Title:
  Banshee freezes on copying to iPod music which needs transcoding

Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “banshee” source package in Raring:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  After updating to raring, Banshee freezes each time I try to import to
  an iPod any music file which needs transcoding (i.e., FLAC and OGG).
  Importing music which doesn't need transcoding works, so the problem
  seems to be with the transcoding process itself and not with the iPod
  interaction.

  I am able to transcode the files manually with SoundConverter, though
  I usually need to start the process two or three times and I still get
  spurious error messages (typically, the message says the output file
  cannot be saved, although the output file IS correctly saved and it
  plays back just fine).

  This too is new since the upgrade. I do not know if the two problems
  are related and if they indicate a deeper problem in the GStreamer
  stack. Please let me know if there is any further testing that I can
  perform to help assess the problem. Please also let me know if you
  wish me to report separate bugs against SoundCoverter and/or
  GStreamer.

  TEST CASE:
  1. Launch Banshee
  2. Attach an iPod
  3. Attempt to transfer files which are not natively supported on iPods (e.g. 
flac, ogg)
  4. Observe to see if the transcoding and transfer finishes successfully.

  If the bug is present, Banshee freezes halfway and does not complete
  the transfer.

  REGRESSION POTENTIAL:
  Not much. The patch appears to be fairly localized between the BPM detection 
and transcoding bits, and should fix Banshee freezing while performing BPM 
detection as well.

  Aside from the aforementioned two features, nothing else should be
  affected.
