When RockBox will support this new firmware?
-
Rockbox is a Replacement firmware. It doesn't really care about trying too hard to "support" various original firmwares. At some point, someone who can safely test a bootloader with that may, but I'm sure you can see where for the project's goals, working on actual Rockbox stuff is a more valid use of time.

I know!
I used RockBox but now i cn not patch firmware 1.31 by rockbox patcher!
-
So patch one of the earlier supported ones instead....
-
Right. Firmware 1.31 doesn't offer anything useful anyway, except a couple of games that already exist in Rockbox.
-
So RockBox will not support 1.31?
-
Let's put it this way:
1. Rockbox doesn't currently support 1.31.
2. There is no-one that I am aware of who plans to implement it in the near future, because those who are capable of doing so have other priorities.
-
Why not ask iRiver to support Rockbox so that we no longer need to patch firmwares? ;)
-
iRIver support dont answer to me.

1.31 adds nothing which Rockbox doesn't already offer, which gives a full-time Rockbox user no reason to upgrade. If the added features in 1.31 do seem important to you then you probably aren't using Rockbox fully and should either (a) switch back to 1.31, get the feature you want and be happy, or (b) get more acquainted with RB, read the manual, etc, and find no need for 1.31.
