Description Elias Probst 2009-09-06 21:41:12 UTC 
Version:           2.1.80 (using 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1), Gentoo)
Compiler:          x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.30-gentoo-r6

How to reproduce:
→ Copy some tracks to an MTP device
→ While the copy process is still running, copy some more files to the same device

What happens:
→ A message box "Tracks not copied: the device is already being copied to" appears
→ Both copy processes fail

What should happen instead:
→ The other copy processes should be launched serialized (finish the 1st, start the 2nd, finish the 2nd, start the 3rd, ....) to prevent extreme slowdown as it often happens when opening multiple I/O-streams to flash devices.
→ When there are multiple copy processes to different devices, they should run in parallel

I also have this bug, and this is still present in 2.2.0.

Changed the title since it's not mtp specific

Is this still valid with Amarok 2.4.3 or current git?

I don't use Amarok anymore. Could anyone else of the CCs verify this?

Closing for lack of feedback. Feel free to reopen if you can reproduce this with the latest git build.
