Hey guys, is there a way to use both the ipod firmware and the rockbox firmware to both read the same files on the drive? I am not imoressed with the battery life of rockbox, but I do appreciate and love the features is has over the applefirmware.  I also know that itunes "encrypts" files...

Is there a way to transfer the mp3s so that BOTH firmwares will read the SAME FILES (not having to transfer them in itunes, and then then again with rockbox)

Thanks!

The only way is to use itunes to sync your iPod, and use database mode in rockbox. Music MUST be in the itunes DB for the apple OS to see it.

This does NOT WORK with the new 30g Video firmware...
all this did was CORRUPT my itunes library, and now NOTHING
will play in itunes! All movies are GONE... however, if I use rockbox firmware, the files (mp3s) are still there and playable, but are USELESS in itunes....

bluebrother:
the manual has this information ...

What about loading your files with VPOD instead of ITunes?
