Archos 2 Vision
« on: March 22, 2011, 09:46:46 PM »
I never thought I'd say this about something, but Rockbox is too well documented.
I read through the introduction stuff, and even found the list of devices on which Rockbox is able to run. But I was never really able to find the answers I needed;

1) Can I install Rockbox on my Archos 2 Vision?
2) Should I?
and
3) Will it do what I want it to do?
The last one is the kicker. I bought the Archos as it claimed it would play FLAC. But, it doesn't seem to play any of my FLAC files. My uses are simple; I just want to listen. I don't need to record or have crazy fonts or play games. I just want to take some of my music with me when I roll, and my library is almost exclusively FLAC. As such, it's almost exclusively useless with my Archos. I hoped that Rockbox was the answer. So I found my way here. But I quickly got buried under all the information. If anyone wishes to help me along here, I will appreciate it. Thank you.

So, given that the Archos 2 Vision isn't listed explicitly, that implies I cannot install Rockbox on it, correct?

It's not mere implication. The list is explicit and even says "If your player is not listed above, then Rockbox does not run on it."
