You might have a player that uses the mtp (Microsoft Transport Protocol) to transfer files rather than one that automatically mounts as a filesystem. A bit of googling turns up some links - install libmtp, and then you can use command line tools in that package to send files and/or sync your player. You can also get Amarok to recognize the player as well using that method, for a little bit better syncing experience. See for instance http://www.funzt.info/?p=121 Also here: (and my post from Oct 2007 is there: http://www.debianhelp.org/node/11395 I used to have an Iriver T30 (it stopped working) that used the same interface (using lenny).

It mentions unavailability of libmtp-dev on Etch, though. I can't remember if I was able to sync my Iriver T30 with amarok during the time I was running Etch, but maybe in Lenny, so you might try when Lenny goes stable to use amarok to sync the player, otherwise you should be able to get by with the tools in the mtp-tools package.

For what it is worth, and if you are looking for an inexpensive mp3 player that just works in Linux check out the M620 from Ivo Sound. I got it at Fry's here locally (Campbell CA) and for $40 (well that's $10 off) it's a very versatile mp3 player that plays AMV format video as well, and just mounts as a drive under Linux so I can just use drag drop to transfer files over. It's also 4GB. For $40, it's not a bad deal, compared to what just 1gb mp3 players were a scant few years ago. A few drawbacks - the screen is kind of smallish for video, but the files are still watchable on the screen, and amv video can be transcoded from avi's with ffmpeg - i've done it a few times. I'm not sure if the player is at fault, but folders (music albums) when transferred over to the device, the songs are usually out of order. Sometimes that's not a big deal, and other times it is (like trying to listen to the Who's Tommy in shuffle play mode - that's just not right! :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

If your mp3 player can just show up as a device in your browser (that is if you can mount the device as like a hard drive) then you just use common cmmands to copy the mp3s over, or drag and drop them from panels using your favorite file browser. If the device cannot be mounted, then you probably can use a package called mtp-tools in debian. Just install it, and it'll give you some utilities to use to transfer files over that interface. It's similar to ptp protocol or whatever cameras use that don't offer mounting into the file system. Dennis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I didn't care for the interface, I couldn't access my music from other computers, continuous problems with iTunes, and the big one was that 90% of my music is in FLAC or OGG formats. Rockbox breathed in new life to the iPod and made it so very usable for me. I love Rockbox. Now after 2 years my iPod is slowly dying and I am researching and seriously considering the Cowon A3. I don't know if it is something you would be interested in, but it does support OGG. :-) Should, for whatever reason, I decide not to go with the A3 I can guarantee that my next music player will be something off of the following list here for the sole purpose of having Rockbox: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/TargetStatus#Current_status_o f_supported_targ Just my opinions.

A review of an iRiver T30 noted that initially it worked only with XP but a download from the manufacturer could convert it to a more universal machine. A Goggle search turned up more players which can play Ogg files but they all seem to require Windoze and WMP (I don't even know what WMP is). Is the iRiver T30 the best choice?

Thomas H. George wrote: Question: Is there an MP3 player that plays Ogg files right out of the box? I'm considering converting to Ogg the audio tapes I play on a clunky cassette player during workouts. A review of an iRiver T30 noted that initially it worked only with XP but a download from the manufacturer could convert it to a more universal machine. A Goggle search turned up more players which can play Ogg files but they all seem to require Windoze and WMP (I don't even know what WMP is). Is the iRiver T30 the best choice? It looks pretty clunky though perhaps not as bad as my old cassette player. Tom This is not the best forum for this, you should be Googling. Given that: Several players could, but Microsoft and Apple have pretty much managed to kill those off. There is an open source/free software firmware available for a variety of players that loves ogg vorbis, Rockbox. http://www.rockbox.org/ It has been ported to some iPods, and some iRivers, and Sansa e200s and other players. You might look for a player that is supported by it. It has a lot of other cool features, and there is active development, including ports to new targets. It is compiled on Linux with gcc, so conceivably, any player with CPU supported by gcc could be ported, given that a volunteer gets the full specs of the player and tkes an interest. ARMs and coldfire are the two most common embedded CPU architectures used in players. The best thing you can do if you have a favorite player you want to run Rockbox is send a player or two to a Rockbox dev, along with the complete specs of the player. More than you wanted or needed to know, but Rockbox is IMO probably your best bet for ogg support. Mark Allums -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

It's decidedly better than an old cassette player. :) I have one of these players - acquired it about 2 years ago at Sears 1/2 price. It does work with linux. You probably want the package mtp-tools as the player uses the MPT transport library. Inside that package are command line tools to do things like send files to the player and so forth, and you can use Amarok once it is setup, it'll use those commands as a backend. It will play oggs out of the box. No special problems with this player except after 2 years of use the solenoids get dirty which causes odd skips, loops cycling through the browser. I can lock the player so that it doesn't do that, though. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have an iAudio U3 by Cowon. AFAIK all the players in the iAudio line support Ogg (and some other free formats like Flac); my only complaint about this one is that after only a year and a few months it's starting to break: the headphone jack has been getting flaky (unless I continually shove the connector in I only get one sound channel) and just recently I've been seeing signs that the USB jack might be starting to go (which means I won't be able to load new podcasts and, since it charges over USB, could turn it into a doorstop). I don't know if this is typical of Cowon players or if I just have a bad one. When I decide to replace this I think I'll try something from iRiver (a different company) -- they have a long history of supporting open formats. You can also get a player from another company and install Rockbox, but I would rather buy from a company that supports me up-front when I have the choice.

sort files by name and maintain sort order when copying to mp3 player
After two hours of searching with Google and Yahoo, I have not found a good approach to the problem of maintaining proper file order when copying mp3 files from an ext3 directory to a flash-based mp3 player. Contrary to the instruction manual, the player (a Creative MUVO) plays files in the order in which they are written to flash memory, so if I have an audio book with a hundred chapters on an ext3 drive and then copy the book to the mp3 player, the chapters do not necessarily play in proper sequence. The player is inexpensive, and does not support playlists. In searching, I discovered that others also have this problem, but there appears to be no standard Linux utility to solve the problem. But perhaps someone has written such a utility written in Perl? In the Debian archives is a utility named fatsort which addresses this problem, but it necessitates mounting a FAT partition.

Problema com sistema de arquivos de mp3 player
Olá Debianos, Estou com um problema no sistema de arquivos de um aparelho reprodutor de mp3 Foston FS-68. É um desses com telinha, que reproduz vídeo, grava voz, etc. Estou quase certo de que o problema é com o aparelho, mas achei que valia a pena perguntar se alguém já passou pela mesma situação antes de acionar a garantia. Uns dias depois de comprado, ele começou a não executar nenhum arquivo. Dava uma mensagem de erro genérica como File Error. Eu formatei a memória do dispositivo, e desde então só consigo montá-lo como read only, ou seja, não consigo adicionar arquivos ao aparelho. O aparelho funciona para ouvir rádio, mas não consigo acrescentar mp3. Fiz a experiência de clonar um outro aparelho igual, e usei o dd para copiar uma imagem de um para outro. O aparelho defeituoso passou a executar as músicas, mas mesmo assim continuou com o sistema de arquivos somente leitura. Dei uma olhada na manpage do mkfs.vfat, mas não achei uma opção que me ajudasse. Formatei com FAT12, FAT16 e FAT32, ext3 e nada. Não consigo montar o dipositivo com permissão de escrita (nem para o root) seja montando manualmente ou deixando o dbus/hal montar no desktop. Uso o dosfstools versão 2.11-2.2 e e2fsprogs versão 1.39+1.40-WIP-2007.04.07+dfsg-2 no Debian SiD.

Re: Recommend inexpensive MP3 player?
I'm pretty happy with my Samsung YP-T7, which I got from overstock.com a while back. It has a voice recorder and an FM radio, both of which I use regularly, along with 512MB RAM which is plenty for my casual music use. The interface is OK, a little clunky but I can get used to it (and have). It plays MP3 and OGG natively. The USB interface is plain usb-storage so there are no hassles with moving files.

It's a gig, with decent battery life, very small, but still usable. It's not as easy as expected to sync it with linux. It uses a microsoft protocol. There is a way to flash the bios in the device to make it look just like a USB mass storage device, play ogg files, etc. But that flashing process requires Windows. I don't have windows. But the device does play ogg files out of the box. Oddly enough, if I plug it in, konqueror upens it up and I can see the files. I just can't write to the device (drop files on the folder representing the USB device). So, the preferred method (at least for me), involving amarok and connecting right to the media player (absent some Ruby scripts?) is not possible. The workaround is to use front-ends from libmtp (somewhere on sourceforge SVN) and use commands like 'mtp-connect --sendfile from the command line.

Re: Recommend inexpensive MP3 player?
Try the Sandisk Sansa e200's they run from 1 to 8gb so they might hit your price point somewhere along the way, don't use alkalines, but there is a user replacable li-ion battery. Also, rockbox.org just realeased their firmware replacement in march for the e200 line. I've only had mine for a couple of months but no issues so far.
