My experience with Rockbox (first hour)

<< < (2/4) > >>

gnu:
@ betamaxman: you can use both the original firmware and rockbox on your ipod.

betamaxman:
Been seeing that, but a bit confussed. Will the rockbox bootloader boot the apple OS? Or do I need podzilla? Podzilla is nice but all the features I need and want are on rockbox anyway. Please point me in the correct direction searching dosen't seem to be helping me much I must be "search challenged" and thanks that would be cool.  8-)

lights0ut:
flick the hold switch on your iPod when you turn it on (at the apple logo, before rockbox loads) and you will get into the apple OS. ;) I think holding menu also works.

p.s.

agreed

betamaxman:
Ahh, thanks I will give that a try.  8-)
It plays jpgs by the way beautifully, and the video quality is great. Nice not to need itunes if I feel no need to. Having a bit of trouuble converting my fav video podcast dltv with winff have the propper html presets. Might be a corrupted file though.  thanks again.

betamaxman:
This is great the dual boot works wounderfully thanks. Anyone using an itunes placed library is best served to use the "database" option to play files though, due to the itunes/ipod folder structure.  8-)
