What is the most powerful supported player for ROCKBOX?
X86:
and remember that those are digital audio players,they can process another thing that audio with the proper programming,but that is going to give some troubles,but I think that those troubles would need to be minimal as the slow speed on sound and video on rockboy,the game boy and game boy color used Zilog Z80 processors they have a clock speed of about 10 mhz and the digital audio players have more than that,afaik the minimum speed on the lowest end of the supported dap's of rockbox the lowest speed of processor is about 11 mhz, I think that is the code,but thought is a little hard to program to play video games,as the games have more complicated set of instructions,in our daps those will be slow
gnu:
Six lines, one sentence - wow.
Anyway, it's much harder to emulate something than merely processing it (like an executable).

I recently bought an iPod Video 5.5G (80GB), but I was a lot happier with my iRiver H10 (20 GB)... it had everything that Rockbox can take advantage of (rockboy is awkward but works) however it only has a wimpy 20GB...
So I would strongly recommend an H10 is the HD size is not an issue (or if you think 200 bucks for a 60-80GB HD upgrade is nothing either!)
soap:
I don't want to pick a fight but I think the H10 stinks.
The H10 is an iPod Mini's hardware plus a colour screen and radio.
While it has a removeable battery, said battery is near impossible to replace - and any lithium battery of that age is likely nearing death. It alsio has the worst buttons of any supported player (opinion - but I doubt anyone who has used one disagrees).
The H10 is, without a doubt in my mind, everything which is bad about iPods x10 and none of the good features of iPods. In short - it is the weakest target.

ej0rge:
The 20gb H10 takes the same replacement li-po pack as an H120 or H320, but otherwise i agree completely. The H10 is awkward at best compared to many rockboxable DAPs.
For "power" I'd have to vote for the beast, but all that power cuts into it's battery life.
