Re: [slim] What 'library management' tool for synching with Sony mp3 player ( ipod)

2009-02-08 Thread ianof

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

I guess what I'm looking for is a tool that scans the music location
and updates the library location and updates automatically when new
folders added etc (I think the GOLD version of media monkey can do
this).  Ill look into the J. river media jukebox which also seems to be
able to do this.

Regards

Ian

Winamp with the ml_ipod plugin isn't bad.

If your directory structure is the same on both devices, and you're
using windows, you could just use robocopy (free utility - dl from
msoft) to mirror from your server to your player.
I use it to backup my music collection to external drives.

[slim] What 'library management' tool for synching with Sony mp3 player ( ipod)

2009-02-05 Thread ianof

I'm the proud owner of 2 SB3s and 1 Duet with all of my songs collected
over 20 years (20,000) held on a Tranquil PC SQA-5H home server running
squeezecenter 7.3.2 and MusicIP. 

I manage all of my song library through folders and occasionally update
the full squeezecenter library.

I recently purchased a Sony NWZ-739F mp3 player (loverly piece of kit)
because it is drag and drop and it allowed easily move the folders of
music I wanted.  However I've begun to realise the limitations of this
in that when I retag music it doesn't automatically sych through or I
can't easily create playlists on my PC (using musicip) and copy these
to the device.

So what I want is a tool that will sync to the Sony but which I can
point at my homeserver and refresh easily.  I do not want to have to
start managing my library through this tool (like Itunes forces me
to).

My son has an IPOD nano so I have itunes but I can't figure out how to
automatically recreate/refresh the library (other than remembering to
add the folders of music I add manually).  Single solution to both
devices would be brilliant.

Regards

Ian

You could also take a look at J. River Media Jukebox (free). It has nice
syncing features and can be set up to auto-import any external changes.
