Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
I'm not a developer, but I'm not unfamiliar with mucking around with this sort of thing either, and if someone can help me get started I would greatly appreciate it.
It sounds like your device uses some protocol rockbox doesn't support. Short of reverse engineering whatever it expects and then implementing support for it, theres probably nothing you can do.
An "older model" would be, say, the Firewire-only iPods - the iPod Video is pretty late by our standards
If you have the time to document your experience it would be much appreciated.
You're correct about it being able to load from USB devices (in fact, I have tried it). I saw the thread about changing the USB ID, but I didn't realize it also affected the manner in which the head unit would try to talk to the iPod directly. What you say makes sense.I also was hesitant to try it for the reasons you mention.
Is there any chance that the serial bitrate (currently set to Auto) would affect compatibility? I didn't tinker with that at all.
ipods are unbrickable.
There is a custom build in this thread, but I haven't tried it yet. http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=24360.0
