I´m developing a Java solution for manage an iTunes Library (ITL file). The ITL format is a propietary one. I'm looking for an implementation or a documentation about ITL format but Google can't find anything useful.

Does anyone have experience about that? Where to find more information?

Thanks in advance.

A: 

Most of the time, Apple folks uses preferences list format (or its XML counterpart). As an example, it is the case for iPoho Library file. I have had success parsing this file using commons configuration in the past. Maybe you could try it.

iTunes Library have an XML counterpart, as you mentioned. But that file is for information to 3er developers pruporses.What I want to do is modify the ITL file so iTunes get my changes. For example, change a path of a file, increment the track count indicator, etc...

There is an open source project called titl that sounds exactly what you're looking for.

The repository is here: http://code.google.com/p/titl/
