Error with rhythmbox

21 November 2019, 22:42:02

I have been using Rhythmbox for quite awhile without any issues, but after the last update I am now getting the following error when running Rhythmbox.

Code: [Select]

(rhythmbox:4992): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: 21:24:25.348: Unable to grab media player keys: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.MediaKeys was not provided by any .service files

Is this related to systemd?

If it is then I'll just have to replace Rhythmbox, anyone recommend a non-systemd audio player that can manage podcasts?

i don't think so, that's just a dbus/gsettings warning that should be non fatal..
the last two packaging changes: https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/log/trunk?h=packages/rhythmbox
are the rebuild for python3.8 and changing "errors" to "warnings"..
