Description Benjamin Fritzsche 2005-04-04 09:40:31 UTC
Version:           1.2.3 (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Would be cool to have integration in the mediadevice browser for Creative Nomad jukeboxes.

could probably be done using libnjb (http://sf.net/projects/libnjb) and the njb kio slave (http://sf.net/projects/kionjb).

Both libnjb and kionjb work here, but integration with amarok would be nice and should be doable, although i´m not a programmer.

Thanks for your spare time !!

I agree, you might even want to take a look at gnomad2's source code, it may help.

I hope you guys can do it, that would be cool. thanks.

There is a new library, libmtp, being developed to support MTP devices. These include the more-recently-purchased Creative Zen MP3 players. Older Zens can be upgraded to work with MTP. (I would not recommend that just now as the firmware patch is irreversible! I'm leaving my Zen Touch well alone until libmtp is closer to completion!) Although libmtp is in relatively early stages of development, perhaps amarok could look to support it - the benefit would be much wider than just Creative MP3 players.

I have developed a new MediaDevice class to this lib.

My code is based/inspired by kionjb but it not use it.

I post a .tar.bz2 a few days, perhaps tomorrow. The current status is:

- Support to upload, download, delete tracks at device
- Show de tracks of the device (order by artist/album)

Regards.

NjbMediaDevice : Class to manipulate NJB devices

Hello,

To compile it, decompress under mediadevice dir at source amarok dir. Modify
the Makefile.am of mediadevice dir to compile the new directory too.

You need have installed the libnjb-devel package.

Test it.

Regards.

Comment 9 Jeff Mitchell 2006-05-15 16:54:33 UTC
Can anyone comment as to whether or not this code also works for MTP devices?
Comment 10 Seb Ruiz 2006-05-16 14:28:53 UTC
This is clearly closed now!

Jeff - most unlikely it works with MTP.
Comment 11 Bill King 2006-07-28 02:32:14 UTC
MTP needs <a href="http://libmtp.sourceforge.net/">libmtp</a>. libnjb explicitly states that they don't support mtp devices.
