-m, --mount=DIRECTORY
iPod mountpoint. Default is $IPOD_MOUNTPOINT
-n, --ipod-name=NAME
iPod Name (For unlabeled iPods). iTunes displays this name, not
the label.
-v, --volume=VALUE
Adjust volume +-VALUE% (example: --volume +5)
-e, --energy

-g, --fwguid=HEXVAL
Enforce iPod serial/firewire-guid. Late 2007 iPod models (3gen
Nano, Classic, Touch) refuse to work unless the iTunesDB has
been signed with a sha1 hash. This hash helps to detect
corrupted databases, prevents sharing an iTunesDB between
multiple iPods and locks out non-apple software. GNUpod is able
to create the required hash value if it knows the iPods serial
number, this is a 16 chars long hex value such as:
’000ba3100310abcf’ and should be autodetected on GNU/Linux (via
/proc/bus/usb/devices) and Solaris (via prtconf -v). Use this
switch to set the serial if the autodetection somehow fails to
find the correct serial number of your iPod. You can also
specify the value in your configuration file (gnupodrc) as
’mktunes.fwguid = 000ba3100310abcf’.
