hello you together,

does anyone know a way to automatically download cover art from the net (
amazon.com...) and use it with gtkpod, so that I can upload it to my iPod?
thanks from M=FCnster, Germany,

Not exactly what you're asking for, but libgpod comes with a python
script called covertart_fetch.py (in libgpod/bindings/python/examples)
which will attempt to automatically fetch cover art for songs in your
ipod database from amazon (you need an amazon web services key first
though).

Hope that helps,

Christophe

Thanks for your answers.

1. The amarok solution: How can I do this? I mean, how can I write them to
my ipod database?

2. The python script solution: when I run "python coverart_fetch.py", i get=

coverart_fetch.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

If you have the same music on your pc:
 - make sure the music is in your collection
 - open the cover manager
 - click "retrieve covers"
 - connect the ipod and go to the ipod browser
 - right click on any item and select "Refresh Album Covers".

This will do it for all albums on the ipod.

If you don't have music on the pc, then set the collection directory
to be the ipod mount, eg /media/IPOD, and follow the same steps as
above.

Can't help with the python problem though.

Seb

ps - sorry for polluting the gtkpod list with amarok stuff :)

You need to have the python bindings installed so that they can be
imported properly (or you need to adjust the coverart_fetch.py script
to add the build dir to the python path prior to calling import).

To followup Todd's comments.

In order to build the Python bindings you must have SWIG (Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator [www.swig.org]) installed. Its available as a package for most Linux distros.

Also be sure that the location where the bindings are installed are properly setup. You can add it to PYTHONPATH environment variable.

There are a few, 2 that haven't been mentioned yet:

    Album Cover Art Downloader
    http://kempele.fi/~skyostil/projects/albumart/

    Cowbell
    http://more-cowbell.org/index.php/Main_Page

Cowbell does more than just grab cover art, but I think you can tell
it not to update your tags.  I've used albumart more myself.

Thanks for your answer.
Both programs can download album covers to my local computer. But how can I
make them usable on my ipod?

Add them with gtkpod and set the add coverart template to match the
format used by whichever program you're using to download the
coverart.  (I've used albumart and configured it to name the
downloaded artwork folder.jpg.)

Then update the tracks in gtkpod.  It will find the coverart and add
it to your ipod.
