[seemingly abandonware] iPod manager
Hello everyone, I have a problem which i couldn't manage to solve by my own. I'm sorry if this has been posted and answered already. I have a 5.5G iPod with firmware version 1.3 and I'm using Windows XP SP3. Most of my audio library is in FLAC, and i transfer them to my iPod as ALAC (encoding with foobar using this method). I tried to automate the process using the same encoder in the method listed above (while utilizing the "Convert audio tracks in unsupported formats" option and listing the same parameters as the guide in fb2k.net suggests) to have my FLAC files automatically converted to ALAC when i tell foobar to send them to my iPod. Needless to say, the parameters suggested at fb2k.net (-i – -acodec alac %d) didn't work both with foobar's own converter and with foo_dop's converter. foobar's error log after trying to convert:CLI encoder: C:\WINDOWS\system32\ffmpeg.exe Destination file: D:\Full Length\Lossless\Accept - Restless And Wild - 1982\01. Fast As A Shark.m4a Encoder stream format: 44100Hz / 2ch / 16bps Command line: "C:\WINDOWS\system32\ffmpeg.exe" -i – -acodec alac "01. Fast As A Shark.m4a" Working folder: D:\Full Length\Lossless\Accept - Restless And Wild - 1982\ Could not determine file attributes for "D:\Full Length\Lossless\Accept - Restless And Wild - 1982\01.

Fast As A Shark.m4a Total encoding time: 0:03.047, 0.13x realtime trying to convert via foo_dop when sending to iPod yielded this result: "Failed to add file to iPod: Conversion failed - Unexpected process exit code 00000001h". However, the parameters suggested in the comment section at fb2k.net (-i %s -acodec alac %d), worked with foobar's converter, but when trying to use the same parameters through foo_dop's automatic converting option when sending to iPod, i got the same result listed above. I would be very happy if you could help me with this issue, i think others would also benefit well from this.
