Rockbox for iPod Classic 6G available (and unstable)
pugliamix:
First of all, many thanks to developers for their good work on this hardware. :)
I installed it on my iPod Classic 1st gen 80 GB and I am using it every day to listen to my music collection. Should you need feedback on how it works, I'm here.
Sometimes it starts looping (TA-TA-TA-TA...) during songplaying, but it's possible to restart the OS, so it's not a big problem. And I'm really happy that now it can play open audio formats without having to convert them before!
I keep on updating Rockbox by the svn link once a week, in order to see if new features come.
Are there any news about video playback plugin developing?
???

Update to current a current SVN version, video playback was added quite recently.

Recent SVN activity has gotten the 160GB models (the "thick" design) to work now. Rockbox now has a CE-ATA driver for the thick 160GB iPod Classics.

I made the update, still I can't see, browsing in the file menu, all the .avi files I put on it. And I'm not able to find the right plugin for playback.
Could you please tell me:
1. the video plugin name;
2. have I to convert video files into something else in order to playback them on the ipod?
I thank you in advance for your help.
[UPDATE] Sorry, I just tried using an .mpg file and it works. So, I will always need a previous conversion from .avi to .mpg in order to play video files. I am going to convert some other right now, in order to watch them and to verify how this new feature works on classic. Further updates here?
