NAME

       mktunes - convert GNUtunesDB's XML into iTunesDB format

SYNOPSIS

       mktunes [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       Convert GNUtunesDB.xml into iTunesDB format

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
              output version information and exit

       -m, --mount=DIRECTORY
              iPod mountpoint. Default is $IPOD_MOUNTPOINT

       -n, --ipod-name=NAME
              iPod Name (For unlabeled iPods). iTunes displays this name, not the label.

       -v, --volume=VALUE
              Adjust volume +-VALUE% (example: --volume +5)

       -e, --energy
              Save energy (= Disable scrolling title)

       -g, --fwguid=HEXVAL
              Enforce  iPod  serial/firewire-guid.  Late  2007 iPod models (3gen Nano, Classic, Touch) refuse to
              work unless the iTunesDB has been signed with a sha1 hash. This hash  helps  to  detect  corrupted
              databases,  prevents  sharing an iTunesDB between multiple iPods and locks out non-apple software.
              GNUpod is able to create the required hash value if it knows the iPods serial number, this is a 16
              chars  long  hex  value  such  as: '000ba3100310abcf' and should be autodetected on GNU/Linux (via
              /proc/bus/usb/devices) and Solaris (via prtconf -v). Use this switch to  set  the  serial  if  the
              autodetection  somehow fails to find the correct serial number of your iPod.  You can also specify
              the value in your configuration file (gnupodrc) as 'mktunes.fwguid = 000ba3100310abcf'.
