Motivation

Philips ShopBox PSS 110 Player is really nice player to listen to radio and mp3 in the kitchen. Unfortunately you can't easyly copy music files to the device, because the PSS holds song titles in a database, the outdated SQLite Version 2. Philips provides an adapted version of Yahoos MusicMatch Jukebox sofware to manage the songs, but this is for windows only and does not eaven run on windows vista - not talking about linux and apple os.

Alternatively you may want to try the ShoqBoxBuddy a nice product that - other than pss-client - does support playlists. ShoqBoxBuddy does only run on windows.

Features

• Copy music files to the PSS-110 per file dialog and drag and drop
• Remove music files from the PSS-110

Help

Open the Database

Add songs

You may add songs via the file dialog "add". You may also add one or more songs via drag and drop form the filesystem onto the song table of pss-client. Please report possible drag and drop errors to our bug - tracker Bugtracker http://code.google.com/p/pss-client/issues/list. Drag and drop is based on file mime type information that may differ on differnt operation systems.
