I completely removed Winamp and installed v5.22,
followed by mlipod 1.33alpha9. Sending playlists to
my iPod now works fine, thank you :)
I did just try the 'Sync all ML smart views to smart
playlists' setting, which doesn't seem to work
whether I use it from the context menu or doing a full
sync. I'm not fussed over that, but just
reporting it.
I also thought I'd tell you that, even using the above
versions of Winamp and mlipod, Winamp still
pretty much decimates the playlists on my friends
iPod. On their own computer, they solely use
iTunes, and as I said previously, have a range of
normal and smart playlists made with iTunes.
I plugged their iPod into my computer and opened
iTunes and all was fine. I closed iTunes and opened
Winamp, and it showed one playlist, which was an
iTunes smart playlist but appeared as a normal
playlist in Winamp (and was also empty, as the iTunes
smart playlists are when viewed in Winamp).
Before opening Winamp, I had made a backup of the
folder X:\iPod_Control\iTunes and everything
inside it. I closed Winamp after seeing that it had
pretty much wiped the playlists off the iPod,
and then copied back over the files that I had backed
up. If I remember correctly, the only files
that had really changed were iTunesDB, iTunesDB.old,
iTunesSD, and iTunesPrefs. I know you said
smart playlists between iTunes and Winamp will never
be compatible, but I'm wondering why it appears
that with my friends iPod, mlipod is changing or
corrupting the database of playlists and/or songs.
However, I understand that it may not be mlipod alone
that is causing this. It could be that ml_ipod
cannot properly read data from an iPod that has only
been used with iTunes previously; it could only
be an issue with video iPods; it could just be
incompatibility that cannot be fixed without Apple
also making some changes (which is most unlikely!).
Anyway, thanks for your continued work on such a
useful plugin.
Cheers,
Jeremy
