CastPodder is a media aggregator that automatically downloads podcasts to your computer or portable device, leaving you one click away from the latest media feeds.

CastPodder is based on the iPodder idea of Adam Curry.

Transfer to Media Device is a script that creates a new Playlist Right Click Menu item for transferring selected playlist items to your iPod via the Media Device Browser.
This script now also supports generic copy to operation for USB mass storage devices. Currently the script will prompt for a destination directory on first copy, in the future this setting will be saved in a configuration file.
This script works with amaroK 1.3beta3 and above.
Usage:
Run from the amaroK script manager. A new menu item will appear in the Playlist right mouse button menu.
Select files in the playlist and Right click -> Transfer to -> iPod for transfering to an iPod.
Select files in the playlist and Right click -> Transfer to -> USB Device for transfering to a USB device.
Enhancements:
- Add support for Creative Nomad Jukebox devices using the kionjb kioslave. Thanks to Ralf T for the patch.

KAddressBook to iPod Synchronisation lets you synchronise your KAddressBook to your iPod by executing this simple script.

The script makes a few modifications to the addressbook file to make it readable by the iPod.

Amarok recently released the ability to synchonise music to your iPod, so I was finally able to stop using iTunes to transfer my songs. However I was still stuck using the Mac to sync my addressbook.

Well not anymore, after some quick poking around, and a simple script, I am now able to transfer my complete KDE addressbook (including photo), with a simple command line.

Just mount the ipod, and execute the script, passing the ipod’s root directory as a parameter. That’s it! The script loads your KDE addressbook, makes a few simple modifications the iPod requires, and copies it across.
