Confirmed Eric Ongerth's issue. I also have a repurposed music hard drive from my (recently past) Windows days.
I can force Banshee to work by first navigating to the file system & hitting open with Banshee, but this is a huge pain in the ass to do every time I boot my computer. If not, it tells me it can't find the file, etc. I'm also new enough at this game not to know a simple way to mount the drive every time I log in. Any quick pointers for simple ways to do this? I'm talking one line in terminal... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to banshee in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/751575 Title: banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: banshee I can no longer play locally stored music in Banshee.
