Re: [Banshee-List] First Ipod Connect

[matthewbpt <matthewbpt gmail com>]

I suspect its not to do with the disk, its how Banshee handles the databases
on the newer ipods. I've seen similar problems on windows based applications
that didn't write database files properly. The ipod shows that the space is
taken up, but since it cant recognize the database, that space as far as the
ipodOS is concerned is not music, its "Other."
