New issue 269 by csma...@gmail.com: Status doesn't update with Rhythmbox
(Debian bug #648403)
http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-musictracker/issues/detail?id=269
Bug #648403 at http://bugs.debian.org/648403 reports that the now playing
song does not update for Rhythmbox since gnome 3 was installed.
I generally use audacious, that works. I can confirm I am seeing the
problem and it appears related to the mpris dbus stuff rather than the IM
protocols.
wireshark shows the IM status does not update.
running with -debug shows:
(13:53:37) musictracker: trying 'MPRIS'
(13:53:37) MPRIS: Trying org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.rhythmbox
(13:53:37) MPRIS: GetStatus failed No such interface
`org.freedesktop.MediaPlayer' on object at path /Player
Examining the dbus I'm getting lots of doesn't exist type messages.

It seems rhythmbox has changed its dbus format, lucky you!

I can confirm this, and also that the Rhythmbox specific interface also
does not work. If you select Rhythmbox in the musictracker settings the
error message becomes:
(18:45:57) musictracker: trying 'Rhythmbox'
(18:45:57) musictracker: dbus name 'org.gnome.Rhythmbox' has an owner
(18:45:57) musictracker: Failed to get playing state from rhythmbox dbus
(Method "getPlaying" with signature "" on
interface "org.gnome.Rhythmbox.Player" doesn't exist
). Assuming player is stopped
(18:45:57) musictracker: Rhythmbox,,,,0

I can confirm problem this either, on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with its default
rhythmbox and musictracker:
17:37:03) musictracker: trying 'Rhythmbox'
(17:37:03) musictracker: dbus name 'org.gnome.Rhythmbox' has no owner
(17:37:03) musictracker: Getting info failed. Setting empty status.

investigate what's wrong on our own. I'll try to hack on it a bit. I'm
using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS + Rhythmbox. It doesn't work.

I think that rhythmbox plugin is just another piece of software, and has
nothing to do with pidgin-musictracker.

1. This is a duplicate of #268 (it was opened five days earlier than this).
2. This is super annoying.
