Okay so I've been hearing a lot about the ipod and generic mp3 plugins for rhythmbox and they sound great. What I've been trying to find out is, does Rhythmbox transcode music files into the necessary format when you drag them onto an ipod or generic mp3 player?
For example will it transcode ogg vorbis files to mp3 files so the mp3 player can play them? That would be a really neat feature. I have a couple of Ubuntu users who I provide support for who have ipods, so good ipod support in rb will be greatly appreciated. I have another user who ripped a lot of music into ogg with SoundJuicer, then without realising went out and bought an mp3 player. So... the transcoding would be really appreciated! They are all on ubuntu breezy or dapper right now. But edgy will be released soon and has rhythmbox 0.9.6. So I'm wondering if, instead of using lame to re-encode all their music files, telling them to install GTKPod, etc., I should just tell them to wait for edgy and upgrade. _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
