PythoPhotoPod Description

Synchronize photos and photo albums with your iPod PythoPhotoPod is a Python-based application that will help you synchronize photos and photo albums with your "iPod with a color display" (the iPod formerly known as "iPod Photo"), "iPod Nano" or "iPod Video". Here are some key features of "PythoPhotoPod": Create Photo Albums: · Each photo album contains images located in a directory on your local disk. PythoPhotoPod automatically synchronizes the photo album with the directory contents. Adding, changing or removing photos in your local directory will be recognized by PythoPhotoPod the next time you update your iPod. · Create new photo albums simply by dropping a file system folder on PythoPhotoPod's album list. Manage Photo Albums: · Change the order of the photo albums as they are shown in the iPod's photo album list. Just drag the album in the album list to change their order. Use "up" and "down" buttons alternatively. Configure Photo Albums: · Configure the name of each album as displayed on your pod. · Set directory location of each photo album on your local machine. · Optionally photos within the subdirectories of the given album location can be included. · A list of file masks can be configured to restrict the album to images of certain type (e.g. "*.jpg:*.gif:*.png"). · A list of exclude masks can be given to identify images which shall not be part of the album (e.g. "thumb*.jpg:*_thumb.gif"). Image Options: · Zoom option: PythoPhotoPod resizes images to fit your iPod display. Normally images are shrunk to fit the entire image in the iPod's display. This, however, may result in black stripes above/below your image, unless your image exactly matches the aspect ratio of the iPod display. When the zoom option is enabled PythoPhotoPod removes black stripes by zooming-in the image. As a result the image covers the entire iPod display, but image areas at the left and right border may be cut off. · Rotate option: Images in upright format (image height is larger than width) will result in large black stripes at the left and right edge of the iPod display. With the rotate option enabled, PythoPhotoPod rotates such images by 90 degrees. To view such images on your iPod - just turn your iPod by 90 degrees - there you go! This works beautifully with entire albums of such images. Of course, this option only affects images displayed on your iPod directly. It has no effect on the iPod's TV image (Rotating an entire TV set is widely seen as rather uncomfortable... ;-) ). iPod Preview: · When you select an image in an album, PythoPhotoPod automatically displays an image preview. This preview reflects size and shape of the image as it will be displayed on your iPod. Supported image formats: · PythoPhotoPod supports all standard image formats (basically all formats supported by GTK+). This includes bmp, jpeg, gif, png, xpm and many others. Specialized “raw” image formats of some digital camera types are not supported though. You'll need to convert such images to a standard format first. Supported languages: · Currently PythoPhotoPod only supports English language. A future version may introduce multi-lingual support. If you want to translate PythoPhotoPod to your favorite language, see below for "Help wanted". Requirements: · Python 2.3 or later · PyGTK What's New in This Release: · Added lots of eye candy (animations). · Added various drag&drop features. · Fixed support for iPod Nano.
