Podtool project is a Python-based utility for managing tracks between a local music repository and an iPod.

In particular, it implements correct playcount and ratings synchronisation, which is important when using smart playlists. If you've used iTunes and selective smart playlist synchronisation, then you know what this does.

I wrote this tool to scratch an itch, so it does what I need it to do. Please contribute patches, etc and I'll include those in a future release. Perhaps one day this will become a full blown application (console based iTunes?).

Requirements:
Python v2.4
Python eye3D module
libgpod
gtkpod

What's New in This Release:
Dumping from an iPod is much improved, including better playlist copying.
Behavior with gtkpod is now much better; gtkpod filenames won't get clobbered.
