Okay, I have libgpod0 version 0.3.2-1.1ubuntu1 installed. I do not have libgpod-dev installed. python-gpod installed is version 0.3.2-1.1ubuntu1 as well. gpodder is 0.9.1-1 Really don't know what top or htop is. Using latest ubuntu distro. It is a slower machine I am running on. My internet is not super snappy either. Any way I can limit the concurrent downloads to say three or four? Thanks again for the help. This is the first time I have troubleshot something in a community fashion. It is very cool. Liking Linux more and more. There does look like some interesting stuff below. I deleted one repetitive section Gpodder actually crashed at the end of the sync. This is what it was saying: Thanks, Darren (tagupdate) eyed3 not found -- tag update disabled (ipodsync) Found pymad (ipodsync) Found PyID3, will try to extract cover art from mp3 metadata (ipodsync) mplayer not found - length of video files will be guessed (PlaybackHistory) Creating new history list.
