[IMPLEMENTED] - SAP (Slight Atari Player) plugin proposal

(1/4) > >>

Voy/SSG^Dial:
Here is homepage of the ASAP - Another Slight Atari Player: http://asap.sourceforge.net/ - you can find there sources also. With this player you can listen to Atari 8-bit music with many popular player for many platforms. Is it possible to modify ASAP source files to adapt it for Rockbox purposes (like a SID plugin)? It would be great to listen to .SAP files with my Sansa... ^^

LambdaCalculus:
Here's the Big Question (TM): What license is the project under?

(By the way, this should be posted in Feature Ideas.)

linuxstb:
Looking at the source code, it seems to be "GPL v2 or later".  From a quick look, it also doesn't appear to use floats/doubles - so a port should be perfect for Rockbox.

I am not programmer, so I don't know how to modify source code for Rockbox... :-[ Can you do this? I would be thankful for ever... :)

This would seem an ideal time to learn then....  Most people are unlikely to spend their free time on something they aren't going to use.  A port may be feasible, but it doesn't necessarily follow that it is 'easy' (all is relative!).  Your best bet is to try to interest other prople who want this that have the skills, or even better, acquire them yourself :)
