MNPlight: MoveNPlay Light Client for iPhone

Installation

Add

http://iphone.lefessant.net/iphone

to the sources of your iPhone installer (or just click on it from the iPhone !).

Launch the installer, it should read the sources and display two new categories: MNPlight and MNPgoodies. The first one is for the program, the second one is for goodies that will work with MNPlight.

You can also access PXL files directly from HERE. Stable versions end with N.MM, while development versions end with N.MM.PP

iPod Touch users

iPod touch users should be careful while using MNPlight. Indeed, the iPod Touch is more regarding than the iPhone on the origin of the iPod music database. In particular, it verifies a checksum in the file using the iPod Firewire GUID (a material identifier associated with your USB connection).

MNPlight requires iPod Touch users to enter this Firewire GUID before any modification of the music database. It is a 16-digits code, that should be entered in MNPlight Preferences, prefixed by 0x.

Depending on your computer, you can obtain this identifier by:

Linux users: use (thanks to Zoltan Kuscsik)
```
sudo lsusb -v -d 05ac: | grep iSerial | awk '{ printf("0x%s\n",substr($3,1,16))}'
```
in a terminal. It should directly output your FireWireGUID as you should enter it in MNPlight preferences.
Windows users: go to the Device Manager, under USB devices, find your iPhone device and use the "More Details" button in the Properties. You should obtain something like:
USB\VID_05AC&PID_1290\48C96E419D08640ABB35C6936A53345A78BB338
Your FireWireGUID are the first 16 characters after the second backslash (\) : 0x48C96E419D08640A
MacOSX users (thanks to Niko Grund): You have to plug in your ipod touch, open the terminal and type:
```
ioreg -lx
```
after the terminal finishes listing stuff (I don't know exactly what it does, I think it lists every connection and device which act with the computer...), press "cmd+f" and type
```
IOFireWireLocalNode
```
a few lines under this entry, you will see:
```
"GUID" = 0x.........
```

In MNPlight, don't forget the 0x before the Firewire GUID in the preferences !
