iPod Nano 2G + Fm Tuner can't play radio

[ipodzen]

I got an iPod Nano 2 G.  I bought the FM tuner add on (Exactly like this: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2006/01/remote.jpg)

When I plug it in nothing happens and i cannot see any radio setting in Rockbox for it.

Is this supported?  How can I get radio on my ipod with this tuner?

I don't think accessories work at all on the Nano2G.

No.

FM radio is not implemented in Rockbox for the Nano2G as yet.

What would be required to get accessory support on the nano 2g?
I guess just a UART driver (we have the datasheet for this), a way to enable accessory power and a developer with both a nano 2g + accessory, right?

Bertrik,

Well, Accessory Power can be enabled/disabled on the Nano2G:

Settings - General Settings - System - Accessory Power Supply - [[No]/[Yes]]

So I guess that's one ticked off the list already


I spoke to TheSeven about this (enabling FM Radio) some time ago now, and the impression I got from him at the time was basically what you said in your post.

"A few things need to be enabled, we need a driver, and someone to actually do the work"
^{(not an actual quote...)}
