  • Heh, I think I was unclear in my post. The iTunes thing was separate. What I mean to say is, I don't think the ** feature works in Windows (or at least my version of it). I've actually been working on a really cool 100% javascript app that interfaces with the shuffle (windows only, sorry :( ). I'll let you know when that's in a fully functional beta, in case you have one or two PC users. Haha.

    A Look Inside the iPod Shuffle
  • Heh, I just commented on that last article, but here's where the playlists are, in case anyone wanted to tinker (and didn't already know): H:iPod_ControliTunes once you get in there, the files aren't hidden. This is for a PC, btw.

    How to Autofill your iPod Shuffle from your iPod Or iPod Mini
  • Hrm... for some reason, the asterisks don't work on my comp (I'm running WinXP). Also, I didn't mention before, but I found that the directory iPod_ControliTunes has all of the playlists. I put the little bit of info that I know at ipod.willschupp.com - I'm not sure if it's useful at all. I'm really surprised more shuffle-related stuff hasn't popped up yet.

    A Look Inside the iPod Shuffle
  • And as another addon, the following can simply be typed into windows explorer to access the files: H:iPod_ControlMusicF00 Replace F00 w/ F01 and F02 to get more files (it appears that the shuffle doesn't use F03 & up). As far as updating the playlists, I think there is at least one iPod 3rd party program that is open source, maybe it would provide the insight into that format for you?

    A Look Inside the iPod Shuffle
  • Just as an addon to the above, I've figured out how to get into the iPod Control in DOS: cd /d h:iPod_Control (This assumes that your computer assigns H: to the iPod, which you can check easily when it's plugged in) I can't figure out how to copy the contents to the desktop. I think this would be a neat little script to have around.

  • I'm just curious if you know the PC (DOS) equivalent to those command lines? If not, no big deal, but it would be cool to know. Thanks!
