Remove duplicate tracks from an iPod
Tuesday, November 21st, 2006I was playing around with an ipod plugin for Quod Libet and accidently copied many track many times to my iPod, so I wound up with about 3 copies of every Lordi song, for example.
Based on the I wrote a quick script using libgpod and it’s python bindings to remove all the duplicate tracks from my ipod. Just mount the iPod, change the “mount_point” line to specify where the ipod is mounted, and run the programme. It’ll print out a line for every dupe it finds.
I was suprised at how easy it was to use libgpod. This programme only took 40 lines. gpod is nice. ![]()
