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/banshee-list
