It also adds new files.
So how does this mediascanner thing work?
When 'watching' a folder how often does it scan/rescan? Is it configurable?
If I can somehow create a smbfs mount on my media card, will canola2 see it? And is there a way to tell it to cache the contents, but dont keep rescanning?
Also, what components have source code avail at this point and where can I find it?
Thanks
As for smbfs, it should work, I don't see why not, we just use regular readdir(2) calls to walk directories.
About components with source code, we provide source of lightmediascanner (http://lms.garage.maemo.org/) and canolad, that uses this library and monitors media changes.

Download these two files to your device, add them to /home/user/:
then login to your device and as REGULAR USER (su - user) do:Code:http://staff.get-e.org/?p=users/chenca/canola-tuning.git;a=blob_plain;f=albumcover.py;hb=HEAD http://staff.get-e.org/?p=users/chenca/canola-tuning.git;a=blob_plain;f=videothumb.py;hb=HEAD
Note that since these scripts have no #!/usr/bin/python line at the beginning they have to be called using "python" explicitly.Code:python albumcover.py --help # info on how to get album covers python videothumb.py --help # info on how to thumb your videos using MPlayer

Anyone else having problems downloading pod casts?
Whenever I click on a podcast to download it, I typically get the following error message: "Error during downloading". I have to try about 3 to 5 times, or more, before the download actually works. This is in on all podcasts and either happens immediately, or at any point during the download. Again, eventually I can get it to download, but it takes multiple tries.
Also, anyone know how to change the default directory for podcasts? (warning I am a total Linux noob)
Thank you for any help you guys can provide!
As for where to store them, you can choose by using command line:
Code:
cnl-set-prefs settings podcast_download_dir '"/path/to/existing/dir"'

- If you use Xterm, then you are regular user already.
- If you use ssh, then you have to type: su - user

To add OGG support:
(Yet another newer package than the earlier ones, which those posts are updated too. This one is reported as working on IRC.)
I've also got mplayer installed, which is working fine for playing OGG files, and I've tried updating ~/.atabake/config as described elsewhere in this thread.
But no OGG support for me in Canola
Canola won't even list my .ogg files, let alone play them. So what am I doing wrong?EDIT: Sorry, I'm an idiot
I still had ogg-support-lms v0.1 installed and that didn't work. Installing ogg-support-lms v0.3 (and the one dependency libvorbis0a from TK's repo) has fixed the problem: I can now see all my OGG content

As for where to store them, you can choose by using command line:
Notice that you need both single and double quotes!Code:cnl-set-prefs settings podcast_download_dir '"/path/to/existing/dir"'
With regard to the downloads: what information do you need?
With regard to download directory: sorry, I am a total noob.... ...but I can't figure out what path to put. I want these downloads to go to the internal memory card/C2podcasts, however I don't know what the complete path would be for this.
Cheers!

I know that not all my repositories are working properly yet - every time I refresh my apps I get a different failed catalog. Maybe in another week or two I'll be able to reflash and reinstall everything successfully. Me thinks subjecting your customers to this kind of hassle and delay is a strange way to run a business Nokia.
