https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=440883 Summary: Banshee cannot handle command line with paths containing spaces Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Beta 3 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Banshee AssignedTo: abockover@novell.com ReportedBy: 1kfmm4x02@sneakemail.com QAContact: abockover@novell.com Found By: Other It looks as if Banshee has trouble with paths passed via the command line that contain spaces. How to reproduce: 1) Take an audio file and make two copies of it, naming the first "music.flac" and the second "music 1.flac" (use an appropriate extension depending on the type of the audio file). 2) Open a command shell in the directory containing these two audio files. 3) Execute "banshee-1 ./music.flac". 4) The file should open in Banshee. (This actually doesn't work every time, but that is probably another bug.) 5) Clear the playlist and quit Banshee. 6) Execute "banshee-1 ./music\ 1.flac". Expected result: Banshee should start playing "music 1.flac". Actual result: Banshee starts but isn't playing "music 1.flac". You can vary the sequence by placing the audio files in two directories, one called "banshee" and one called "banshee test directory": "banshee-1 banshee/music.flac" works, "banshee-1 banshee\ test\ directory/music.flac" does not. The behavior can also be seen in Dolphin (KDE 4.1). However, Gnome's Nautilus seems to handle it better. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=440883 User abockover@novell.com added comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=440883#c3 --- Comment #3 from Aaron Bockover 2008-11-20 14:27:51 MST --- This sounds like it's a bug in Dolphin/Konqueror. The Banshee .desktop file specifies that files passed should be encoded as URIs, meaning spaces should be eliminated.

Quit Banshee. b) Download the attachment and put it in ~/.config/banshee-1/boo-scripts (create the directory if it does not exist) c) Run Banshee as you would to reproduce this bug. d) Attach the ~/.config/banshee-1/log file to this bug, but ensure it includes some lines similar to this first (otherwise the script did not run and the output is useless): Environment.GetCommandLineArgs: /usr/lib/banshee-1/Banshee.exe --redirect-log --play-enqueued file:///home/aaron/Desktop/Test%20With%20Spaces.ogv ApplicationContext.CommandLine.Files: file:///home/aaron/Desktop/Test%20With%20Spaces.ogv As you can see in my test, the files with spaces are properly encoded as URIs by Nautilus, thus respecting the %U argument in the Exec line of the .desktop file. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Turns out I did have KDE4 installed :) This is the output I get with Konq: Environment.GetCommandLineArgs: /usr/lib/banshee-1/Banshee.exe --redirect-log --play-enqueued /home/aaron/Desktop/Test With Spaces.ogg ApplicationContext.CommandLine.Files: /home/aaron/Desktop/Test With Spaces.ogg As you can see, Konq is indeed not respecting the %U. Furthermore there is absolutely no way for Banshee to know how to handle it because the file is not even properly quoted on the command line. Environment.GetCommandLineArgs is the lowest level way of reading command line arguments and already at that level the file name is split up. This is a Konq/Dolphin bug all the way.
