Empeg synchronization tool for GNU/Linux Version 2.3, (C) Mark Lord, 17-Apr-2002 Usage: empsync [options] [sync] Where: audit == audit only (default) upload == audit + upload new/modified tracks upload=n == audit + upload only "n" (or fewer) tracks info == audit + update existing track info sort == audit + force song order by tracknr dsort == audit + sort playlists alphabetically nodel == do not delete any tunes from the player sync == audit + commit changes verbose == show all interactions with 'emptool' /dev/xxxx == use empeg connected to this device nn.nn.nn.nn == use empeg connected to this IP address serial == use empeg connected to /dev/ttyS0 usb == use empeg connected to /dev/ttyUSB0 This command is used to mirror the /mp3/all directory from the host filesystem onto the /all playlist (directory) on the Empeg car player. No other playlists on the Empeg are affected by ANY of the operations performed herein. Music files within the host /mp3 filesystem should be organized/named as: /mp3/all/// - .mp3 or /mp3/all///..mp3 All characters except '/', '"', '{', '}' are valid in pathnames. Underscores are converted to spaces when uploading playlists and files. To identify the artist for an individual song as being different from the "group" of the album, the artist name may be embedded within braces: /mp3/all///.{artist}.mp3 or /mp3/all///.{artist}.mp3 Because the TAG fields within the .mp3 files are often abbreviated (and 'emptool-1.0' doesn't support ID3v2 completely), all music uploaded is named using the Linux filesystem name info (above) rather than the TAGs. The "info" option can be used to rename existing music in the same way. No changes are made on the Empeg itself unless "sync" is specified. A trial run, without "sync", is recommended for the first few runs. Requires an executable copy of '' somewhere in the user's PATH.
