Re: [Banshee-List] Banshee and a USB MP3 Player

["Josiah Ritchie" <josiah ritchietribe net>]

I'm wondering if something changed in the fdi structure in the Hardy
upgrade that changed how Banshee saw it. I think the FDI would be
referenced if available before the .is_audio_player file would be
given any attention. I may be totally off on this, but it gives you
something to look at. At some point I submitted fdi files to Ubuntu
for some other devices to identify them as music players. You could
probably accomplish this pretty easily.
