Help me make your music player or phone recognized as such under Linux

Modern Linux distributions and more and more music library applications (such as Rythmbox and Banshee for example) are using informations stored in freedesktop.org‘s media-player-info project in order to handle correctly most USB Mass Storage media players (i.e. those which appear as an external USB disk). This allows the operating system and those applications to :

  • ask you if you want your device to be managed by your music library management software;
  • display the name and icon of your device;
  • retrieve the necessary informations to copy music on the media player (format, location);
  • handle playlists.

In the future those informations might allow your software to manage correctly:

  • your album covers;
  • your videos.

How can you contribute to this project?

The media player database is growing fast but with the even faster growth of new devices arriving on the market it still often happens that your specific device is not perfectly handled. Having contributed a number of patchs to add support for unknown devices, I’m offering to do it for your device(s) (and those of your friends too) if you don’t want to spend time to actually write and send the patch yourself.

So if your device is not in this list or if it is there but the information stored in the corresponding file seems wrong or incomplete (you can notice such an issue by reading the file or simply by plugging your device in your computer with a recent Linux distribution), please do comment this post and give me some informations about your specific media player or phone (please try to use the following proposed format) :

Minimal informations

  • Device name: e.g. W995
  • Manufacturer:  e.g. Sony
  • USB ID:  e.g. 0fce:e112 ; to find this information you can type lsusb in a terminal window (Terminal can usually be accessed under GNOME in Applications/Accessories/Terminal) and find the line corresponding to your device after plugging it. If you’re unsure of the correct line, juste paste the whole command output.
  • Music folder(s): e.g. /Music (case sensitive)
  • Music formats: e.g. audio/mpeg;audio/mp4;audio/aac (or, if unsure, media file extensions (.mp3, .aac…)

Additional informations (optional)

  • Playlists folder: e.g. /Playlists (case sensitive)
  • Playlists formats: e.g. audio/x-mpegurl;audio/x-scpls (or, if unsure, playlist extensions (.m3u, .pls, etc.)
  • Cover folder:  e.g. /Covers (case sensitive)
  • Cover formats: e.g. jpeg, integrated
  • Video folder: e.g. /Videos
  • Video formats:  e.g. mp4&width=320&height=240 (or, if unsure, file extensions and resolutions)

What devices should not be reported here?

  • devices that are only managed using MTP protocol (those are handled by libmtp);
  • devices that are not using mass storage transfer (i.e. those which are not handled as a normal USB disk).

Whether you’ve got the last hot phone on the market or you found an obscure no-name MP3 player free in your cereals, please don’t hesitate to send those informations. Your contribution will benefit a lot of other fellow Linux users and your device will be better handled next time you update your system!

  5. The Nokia N900 is capable of playing ogg vorbis files after installing an extra package, but I’m not sure how this should be represented in the file. The device as shipped doesn’t support them, but I don’t want Banshee to waste its time converting files when it doesn’t have to.

    Répondre

    1. @ssweeny

      As we cannot easily detect this, mpi files should describe the out-of-the-box support of the device. Then the user should be able to override those defaults from his music player (I know someone has started writing something like this for banshee).

    1. @Jeff

      Thanks, I’ve added it. But you should put your phone in mass storage mode (the usb id you provided is « PC Mode »). You can change the USB mode by showing the top bar and clicking on the USB icon.

    1. @Sanni

      Could you please check that this phone is indead matched by the S60 rule ? I guess you can check this with something like udevadm info –export-db | grep -i S60

      Thanks

      Répondre

      1. No, you grep returns nothing, but full listing contains line « E: ID_VENDOR_ID=0421 » so it fit under S60 rule.

        P.S. According to brx comment his 5800 have Music folder in CamelCase, strange… May be my phone has been changed at retailer shop (I’ve received it opened)

        P.P.S. It good to set special case for 5800 for it’s wider range of music support, like m4a files

        Répondre

  13. I have a Samsung Yp-T9 (with the Korean / UMS firmware — Smasung sold those as MTP devices in Europe and America, but could flash them to become UMS devices, same with T10 above) and while it’s in the list, please note:
    * there’s a « Music » subfolder where music should be copied
    * while you can play OGG’s on the player with the « File Explorer », the device doesn’t understand OGG tags, therefore the music library updater ignores OGG’s (= preferably music should be transcoded to MP3 / WMA if it has to be transcoded)

    Répondre

      1. Sorry, if my wording seemed to imply that — all I wanted to say was that both T9 and T10 have UMS and MTP firmwares (however, I think the T10 even has a hack that allows you to transfer OGG’s over MTP).

  15. Hi Jonathan,
    How about you create a launchpad team for keeping this up to date and use the bug reports as the method of submitting device information, that way others such as myself can help out, and we can also create a ppa so an up to date package for ubuntu users is always available.

      1. Thanks Sudhir and thanks again David for notifying me !

        I’ve added your phone to m-p-i and the usb ids to usb.ids.

        Would you mind sending me the usb ids of your phone with debug mode enabled (settings/applications/development/USB debug)?

        Répondre

        1. debug mode was already enabled when i ran lsusb. Do i need to ran any other command to get the debug id? And how do i get the latest m-p-i will it be automatically updated? Thank you so much.

          Répondre

        2. Could you then run lsusb without the debug mode enabled so that we have both ids?

          As for getting the latest m-p-i, let me know what distribution you are using and I’ll try to give you instructions so you won’t have to wait the next update of your distro.

          Répondre

        3. USB ID (without debug) 0bb4:0ff9
          USB ID (with debug) 0bb4:0c8d

          And i usually use the developmental release of Ubuntu. Thank you for your help.

          Répondre

        4. Thanks again, the non debug mode has the same ID has Desire/Hero so it should be working already.

          If you are using Natty, you should get the new media-player-info version next tuesday.

  41. Ping : Banshee: Video, TV shows, Windows and hackfest, oh my!

  42. I found this page while researching Banshee and syncing and I found the link in an omgubuntu comment. Anyway I have three MP3 players I use with Ubuntu 10.04 and thought I’d contribute the three players I have. They’re generic, but I thought it might help others who have these players.

    These players all show up as a USB disk, basically they’re a USB stick with buttons. It’s interesting to note that the MPC853 and MPC843 came up as ALi Corp. MP3 Player when I did the lsusb command (though they say Coby on them). I don’t know much about technical stuff on devices, but I thought I’d point this out since it might be helpful.

  71. Device name: N9
    Manufacturer: Nokia
    USB ID: Bus 002 Device 006: ID 0421:0518 Nokia Mobile Phones
    Music folders: /Music
    Music formats: MP3/WAV/eAAC+/WMA/FLAC
    Video folder: /Movies
    Video formats: MP4/H.264/H.263/WMV

    The audio spec from the producer says:
    MPEG-4 AAC , eAAC, eAAC+, MPEG-1 audio Layer2 (MP2), MPEG-1 audio Layer3 (MP3), WMA 9, WMA Voice 9, WMA Lossless 9, WMA Professional 9 and 10, Dolby Digital Plus (AC-3 & E-AC-3), FLAC

    The video format spec says:
    H.263, MPEG4-SP & ASP, H.264 BP/MP, WMV9 / VC-1 and Mkv (Matroska)

    The playlist options are probably the same as N950 in the comment above

    It also has a picture of itself at /.icon.ico

    I cannot see any covers directory, but the included music files had cover art integrated in the id3 it seems.

  72. It seems there is a problem, I own an Xperia Arc phone. When plugged Banshee recognizes the phone as an Xperia X12. Nobody calls this phone X12 anymore, it was a code name; the same as Anzu another code name for the Arc. Nowadays it’s called everywhere in the world Xperia arc.

    Here’s the GSM arena page of the phone where you can clearly see the name is Xperia arc, noting that at the top of the description the other names are shown but they are not the main name.
    http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_xperia_arc-3619.php

    The wikipedia page for this phone is also under « Arc » where is it shown that it’s also known as X12, but nobody calls the phone like that, it’s arc and not X12
