As I may have mentioned before, I’m apparently a Brown alumni.. So this is the kinda crap I get in my inbox. Is it spam if they think you’re someone else? I also apparently work in Germany as a lab researcher and volunteer for the fire dept. in North Carolina. I know.. I’m very busy. ———- Forwarded message ———- From: Alpert Medical School Events Date: Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 11:43 AM Subject: INVITATION | The Eleventh Annual Barnes Lectureship To: [image: BarnesLecture_e-flyer FINAL.jpg]

Converting from iTunes to Banshee

January 22, 2010 cpuangel Leave a comment

itunes is great, don’t get me wrong, but I use linux at home 99.99% of the time. Lately all I boot into windows for on my main rig is to sync my ipod with itunes. I already have the songs rated and smart playlists and straight playlists setup, it seems I’m married to itunes. I really like Banshee and have my whole library in there as well, just no ratings or playlists. I know I can sync my ipod with Banshee but without all the other stuff, it’s pointless.

I knew someone must have had the same dilemma I did when it came to switching, so I did a google search and came across this wonderful post By Andrew Sterling Hanenkamp Converting from iTunes to Banshee – Contentment.

I’m running the perl script right now to convert my itunes library to Banshee, then I’ll swiftly recreate my smart playlists, and be on my way.

EDIT:

Looks like I jumped the shark, New in Banshee 1.5.2 itunes Import.
