Thanks. I realized that I probably had older Apple Mobile Device Support on this system, as I've kept iTunes 9.x which was one of the last, good versions I needed for the older iPod Classic and Nano that I have. Uninstalled, downloaded the latest iTunes (64-bit), Copy-Trans-Driver-Installer (latest version) didn't like that, so did the CTDI automatic install. Upgraded Quicktime manually.
Tried 4.0.7 again, no joy. Deleted all playlists and albums off the iPod in the iPod interface.
Latest development build installed in Portable mode, copied mm.ini and mm.db over from my 4.0.7 installation appdata.
I only synced a couple of podcasts, Marketplace Money, Marketplace, Marketplace Morning report ... in the Podcasts app on the iPod, they are all classified under This American Life (which wasn't synced). There are a few dozen artists' albums showing in the Music app, though I only synced over 2 albums by Robert Rich. Selecting other artist tracks, the player flips through all the tracks supposedly on the device, then returns to browse mode. The music that I actually synced plays normally.
I notice there's no "Rebuild device database" or "Disconnect device" items on the context menu. ?:)
Seems like the database is completely wrong. I'll either have to clear it in iTunes, or reset the device. Pity.
