If it just needs them put in the right place (e.g. no database like iPods have), then out "generic player" support will work if the FDI files are set up right (once we get generic player sync anyway). The FDI files also contain information about playlists, although for some player I think there is some vital information the FDI files don't know. If Rhythmbox reads the playlists off you device now, it should be able to write them once we generic player playlist writing done. > Speaking of which: is there a documentation about the python bindings > available ? A short tutorial would also help. Unfortunately there are any tutorials yet, I've been meaning to write one, but never quite gotten around to it. The best idea at the moment tends to be coming onto the irc channel (#rhythmbox in irc.gimp.net) and asking, or posting here. We've happy to help, and if no-one answers on irc try again in a few hours, it might be the wrong time of day for us ;) If you build rhythmbox from source you can pass --enable-gtk-doc to configure, which will build (incomplete) documentation of the C api, and the Python api is very similar. It's certainly not a replacement for a real tutorial, but can help if you want to know what something does.
