Exporting photos to your iPod

When I first started playing with my iPod, i was sorely disappointed that there was no good tool to upload my photos to the iPod. Sure, there is GPixPod, but surely this is one of the worst peices of software ever. Never worked for me at all.

Yesterday I decided to have another look around, and discovered that libgpod have implemented some access to the iPod photo database. I thought this was exciting, so I started to play around with it.

I played around with it so much, that I developed a KIPI plugin to upload images to my iPod. Works quite nicely, but currently there is no UI to manage images based on the iPod. User interface designs and ideas are most welcome and I would love to hear from you.

Here is a screenshot of the iPod export plugin in action:

I hope that this tool is useful for some of you out there! Beware that it is currently not possible to remove images/albums from the ipod (or do any other ipod located manipulation).

I also hope to be able to make this into a standalone application soon, it shouldn’t take too much work.
