In which device does rockbox work the best?
« on: June 05, 2009, 04:03:32 PM »
I'm looking for a small and cheap device, capable of running rockbox/ucLinux. The device should have a screen and a way to hook up at least one usb device with it. Easy software development for the device under Linux is also important. Things like OpenMoko, OpenPandora, GPX2 and such are too expensive for me. Price should be less than 100€ or 140$ (USD).

I don't think Rockbox has USB host support on any target.

I made a list of devices with usb host:
  • iriver H320
  • iriver H340
  • iAudio X5
  • Gigabeat F
  • Gigabeat X
  • Gigabeat S

irivers seem to work the best, all features & drivers 100% done. But does rockbox support USB host on iriver?

Rockbox doesn't support USB host on *anything*.

Why not? Do you think that's a useless feature?

No, I think it's generally wanted.  It's just that no-one's done it.
