Mystery Keeper:
I've made a list of chips I could read without disassembling the device. Which means one side of the board. I'm a programmer (though my assembler experience is next to none), but I can't handle hardware. Someone smarter pretty please, give a start to this port!

Post Merge: January 02, 2011, 06:21:38 PMI found out several different "digital frames" (VP8870 can act as one) use .mtg files as firmware upgrade. They all have some similar elements in interface - like filepaths and icons. They even have remote controller of identical design. What does that mean? They are all built in same way? There's one firmware toolkit for them all?

TexasRockbox:
If it's any help the Digital Foci Picture Porter 35 uses .mtg files.

I have a VP8870 as well.  Nice hardware:

1) Standard battery
2) User upgradable 2.5" SATA HDD  (easily done -- mine is 640GB)
3) Excellent 800x480 LCD with outstanding viewing angles.

Crazy bad firmware, but not a bad way to store and play hundreds of CDs worth of .flac files.

I've written Vosonic several times with suggestions to improve the firmware.  No reply and no improvements.

I have some datasheets and an interesting version of the VP8860 (almost identical except for FM) firmware.

If Vosonic would allow for gapless and screen background changes....

Datasheets I gathered so far:
XILINX SPARTAN
Wolfson WM8978G
Texas Instruments CL245A (Not sure if the right one)
Texas Instruments TPS61032

You should make a wiki page for this port and then put the documents on the wiki.
