Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
Several of the RSS podcast feeds I listen to, periodically include a
video, or pdf file rather than an MP3... Rhythmbox downloads the file,
and then says that it failed, I like the fact that it downloads the
file, becuase I can see it and watch, or read as required, infact when I
sync to my portable player, it can handle both PDF, and video files, so
the behaviour is actually good.
The problem I see is that these files are shown to have failed to
download, and cannot be played from within rhythmbox.... It would be
very useful if rhythmbox could show the files having been downloaded,
and possibly show that they are non-audio.... ideally, attempting to
play them would spawn an external player, but simply indicating that the
file was infact downloaded, but cannot be played would be a great
improvement over simply saying "Failed", because retrying will cause the
file to be downloaded again, creating a duplicate.
This is on 8.04 with rhythmbox 0.11.5
