** Description changed:
- I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 with Rhythmbox 1.12.8 and an iPod Nano 5th
- Generation. I can't figure out how to sync music and podcasts (in both
- directions like iTunes does) between RB and the iPod. Can Rhythmbox
- even do it? I think I have all the codecs necessary and Rythmbox has
- the Portable Players - iPod plugin installed and enabled.
-
- After much experimenting I figured out I can drag and drop individual
- Podcasts from Rb to the iP (but not in the other direction) and songs in
- both directions, but the interface is not intuitive at all and I can't
- figure out if there's a way to sync up as I normally would with iTunes.
- I also can't figure out how to move playlists from one to the other.
-
- After I figured out the limited workarounds noted above I saw similar
- workarounds proposed as an 'answer' to Question #97074, but I do not
- consider work arounds an adequate answer to my question. Since
- Rhythmbox is the default player in Lucid I believe it needs to 'just
- work' in order to give the fantastic user experience that Mark
- Shuttleworth has made the goal for Ubuntu. If these features are just
- missing as it appears, I consider them deficiencies in Rhythmbox and
- I'll create bug/wishlist items for them.
+ Lucid Rhythmbox is missing the normal synchronization feature (such as itunes
has) where the music player and computer fully synchronize their libraries in
both directions. The feature needs to be user friendly and it needs to be
included at some point in Lucid since Lucids is an LTS. Since it is such a
basic feature of a music program I believe it should be included in future
versions of the Lucid LiveCD when it is updated.
