Ok. Hadn't touched this for last 2 weeks for various reasons. However, I have a release.
Only tested on Macbook so far, but wrote it so it should work on Linux/Windows as well, so there should be nothing funny in there.
I realised that I foolishly created this thread with a title implying that it had the app in it. My intention was to put a few blank posts at the top which I would later edit and put the app itself in, but something about the way the forum software works meant that this didn't work. Are you able to rename this thread by any chance, and I can create a new one for the "real" app?
It's late, and I'm tired, so I won't post it now, but happy to post it tomorrow or chuck you a copy over by email or other mechanism. Will write a "user guide" tomorrow for it as well
Current functionality = pretty much everything I was thinking of.
* Should work fine on Windows/Linux/Mac
* Supports multiple devices
* Hopefully supports all models (only been able to test on 3S though)
* Supports multiple "profiles" (i.e. if you share the SD between multiple devices, you can set it up to cover them all)
* Supported "media" types:
- E-Books
- Games (Rom ".bin" and Folder based)
- Music
- Videos
* Allows deletion of media on the device.
* Allows copying media from device to local disk.
* Allows copying media from local disk to device.
* Single file media (mp3, avi, rom .bin, etc.) are copied as is to local disk
* Folder based media (non-rom games, e-books, etc.) are stored as a zip archive on local disk (automatically decompressed and expanded when copying back to media) - just to keep things tidier.
* Metadata (name/icons/etc) are stored locally in a txt and PNG file on the disk.
* Editing of local metadata supported (changing icons/name/etc)
* Editing of metadata on device supported (i.e. changing icons/name/etc for stuff already on the Innotab)
* Icons supported and working for all media types
... Think that about covers it.
Oh, and it will automatically convert any image into an icon, but it does a simple (good quality) rescale to the relevant icon size, so if the original is not square, it will come out stretched! But it's a start
One more point; as there seems to be a large French community around here, I've made it simple to translate, so if anyone fancy's translating to French once it's posted, give me a shout and I'll send the file over for translation!
