Portable Devices / Re: libgpod

Well, the problem is that there is two different interfaces. libgpod works with the older devices and the libimobiledevice takes care of talking to the new iOS devices (or so it seems from my readings). If you look at how iTunes progressed, it was originally self contained to talk to the iPods. Then with iOS, they introduced a new service (at least in Windows) for the communication. These two open source libraries seem to work in the same fashion.
I don't know library Steven is currently using, but as he said, it isn't really supported anymore and doesn't seem to work reliably with new iTunes.
