Thanks for the replies (and for the wonderful software kovidgoyal). I hope I can trouble everyone with a few follow up questions.
Am I correct that libprs500 and the Connect software cannot be used together? I seem to remember reading about a driver conflict somewhere. So if I want to use libprs500 GUI to transfer files, I then have to uninstall Connect? If I edit some metadata with libprs500, and then transfer the files to the reader using libprs500, will the files on the reader, if they are later added to the Connect library reflect the altered metadata?
Finally, are there any helpful hints or instructions available (beyond the command line -help option) available for editing metadata using the command line? I am afraid I am a bit of a novice when it comes to command line tools. (although I did just finish my first html2lrf conversion
).
