Hi,
I want to start this thread with the following goal. Get full iPod support inside MediaPortal.
To to this I asked hwahrmann if he could help develope iPod support for inside MediaPortal.
Are there any users who would like to have iPod support ?
I made a first setup for iPod support:
I developed a eject/safely remove menu item to safely eject my iPod from within MP
the following guide could be taken when developing iPod support:
Step 1
reading the itunes.db on the ipod and using that to display music in MP.
Just the following tags will do for basic ipod support for music only
Artist, album, track number, titel, ( the other tags can be done in a latter stage
safly remove ipod, I made a plugin that can do that, but user has to ad drive letter.But safelyremove works
Step 2
extend ipod support for all tags
Copy songs from iPod to HD
Podcast support
Audiobook support
Support for Audible.com audiobooks (read)
read lyrics in ID3 tag
auto locate ipod and safely remove ipod with no external programs
Read coverart
Step 3
Video support (read/view)
Step 4
Sync specific playlist
Sync smart plalists
Syn specific smart views
Copy songs to iPod
Automatic sync upon connection
Step 5
Transcode video to iPod
Step 6 Aditional features
Volume boost
Renaming iPod
Autofill based on MP database
