This thread has been about various attempts at building a player. You weren't first here. Please don't think you're the one who should tell the world what to do or not to do, and try to make use of contructive criticism instead of dismissing it out of hand.
Quote from: Llorean on March 11, 2009, 02:48:44 PM(...) As it is, we could be asking YOU to communicate more here about your software development work (patches on the tracker, and such). At the moment you've basically forked Rockbox and are working on it in your own space, rather than attempting to bring your software work back to the core project (we could probably have much of your in-progress code in SVN as long as you've been trying to follow the Rockbox coding styles, etc). (...)Llorean, I think you were talking with Alex Cantos, however I can explain this part. I am the only one working on porting the firmware and as that, I don't have time nor knowledge to make patches. Well, I just learned recently to make patches and all this technologies were new to me at begin of the project.

Hi Casainho, So, is this new add on board suppose to represent the Calypso board? Maybe, you can use some of the code from "AT91SAM Internet Radio"?I was wondering which audio chip did you go with? The wiki page states one chip, but you direct the digi-key site to a different chip. Does anyone know where to find the page for the do's and don't on programming Rockbox? Thanks
You're right, I wasn't first here, and I don't pretend to tell anyone what they should do...
Again please ask, not just do whatever you think.
Yes, you should have started introducing yourself
however, I'm an active developer of the "Rockbox Player" (whose name we'll change shortly) and I strongly thing that anyone wishing to collaborate in this project should ask the rest of the developers about their thoughts. I think it's a good gesture and it's one of the main ideas behind open source community: sharing things and helping one another.
Besides, I don't know what criticism you're talking about, I haven't seen any criticism from dkamin and that's not what I'm commenting about.

And dkamin read that page before his first post, since is the page of the project, he couldn't know about the project details before reading that page.

In looking back at my original post, I see that I did not use much detail (...). The only important is that everyone who wants to help, needs to get together, share the information and we all should manage our energies. Let's continue.
And as for guilt - come on, for heaven's sake.
Quote from: BigBambi on March 13, 2009, 08:48:42 AMAnd as for guilt - come on, for heaven's sake.I am bad at English language, maybe I couldn't express myself, find the right word sorry.For me, is important that people first approach to others and saying in what can help, to manage in a good way the energies, like Alex and Tom did:Example from Alex: I CAN HELP IN: I can develop/test/improve hardware, implement software and do some visual/conceptual design. MOTIVATION: I love audio electronics, gadgets, open source and Rockbox, need any more reasons? There is no point for being working on 2 different hardwares, dkamin should before talk with us and discuss what to do. We were working already in hardware. He is free to do whatever he wants, but if he goes alone, he can end alone doing his Rockbox port.
There is very much a point in working on 2 different hardware configurations if the first one being worked on is has bad and illogical hardware choices.
Quote from: BigBambi on March 13, 2009, 09:09:21 AMThere is very much a point in working on 2 different hardware configurations if the first one being worked on is has bad and illogical hardware choices.No, there isn't. We are very developers so we must manage very well our energies. dkamin didn't talk about any reason for doing a 2nd hardware, and if "bad and illogical hardware choices" were the reasons, it should be discussed for the help of the project.

See Llorean's post above for examples. This entire thread is full of examples of people saying things like, "I think this is the wrong choice for this reason" and you ignoring them.

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/

Casainho, I would like to send you one of the prototypes when I get to that point so you can continue your development around my design. We can talk about this in the near future.
