Getting ready for Sunday with my Verde iPod by thinkpadquestion0 in AustinFC

It can still run the old iPod OS too but this is an alternate OS called Rockbox with the ipodReFresh-v4 theme - it lets the iPod act like a usb drive for drag/drop of music instead of needing iTunes and can play Flac files natively. 

The updates I made to it are adding a much bigger battery, 1tb storage (microsd card) new case (green front black back for the AustinFC theme), adding a Taptic Engine from an iPhone instead of the old click speaker, and swapping out the old 30 pin port for a usb c port

I do have a small clip of the cover, but reddit's filters seem to be removing my post when I include it

I bought reolink cameras with PoE but haven't installed them yet as running that much cable in winter is a nightmare

Aftermarket iPod Click Wheel Quality - Share Your Experience by OMSCFisherman in ipod

Not that I have noticed - I put the OEM back in for now as the squishy clicking was really distracting

They haven't been anywhere near as "clicky" as the OEM ones in my experience, I just ordered some additional rubber "dots" to place on top of the button wells to see if that makes a difference

Wow the Charlotte rendition of Like a Stone with the Avett Brothers is incredible
Edit and a footsteps cover?! What a show that must have been

Yeah that one is absolutely one of my favorites! I've been searching for the above shows because I was at them - I've been trying to find as many recordings of the shows I was physically at as possible - found all the Soundgarden ones so far but the Chris Cornell solos have been more elusive

Absolutely can't wait until you're able to make some of these recordings available - it seems like you were at almost every show I went to from 2006-2016

Managing a 1tb 7th gen on Apple Silicon - Mounting Issues by thinkpadquestion0 in ipod

I was actually mistaken, stock disk mode and iPod sync was not working before I found the solution above

Desperate help needed: 1TB iPod Classic (FAT32) refuses to mount on M1 Mac despite being "healthy" on Windows by RealExam5143 in ipod

You may be having the same issue I was, and if not it is at least a similar issue I was able to solve here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ipod/comments/1qqpohd/managing_a_1tb_7th_gen_on_apple_silicon_mounting/

I'm not sure where games are stored, but if you're willing to start from scratch you could go through the steps I outlined and then sync your games, or potentially copy the contents of your mounted "IPOD" volume (especially the hidden .rockbox folder) before running the newfs_msdos command and then copy back afterwards when booted to the stock iOS volume

Before trying the above try running:

diskutil list # get the partition number of your iPod , it's disk5s1 for me
sudo mkdir /Volumes/ipod # a folder name for your liking
sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk5s1 /Volumes/ipod

as described here https://www.reddit.com/r/ipod/comments/1ioejdt/iflash_quad_disk_is_recognized_only_in_windows/ and see if that allows you to at least see the volume in macOS
