Rockbox Development > New Ports

The Zune -- has the day finally arrived?

<< < (3/3)

xBr4v3x:
Well now we know alot more about the Zune HD thanwe did back then so it would be a little easier of a start this time and quicker hopefully. We know that  with Liberate, we can strip the Zune UI and replace it with Windows CE(2000) UI and that allows us to access most (if not all) of the file system on the device its self.
It only has 128mb RAM, bu with a months time of work we can allow it to use Virtual RAM from the storage available to the user, making it a little more useful and faster for flash integration and better game support as well as perfect media playback

Flash? Game support?

These are things the Zune firmware handles, Rockbox is not the Zune firmware, nor does it try to be a replacement thereof. Assuming all went to plan on the bootloader end (and quite frankly, nothing is happening there), Rockbox wouldn't need to care about any of this (and, nor should it) due to dual-boot. Whatever the original firmware does or doesn't do has no bearing on what Rockbox does or doesn't do on the same target device.

And on a slightly more personal note, Flash is evil, I'm not sure anyone from the project would put any time or effort into making Flash in Rockbox a possibility.
