Error on recognizing iPod
Hi,
I'm using MM 2.5.4.969 and an 4th gen iPod Photo.
Since this release (regression error ?) MediaMonkey doesn't seem to recognize the iPod correctly.
When I attach the iPod it creates a new device plugin using d_WMDM.dll for the iPod instead of using its own existing iPod device plugin (d_iPod.dll).
After manually removing the new d_WMDM device plugin, removing the iPod and reinserting the iPod, MediaMonkey creates the incorrect device plugin again.
Debug log is sent.
regards,
charlieMOGUL

Hi Jiri,
I used the last official version before this version, and synchronizing with the iPod always worked perfectly.
After installing the latest beta release it stopped functioning. You still can see the d_iPod.dll device plugin and it still has the correct synchronisation list. I haven't changed anything besides installing the latest beta.
Hope this helps,

It looks like possibly d_WMDM finds iPod faster than its d_iPod plug-in. Could you please try to use http://www.mediamonkey.com/beta/d_WMDM.dll instead of the default one?
Thanks,
Jiri

Picasa + iPod + MediaMonkey != okay ?
Strangely enough, when exiting Google's Picasa, it works again.
So it seems that Picasa ('s Media Detector ?) interrupts some calls.
I don't know whether this behaviour is new for this beta build, or that this is the first time that it occurred.
If you're interested I have a debug log of a successful iPod connection after exiting Picasa.
As always, thanks for your fast answers,

Hi Jiri,
I did NOT use the modified WMDM driver. All I did was stopping Google's Picasa. I use Picasa for transfering my photos from a digital camera to my computer. After stopping Picasa, MediaMonkey recognized the iPod correct again.
This was the first time that Picasa and MediaMonkey had 'troubles' together. I don't know whether this was due to this beta build, or that it was just a coincidence that it occurred after using the beta.
I haven't been able to reproduce the problem with Picasa and MediaMonkey + iPod, so maybe it was just a glitch.

Yesterday I had a similar problem: MediaMonkey recognized my iPod as a "normal" player and wanted to resynch the whole library. Then I re-attached the ipod and it worked again.
It was the first time that this happened. I'll tell you if it happens again.

iPod recognition problem
Hi,
Is a debug log of this possible?

Multiple ipods
I connected my 2 video ipods. The second one connected always ended up creating a new profile using the WMDM dll. Once I disconnected the first ipod the second would work again.
Since this thread was resurrected, I'll chime in as well.
2 iPod issues:
1) Video iPod works correctly, but the 2nd gen shuffle only occasionally is recognized correctly. Most of the time it shows up as a generic usb device
2) iPod album cover library was corrupted on sync, so album art of tracks that were already on the ipod don't show up anymore.
