7th Gen Classic

<< < (5/8) > >>

Mr. Odd:
I don't have one, just want to know in the event that my current iPod dies and I need a new one. Anyone out there using MC with the latest Classic?

goose2:
The MCiS program discussed here is working for me...a bit more effort but with 160 gigs on the ipod I don't have to re-sync that often.

I've been using a 16Gb Classic through MC for quite some time successfully. The large capacity and ability to hook to my car's head unit without using the mini jack is a winner for me. You can even use the replay gain if you want to. I don't even have itunes on my machine  ;D .

Jim mentioned how JRiver is not committing to keeping up to date with the iPod due to the fact that Apple doesn't play well with others, but so far I'm still good. I do suggest, however, that if you choose to still have iTunes, save the install program for the version that you use so that after Apple updates and causes problems, you can uninstall it and reinstall the older version. You will still need iTunes for firmware updates but hey, if it ain't broke, why update the firmware.

I've been using a 5th Generation iPod video for years. I've never installed iTunes, and MC works beautifully with it. Plug it in, MC picks it up, performs the sync, then ejects it, leaving it charging up via USB. MC also manages a 39Gb mp3 cache for use in sync jobs with no intervention from me whatsoever....

Now, my trusty iPod is dying, albeit slowly, but it iis dying. The battery life is getting ever shorter. I'm having to charge twice a week now, when it used to go between 8 - 10 days.

In the not too distant future, I need a new portable.

I cannot plug anything into my car radio, so, my next player must have the ability to transmit FM, either natively, or by way of something like the iTrip I currently use with my iPod.
It must work as painlessly as my current iPod does with MC.
I would like that it sync play counts and last played data back to MC when connected.

I like their televisions, but have never really been struck by their handhelds. This is interesting though...
Do they sync play counts and last played back to MC when connected?

-marko.

Edit:
That NWZ-X1060 looks pretty nifty...

I don't know, Marko.  Sorry.
