MediaMonkey Portable/Audio Device Plug-ins

Device plug-ins allow MediaMonkey to synchronize with audio devices such as the iPod and other MP3 players. In addition to synchronizing tracks, some of the plug-ins synchronize related properties such as Album Art, ratings, play history, along with playlists. Listed below are plug-ins currently included with MediaMonkey, and the devices supported by them. For more information, see the Device Synchronization Forum.




Plug-in : iPod
Description : This plug-in is used for the iPod, iPod Shuffle, iPod mini, iPod Nano, iPod Video, including 5th generation iPods. It synchs MP3 files and related properties including Album Art, ratings, volume leveling information (known as 'Soundcheck' on the iPod), play history, as well as Playlists. It does not support aac files, though auto-conversion can convert such files if a suitable input plugin has been installed. If you want the power of MediaMonkey with the ease of use of an iPod, your wait is over.

Plug-in : WMDM
Description : This plug-in is suitable for almost any device but the iPod, but is designed especially for 'MTP' devices that are labelled 'Plays for Sure'. It synchronizes whatever audio formats are supported by the device along with related properties including Album Art, ratings, play history, and Playlists (assuming they are supported by the device). Note that this plug-in does not support Synchronization of WMA files protected by DRM 10. Devices known to be compatible include most recent iRiver, Creative Labs, Sony, Sandisk, and other players.

Plug-in : iRiver H120, H320, H340
Description : This plugin allows MediaMonkey to work with iRiver hard-drive-based jukeboxes capable of storing between 20 and 40 GB. The devices are generally highly rated, and although usability might be considered slightly below that of an iPod, they support additional formats (e.g. OGG) that the iPod doesn't. The integration between MediaMonkey and these devices is seamless and whenever tracks are synchronized to the device, the device database is also updated.

Plug-in : Generic Portable/Audio Device
Description : MediaMonkey's generic device plugin works with almost any USB Mass Storage Device (a device that appears as a drive letter in Windows explorer) to synchronize with MediaMonkey. All that is needed is to configure the device's drive letter.

For those looking for a small flash-based player, the Sandisk players are about as small as a USB key, but include a navigable interface (unlike some other very small form factor products). If you're looking for something a little more exotic, the SwiMP3 bone conduction underwater MP3 Player offers an amazing underwater listening experience!
