F40 - USB to my camera ?

(1/2) > >>

jungle27:
I would like to use the rockboxed F40 for storing photos of my DLSR when I'm far away from my PC, I'm shooting RAW and it produce heavy files (~15 MB per photo), it would save me the cost of multiple CF cards.

Is there a solution with rockbox or at least dual boot (possible with original firmware) ?
Someone working on it ?

Thanks for any info.

rosco_pc:
Nothing yet that can be used: neither dual-boot nor USB host support

GodEater:
The gigabeat F series has hardware USB support as far as I know - which means a USB host mode is next to impossible.

Llorean:
Some people were saying that the Gigabeat F series has USB hosting capability, but that it would require someone to construct an adapter for the dock port (or simply use the dock) but this still would require code in Rockbox.

jungle27:
Yes you can use USB host with the original firmware and the cradle so the other solution would be dual booting.
Is someone working on it ?

It would make the rockboxed F40 the ideal gadget for the audiophile (vorbis aotuv -q8 is so much better)  and photograph amateur on the go.
