Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
I believe in the idea "design and build a Free/Open hardware audio player (DAP) and recorder, for use with RockBox." I remember that others developers as Bagder told since begin that didn't believe on it because we can't do an attractive looking player as Ipods or Sansas.
So, I am trying to make that idea real, as the best as I can, with the money, free time and knowledge I have. I don't fell responsible for implement the others expectations about a kind of this hardware.
For now I am thinking like this, even If am I doing it in a wrong way: "We are doers. We do what others only talk about." -- taken from http://www.haxx.se/And I am sure that Rockbox code started for being a simple line of codes and did evolution, so in hardware I think we should do the same.
Hello :-)Because of this reason:http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=6751.msg146274#msg146274 ,we had change the name from "Rockbox Player" to "Lyre".
I remember that others developers as Bagder told since begin that didn't believe on it because we can't do an attractive looking player as Ipods or Sansas.

Does this development board look like it could also be a target?http://cgi.ebay.com/Samsung-S3C2440-ARM9-Board-3-5-TFT-LCD-Touch-Screen_W0QQitemZ220354907595QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item220354907595&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318|301%3A0|293%3A1|294%3A50Lots of them listed for under $100 US.Looks like it has the required d/a, usb, and lcd already there. Touch screen could be used instead of buttons for UI.
scharkalvin, That's a great board, but you will need to look into the price on the tools. Atmel, the board in which casainho has, does have a free tool chain. Most boards have fair priced tools and some are very high price. Your project will reflect the price of the tools, but it does come with Linux installed or a limited windows package to install. The installed package isn't any use for programming a chip, unless you found a way. I found boards that some come with free tools, but they're limited tools. Good luck with your project and please inform us with your progress, it's a pleasure to here from you.
(...) hope it ends up as a custom board design that will be available for purchase. (...)
Would adding a microphone/line-in connector be as easy as connecting to the LLINEIN/RLINEIN pins of the TLV320AIC23 on the hardware side? Would there be a lot of code needed to make it (kind of driver?) work together with the recording functionality allready in Rockbox firmware? This would be a big gain to be able to record stuff.
I just wanted to know where we can find your libraries?
