Since yesterday, all mounted USB devices don't show anymore in the Collection Browser, they still did before I recompiled this morning. Current amarok v2.7.90-68-g1b208a0 UMS collection enabled in the settings, 2 external USB HD mounted, one USB vfat key mounted, all devices show correctly in Dolphin, and show again when mounted once Amarok is started. Regression: mounted USB devices should show in the collection browser on start.
FWIW: I didn't update KDE packages in between
This is the bug I've worked on with Alex at Akqdemy. Alex, have you promised me to tell me a work-around so that we can still work fine with older KDE releases? *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 317485 ***
Okay, let's make this a non-dupe as we're going to work-around it.
Git commit cfaa48278274f70fab3f6e1b610660edafbf7bbc by Matěj Laitl. Committed on 30/07/2013 at 17:51. Pushed by laitl into branch 'master'. MediaDeviceCache: work-around Solid UDisks2 bug by not calling allDevices() Kudos go to Alex Fiestas for extensive debugging and finding out the root of the problem. BUGFIXES: * Work-around Solid UDisks2 backend bug that caused USB Mass Storage devices and iPods not being recognized when connected before Amarok was started. Also fixes a bug where blank devices would appear in Play Media dialog. (BR 322980) We don't need to call Solid::Device::allDevices() at all because that was only needed for Apple iPhone support for the *old* iPod collection that was replaced in Amarok 2.6.
