Script Device.StartSynch Not working

Post by JohnPaulJones »

Hi All,

I have the following code which should in theory send the new song to my ipod. The new SongList is created and works correctly, and the synchronisation kicks off - both the bottom bar in Media Monkey and the ipod show that a file (the correct one) is being synchronised.

The sync never finnishes trying to copy the file over - is there something I am missing in the creation of the new song, or am I missing something out on the StartSynch call? The code runs without error but no updated songs?! If I drag and drop the same song using media monkeys interface there is not a problem. If I create the song from a song already on the ipod the synch works correcly, so it looks to me that the issue is in copying the actual file to the ipod?

Song Creation is:

Code: Select all

SongsDB.SDBApplicationClass SDB = new SongsDB.SDBApplicationClass();
                SDB.ShutdownAfterDisconnect = true;

SongsDB.SDBSongIterator songs = (SongsDB.SDBSongIterator)SDB.Database.QuerySongs("ID=4");
                newSongList = SDB.NewSongList;                
                
                while (!songs.EOF)
                {
                    SongsDB.SDBSongData song = songs.Item;
                    newSongList.Add(song);
                    
                    songs.Next();
                }

SDB.Device.StartSynch(deviceHandle, newSongList);

Does anyone have any ideas?

Sorry, I don't, but I am interested in this method. I'm wondering if there's a way to use it to trigger a full automatic sync? I'm also wondering what the "device handle" is - is it the DeviceInst?

I didn't get anything to work regarding device classes from a script. :(
I'd be interested as well if I don't have to write a DLL. (Even though my sync back scripts may reach the end of their life cycle as MMA is growing up).
