Rockbox Ports are now being developed for various digital audio players!
I tried to replace the firmware on an e250r with the firmware of an e250, but i just got "load main image failed." the easy fix is to just drag the old e250r firmware back to the player in recovery mode.
the R version has real/rhapsody helix drm in it and not just in the firmware from what real has told me .
If its part of the hardware helix drm is VERY open as far as licenceing and such ..
could this be the slight diffrence that is preventing the bootloader from working ? ,,,
im still willing to use my R as test fodder...

You mean that there's a DRM key stored somewhere in the player, like in one of the flashes? I would actually assume something like that. Compare with the US iriver H300 models.Quote If its part of the hardware  helix drm is VERY open as far as licenceing and such .. I don't understand this point.Quotecould this be the slight diffrence that is preventing the bootloader from working ? ,,, Please read my previous post in this thread. It detailed several aspects to why our bootloader doesn't work on the R model yet. If you can think of other reasons, please give us details.

A. per Real/rhapsody there is DRM info stored on the actual hardware not just the firmware on the player
B. The diffrent DRM used on the R is called Helix and Its quite open source "helixcommunity.org" this portion of the DRM may be the thing that diffrent about the pre/bootloader and more than likely we can get some help from the helix community if this is the case .
C. I think the helix DRM may be the diffrence thats causing the plaintext trick not to work
D. I have and will keep on trying any new firmware on my E250R and if any one has a idea they want to try on my player that may help get us moving along I will gladly use my player to get us there .
Ive searched the forums... where is the info on the "plaintext trick"? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

now i am thinking i see were the diffrences in the R may make this tricky {this is per a email chat i am having with a person over at real about the player he wants rockbox on the R also . } what we are thinking will need to be done is to try and find a way to trick the player into thinking its a regular e2XX , then it will take the plaintext trick . but as has been said before without help from some one with a R with more experance than me in coding this is gonna take a good long time ..
