Codec sleep, saving power when idle

<< < (2/2)

LambdaCalculus:
It's mostly the unused hardware in the iPods that we can do this with, but I'm sure there are other targets with hardware currently unused by Rockbox that we can do this with (Gigabeast?)

Also, +1 for codec sleep!

Hillshum:
Also, do we know if the Broadcom video chip is using power?

FS#9890 - iPod 5G: LCD sleep, BCM shutdown and bootstrap

torne:
7.5mA seems like a pretty worthwhile improvement: my ipod draws only 25mA when idle with the LCD disabled, so cutting another 7.5 is indeed edging closer and closer to being able to leave it turned on :)
