Free anisoft ipod software for linux

So far, we have successfully ported a customized uClinux (http://www.uclinux.org) kernel to the iPod, and written a simple user interface for it dubbed podzilla. Many additional Applications have been written, adding many capabilities not found in Apples firmware.

Our bootloader allows for you to choose between either iPodLinux or Apples firmware each time you turn on your iPod. iPodLinux is currently safe to install on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation iPods.

We are currently accepting Donations towards the purchase of a fourth generation iPod for us to test with. The fourth generation click wheel, mini, U2, Photo, and Shuffle iPods are NOT currently supported. For the latest information on 4th gen development, read the Fourth Generation Project Status.

last played is a small script that shows the last 5 files a mounted iPod shuffle played in shuffle mode.
Since you look at this page, you probably own an iPod shuffle. If you are like me, you like to upload new music on it, set it to shuffle mode and enjoy. Yeah!
Until there comes a song you really love or hate, but your trusty shuffle lacks a display, so there is no way to know (other than to memorize some lyrics and google for them) which song it was.
Luckily, there is an easier way: last played is a small python script that will put the last 5 (or whatever you tell it on command line) files you listened to on screen. Now you can simply delete songs you hate and give 5 stars to songs you love.
I recommend putting the last.py on the root directory of your shuffle. You can then start it from there using
python last.py
on the command line.
last played is released under the terms of the GNU GPL.
Version restrictions:
- Since the iPod shuffle recreates its shuffle sequence whenever the end of the current shuffle sequence is reached, the script might return wrong results now and then. I have not yet tested it thoroughly enough to confirm it, sorry. However, this should not happen too often.
Enhancements:
- This version now (probably) finds a shuffle under MS Windows, and detects if the sequential mode was set, showing the right files in this case.

goPod project allows you to remove the EU Volume limitation from 3rd and 4th generation iPods, and iPod minis.

goPod is a command line program that allows you to remove the EU Volume limitation on EU iPods.

We cant be held responsible for the use you make with this program or any damage it could cause to you iPod.

It is provided for information purpose only. Moreover, uncapping your iPod and using it is illegal in France.

Usage:

To apply the tweak, you may have to launch your iPod in HDD mode. To do so, in iTunes, select your iPod and click on the disk icon on the lower-right part of the iTunes window.

Launch goPod. Just click go to cap it/uncap your iPod. If it is not detected, clicking go will make goPod trying to detect it again.

JUST CLICK ON GO ONCE, it may take some time (5 seconds). I know its a bit "slow", but this is for compatibility reasons.

Once your iPod is capped/uncapped, you *may* have to restart it. To do so, press the menu button and the central button during 3 seconds if you are using a 4G iPod or the menu and play buttons if you have a 3G until you can see an apple.

This reboot should be automatic.

Whats New in 0.2 Stable Release:

Monopod project is a simple Podcast client.

Monopod is for people who want to select a few channels, come back later, and find that the Podcast MP3s turn up on the hard disk.

Since falling in love with the little stick of goodness that is the iPod Shuffle, I decided to get into this podcast thing. You know, where MP3s are attached to RSS feeds and downloaded to your computer.

Unfortunately, none of the obvious Linux podcast software really fitted my needs. Either too lo-fi (bashpodder) or just completely scary (iPodder). So I started to write my own.

Monopod is a simple Podcast client.

Its for people who want to select a few channels, come back later, and find the the Podcast MP3s turn up on the hard disk. People like me.

The user interface will get better in the future, but for now its based on an icon in the system notification area. Right-click it, select "Subscriptions", and off you go.

Downloaded files will turn up in the "Monopod" directory in your home directory. Theres a directory per channel, and an M3U file in there with a playlist for each channel.

kuickPod is a konqueror service menu for gnuPod.

kuickpod adds a service menu entry to konqueor, whenever you right-click on an mp3 file. Chosse "Add to iPod" for simply adding the file(s), or "Add to iPod and umount" for adding the file(s) and afterwards unmount the iPod.

Deleting files from iPod is not supported, yet.

As kuickPod is based on gnuPod, make sure youve this installed, and your iPod is initialized by gnuPod.
