Gtkpod is a platform independent Graphical User Interface for Apple`s iPod using GTK2.
Gtkpod supports the first to fifth Generation including the iPod Photo, iPod Shuffle, iPod mini, iPod nano and iPod Video.
Here are some key features of "Gtkpod":
· Read your existing iTunesDB (i.e. import the existing contents of your iPod including playcounts, ratings and on-the-go playlists).
· Add MP3, WAV, M4A (non-protected AAC), M4B (audio book), podcasts, and various video files (single files, directories or existing playlists) to the iPod. You need a third party product to download podcasts, like `bashpodder` or `gpodder`
· View, add and modify Cover Art
· Browse the contents of your local harddisk by album/artist/genre by adding all your songs to the `local` database. From there the tracks can be dragged over to the iPod/Shuffle easily.
· Create and modify playlists, including smart playlists.
· You can choose the charset the ID3 tags are encoded in from within gtkpod. The default is the charset currently used by your locale setting.
· Extract tag information (artist, album, title...) from the filename if you supply a template.
· Detect duplicates when adding songs (optional).
· Remove and export tracks from your iPod.
· Modify ID3 tags -- changes are also updated in the original file (optional).
· Refresh ID3 tags from file (if you have changed the tags in the original file).
· Sync directories.
· Normalize the volume of your tracks (uses mp3gain or the replay-gain tag)
· Write the updated iTunesDB and added songs to your iPod.
· Work offline and synchronize your new playlists / songs with the iPod at a later time.
· Export your korganizer/kaddressbook/thunderbird/evocalendar/evolution/webcalendar... data to the iPod (scripts for other programs can be added).
