Ipod Classic + Banshee

Chronon:
I am not very clear on what you're talking about.  Rockbox give you the option to initialize or update its database.  This database is built by scanning the metadata of files on your player.  There isn't a metadata editor in Rockbox so you need to edit the metadata using a PC application.

You can certainly create playlists within Rockbox as well as use externally generated playlists.  You can also use the playlist viewer to delete or move tracks in a given playlist.  There is a text editor, so if you really wanted to you could edit the text within an M3U playlist. 

Have you read the manual?  Information about the database and playlist handling can be found there.

Voronwe:
Yeah but I assume that there is a database file, apparently Banshee and Rhythmbox are capable of read that but not to edit that... did you understand what I mean now? ;) I think that's just a Banshee's problem.

Assuming you mean the rockbox database, other programs outside of rockbox are not able to access it.  That might happen someday, but for now we don't provide a way to do that.

I understand that you're really confused about banshee or rockbox or USB disks, but I'm not entirely sure which.  Let me just point out that if you've got rockbox mounted as a USB drive, its literally identical to every other USB hard drive out there.  You could replace rockbox with a USB thumb drive and no software on your computer would know the difference.  Hell, even our own installer will install the rockbox system files to a USB thumb drive if you tell it to because it can't actually tell if a drive has rockbox on it or is just another hard drive. 

With that in mind, would I be correct in thinking that you're really just asking how to do something in Banshee that has nothing to do with rockbox?

Amela:
You can use the playlist browser delete or move in a given playlist track. You can also look at the manual, read the inside of the related content! :P :P :P

Maybe it's my angrish, but it's exactly what I tried to ask before, I thought that banshee or rhythmbox would be able to edit the rockbox database file (Banshee recognize my iPod as a "Rockbox device"), but they don't (now I know :P ) because there's no program outside of rockbox that's able to access the database. Thank you very much for your replies. ;)
