Problem with large music collection over Internet

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I set up mt-daapd + ssh tunneling to get my songs over the Internet. It was working alright till I introduced a big music collection (18K songs). Now, from banshee (which was working previously) it seems to be trying to connect for a while, but at the end it says it cannot connect.

The “-d 9” I get a lot of output when banshee start to try to connect, the last lines are:

After that there is no more debug messages and after a while, banshee says it can’t connect.

Any idea?

Not sure. Clearly there is something in the output that banshee doesn’t like, or else perhaps it’s timing out.

Does banshee display any debug information?

[Anonymous]

No, unfortunately Banshee does not produce other information. I cannot use Rythmbox since I’m not using the usual port. Can you suggest some other client I could use that provides more debug info?

Did you try running banshee from a terminal session to see what got emitted on stdout?

[Anonymous]

Yes, but saw no relevant messages (no messages between the point when I select the share and when it says it failed) and looks like there isn’t a “banshee -v”. I tried changing to the normal port to use rhythmbox but the share still does not show up, I guess it ignores local shares.

yeah, that’s a known rhythmbox bug. I think they call it a feature, though.

I tried using iTunes on a mac as client and it lists 15% of the files and playback works fine. Do you know any other client in Linux I could use?

Hrm.. banshee, rhythmbox and amarok are the only linux clients I know of.
