I have made a bit of progress. I have checked out the source and i think
it may be a problem with the python bindings. Just to recap - gtkpod and
Banshee both work OK with this iPod, so the basic libgpod4 library
seems to be working correctly.
If I put some debug code in sync.py:
def open(self):
Device.open(self)
print "ipod mount point: ", self.mountpoint
if not gpod_available or not os.path.isdir(self.mountpoint):
print "Error opening gpod or with mount path."
return False
self.notify('status', _('Opening iPod database'))
self.itdb = gpod.itdb_parse(self.mountpoint, None)
if self.itdb is None:
print "self.itb is none."
return False
self.itdb.mountpoint = self.mountpoint
self.podcasts_playlist = gpod.itdb_playlist_podcasts(self.itdb)
if self.podcasts_playlist:
self.notify('status', _('iPod opened'))
print "iPod opened."
# build the initial tracks_list
self.tracks_list = self.get_all_tracks()
return True
else:
print "Unable to get playlist."
return False
The itunes database is opened OK but it fails to get the playlist in:
self.podcasts_playlist = gpod.itdb_playlist_podcasts(self.itdb) i.e.
self.podcasts_playlist returns false.
Ian.
