Application Name Wrong in Gnome Sound Menu #4483

Closed gavinhoward closed 10 years ago

gavinhoward commented 10 years ago

Clementine's name in the Gnome Sound Menu on Ubuntu 14.04 is the name of a song in my library (specifically "Jon Schmidt - North Pole Express (Ding Dong Merrily On High)") rather than "Clementine".

I suspect this is Gnome Sound Menu using the title of the window instead of the Identity property from MPRIS2. This is probably their bug.

gavinhoward commented 10 years ago

It doesn't change though when I change songs. The title of the window changes, but the title in the sound menu does not. Still, I agree that this might be a bug in the sound menu.

Found the problem, after a few months. I was compiling a custom version of Clementine, rather than using PPA's, and I included the Gnome Sound Menu in the ccmake options. In Ubuntu, that's not needed. This is FYI to anyone compiling Clementine on Ubuntu.
