I've had an iPod Touch for quite some time now, but after upgrading to the 2.2 firmware, lost all of my old (corrupted) music. This means one thing: time to put music onto it. Rather than do ffmpeg and such by hand, I decided to write a pair of Python scripts to do it.
The first script is foreach.py, which iterates through each line in a file, interpreting each line as a file:
#!/usr/bin/python

ArgLib2.Mapping.__init__(self, target)
self.default_value = value
def value(self):
return self.default_value
def __init__(self, long = {}, long_synoms = {}, short_synoms = {}):
self.long, self.long_synoms, self.short_synoms = long, long_synoms, short_synoms

I used these two scripts together in the following manner:
python ../foreach.py --xargmode $PLAYLIST python alac.pyNot only does it support FLAC input, but it supports anything that both AtomicParsley and FFMPEG support.
