Use basic HTML files to navigate notes on the iPod
Authored by: cybergoober on Jun 04, '03 09:59:40AM

I've been using iLyric to download lyrics and sync them to my new iPod. I found the ipodnotereader.pdf file on the Apple Developer site and added links to songs in the .html files that iLyric generates:

<A HREF="song=song_title">Link to song_title</A>

That way when I'm viewing a lyric I can hit the Select button in the middle of the scroll pad and iPod starts playing the song of the lyric I'm viewing.

Note that if there is more than one song with the same title you will need to use a filter, as the Note Reader will not let you select which file to play. For instance, if you had "One" by Metallica and also "One" by Creed you would have to use a link like this:

<A HREF="ipod:music?artist=Metallica&song=One">Link to One</A>

This is probably my favorite new feature on the new iPods.
