[Banshee-List] Android - format not supported and no converter found



Hi,

Connecting a Samsung Galaxy S2 with Gingerbread 2.3.6 to oneiric and banshee 2.2.1. I can transfer audio files and mp4 video files to the device without a problem but I can't transfer wmv files, avi files or mpg files. I get the error: Device does not support these formats and no converter found. But my device does support these formats. I also cannot transfer .mov files - my device does not support hardware decoding of this format but I was hoping Banshee would transcode on the fly like it transcodes wav to ogg on the fly.

I've tried adding my own is_audio_player file to the device, and I've tried editing the appropriate .mpi file in /usr/share/media-player-info/ without success... I've tried using miro to transfer the files after recompiling ffmpeg (as described at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095) and it does so but it seems quite inflexible in that it converts all files to a single format for audio and another for video. The interface is also not very nice and banshee has better features.

Has anybody found a solution to this problem or is it a bug? Is it possible to tell banshee to use ffmpeg?

Regards,

visual1ce
