Hi Michael, I agree with Chow Loong Jin that deleting your banshee database and re-importing your library will most likely fix everything in your latest description.
I'm sorry to hear of your frustration with Linux. That was my opinion circa 2008-9, but in recent years I have been much more pleased. I think I may have adjusted my use patterns. I agree that an open-source operating system just does not come with anyone who is paid to care about the problems we experience. But on the other hand, closed systems sort of don't have support either unless you are willing to go through a process that is at least as difficult, often worse. In the long run I am quite pleased with 14.04 and it's leaps and bounds ahead of where my first Ubuntu box was with 10.04. Best of luck with everything. -- 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.
