Which version of shared-mime-info? Please include all the details about the bug here. > Which version of shared-mime-info? 0.22 > Please include all the details about the bug here. You mean you need further details then given on the related gnome bug or you want all details to be copy&pasted here? audio/x-vorbis+ogg is a descendant of application/ogg, so fix your application to check for parent types as well.

Correcting my controlpoint is doable of course but for supporting many other controlpoints out there, I'll have to replace "audio/x-vorbis+ogg" with "application/ogg" in the DIDLLite produced by my MediaServer. Whatever piece of code is asking tracker the mime-type should check probably check for the parent mime-type, and see if it's a known one. There's probably other cases where this would happen, as with quicktime/mpeg-4 sub-types. (In reply to comment #5) > Whatever piece of code is asking tracker the mime-type That is the UPnP server. It doesn't really do anything with the mime-type itself except for reporting it amongst other meta-data for each media item it export on the UPnP network. > should check probably > check for the parent mime-type, and see if it's a known one. And report the parent-type instead if that is so? > There's probably other cases where this would happen, as with quicktime/mpeg-4 > sub-types. > True. |
