  <title>Sincronizar</title>    
  
  <p>Banshee supports syncing your music to portable media players and 
  smartphones.  You can add specific music tracks, albums or playlist 
  or allow Banshee to keep your music player in sync with your entire
  library.  After your player is connected to your computer you can also
  play back the songs on your portable player in Banshee.  When syncing
  music in a lossless format, such as FLAC, Banshee will automatically
  transcode your music for you to a lossy format such as Ogg Vorbis or MP3,
  if you have the correct codecs installed.
  </p>

    <title>Compatibilidade de dispositivos</title>
    <p>Banshee supports almost all modern portable music players and
    smartphones with the notable exception of the Apple iPhone, iPad and
    iPod Touch.</p>
  
  <p>When you plug your device in, Banshee will display it in the left menu.
  Pressing the device icon will take you to your device home page in Banshee
  displaying your sync preferences.
  </p>
  
  </section>
  
    <section id="sync-settings">
    <title>Sync Your Music</title>
    <p>You can choose to manage the media on your portable music
    by having Banshee automatically sync it or manage your music and media
    manually.
    </p>
    
    <p>Choose your device from the Banshee menu and then choose how you want
    to sync your media, including:
    </p>
    <list>
      <item><p>Música</p></item>
      <item><p>Audiolibros</p></item>  
      <item><p>Vídeos</p></item>
      <item><p>Podcast</p></item>  
    </list>
    
    <p>From the dropdown menu next to each of the media, choose from:
    </p>
    <list>
      <item><p>Xestionar manualmente</p></item>
      <item><p>Sincronizar toda a fonoteca</p></item>  
    </list>    
    
    <note style="warning">
      <p>If you choose to sync your entire library automatically with your
      portable media player make sure your portable media player has enough
      storage space.  If your library is larger than the space on your
      portable media player, Banshee will sync media until your player is
      full and then stop.        
      </p>
    </note>
    
    <p>If you have created playlists or smart playlists in your music library,
    they will also be displayed as a sync option for Music.  This can be 
    helpful when creating smart playlists, as smart playlists will automatically
    update as new content is added based on the playlist rules, and Banshee
    will sync the new playlist to your device every time you plug it in.
    </p>
    
    <p>Banshee will display the total hard drive space of your portable music
    player in a graph in the bottom center of Banshee.  The graph will show you
    how much space is taken by audio files, video, other and free space.  
    Directly below that Banshee will show you how many total items are stored
    on your portable music player, how many hours or days of listening that is
    equal to, and total space used.
    </p>
    
  </section>

  <section id="sync-manually">
    <title>Sync Your Entire Library</title>
    <p>You can drag and drop media to your portable music player form Banshee.
    Select the file or files you want to copy to your portable media player
    and then press and hold your right mouse button and drag the file(s) to
    your portable media player icon in Banshee.  This will copy the files to 
    your device.
    </p>
    
    <p>If your music library is encoded in a format that your portable media
    player does not support, such as OGG or FLAC, and you have the necessary
    codecs installed, Banshee can automatically transcode these files to MP3
    when transferring to your portable media player.  Check with your Linux
    distribution for the necessary codecs as it is outside the scope of this
    help and varies by distribution.
    </p>
    
    <note style="tip">
      <p>You may need to eject your device to load the files correctly
      on your portable music player.  To eject your device in Banshee,
      using your mouse right click the device in the Banshee menu and
      press <gui>Disconnect</gui>.

    <p>You can play music stored on your portable music player directly in

  <section id="pmp-delete">
    <title>Remove Music From your Portable Music Player</title>

    like to remove and right click the tracks and choose "Delete" or from the 
    menu choose <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Delete</gui></guiseq>.</p>
    
     <note style="warning">
      <p>Deleting files from your portable music player will permanently remove
      the files and you will not be able to recover them.
