libgpod is a shared library to access the contents of an iPod. libgpod library is based on code used in the gtkpod project. Starting with V0.96.CVS gtkpod depends on this library.
This code was originally part of gtkpod itself. When the parsing code was made self-contained with gtkpod V0.93, we chose to put this code in a separate library so that other projects can benefit from it without duplicating code.
libgpod supports playlists, smart playlists, playcounts, skipcounts, ratings, podcasts and cover art. Audio as well as video is supported. Photo support has been implemented with version 0.4.2.
libgpod is licensed under the LGPL.
Enhancements:
- This release fixes a problem with empty sort strings which caused multiple listings of albums on the iPod.

iAmarokPod is a SuperKaramba theme that controls Amarok audio player with the iPod look.

It displays the track name, the artist name, the album name, the album cover, the track length, the time remaining and the current index of playlist of the track that is playing in Amarok.

When Amarok is not launched the display goes black and when Amarok is launched but no tracks are playing, it displays the current playlist. The theme has play/pause, previous track and next track functionnalities.

The menu button calls the Amarok window. The Amarok logo turns the theme on/off. You can choose between the white or the black version.

LibQtPod provides access to the contents of an Apple iPod. The code was formerly part of the kio ipodslave, but is now a separate Qt-based library.
LibQtPod library features reading and writing of the iTunesDB music database and provides access to hardware specific information like disc space statistics.
Main features:
- Reading/Writing the iTunesDB Music database
- access to hardware specific information like disc space statistics
Bugs/noticable problems:
- please report any problem you encounter with the software to the sourceforge project page at http://sourceforge.net/projects/kpod
- Since podcasts and smart playlists are unsupported at the moment youll lose them when synchronizing the database.
Installation:
1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `qmake to configure the package for your system and to create the Makefiles. qmake can be found in the bin directory of your Qt installation. You may have to add the directory to your PATH before running it.
2. Type `make to compile the package.
3. Type `make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation.
4. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing `make clean.
Whats New in 0.2 Stable Release:
- This version contains lots of fixes and code cleanups.
- On the functional side, this release adds playlist sorting by setting one of the predefined sort order criteria and a new track(list) search implementation with user definable predicates.
- Browsing while on the go was speeded up by writing out type 52 MHODs; this may also result in smaller gaps between songs.
Whats New in 0.3 RC1 Development Release:
- Documentation fixes
- added trackNumber to ITunesDB::findTrack and TrackPredicated::ByFullInfo
- changed ITunesDB::findFirstTrackBy() and ::getTracksBy() to use a reference instead of a pointer to the predicate
- implemented Smart Playlists
- fixed DBID generation
- fixed ordering artists with a "The" in the name
- create backup copies for all DB files when writing
- implemented ipod initialization for pristine devices
- lots of small fixes - code + design
- builds with gcc-4.1

pypod is python library and script for managing iPod metadata. This project is similar in scope the gnupod (written in perl) and is designed to work well with other programs that generate iPod metadata.

ipod-sharp relies on libipoddevice.

ipod-sharp is a library that allows manipulation of the iTunesDB used in Apple iPod devices. Currently it supports adding/removing songs and manipulating playlists.

Installation:

The simplest way to compile this package is:

1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `./configure to configure the package for your system. If youre using `csh on an old version of System V, you might need to type `sh ./configure instead to prevent `csh from trying to execute `configure itself.

Running `configure takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.

2. Type `make to compile the package.

3. Optionally, type `make check to run any self-tests that come with the package.

4. Type `make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation.

5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing `make clean. To also remove the files that `configure created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean. There is also a `make maintainer-clean target, but that is intended mainly for the packages developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution.
