Recording Enhancements Pack

Llorean:
Why don't you split it THEN put those split ones in the tracker, instead of trying to do it in the wrong order?

Hi there,

Daft newby question:

I've got an iHP140 (which I bought on ebay having got fed up trying to make any external recordings with my iAudio X5L - no plug-in mic power apparently, and even after buying a cheap mic pre-amp on ebay it still doesn't work).

I've downloaded Rockbox version R14632-070907, which is superb (thanks to everyone that coded it!).

I now want to add the Recording Enhancements Pack patch to my download.

When I click on the link to the patch at the beginning of this thread, it just opens a new window with the code in.

So, my daft newby question is "What do I do with that"? Save it? As what? Do I have to overwrite files in my existing download? Would it be easier just to download everything again from Mmmm's signature?

Cheers

Duncan

AlexP:
You save it as a file, then use it to patch the rockbox source code.  Following that you compile the source code into a build which you then put on your player.

Have a look at http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?topic=SimpleGuideToCompiling

Edit:  I don't know when the REP was last updated.  If it is a while it is likely it will no longer apply cleanly without needing editing.  If you use one of Mmm's builds bear in mind I think they are quite old and you will miss out on new features + bug fixes (although the H1x0 builds are quite stable).

If you run any build other than the official build you download from the current builds page then be aware that they are unsupported here.

Davide-NYC:
I'm also not entirely sure any of the features that are exclusive to the REP are absolutely necessary for recording. Most of the essential features have already been accepted into the main Rockbox code.

It looks cool though.

Hi,
Thanks for the replies. I've been recording using the download I have without the REP, but I read a review praising the improved clarity of the screen and was keen to try it.

I think the easiest thing is if I download Mmm's signature version - see if I notice any of whatever's missing and decide which I prefer..

Cheers,

Duncan
