use rockbox as player in linux

[powerpan]

Hi, is that possible to use the codec files only to create a simple player in linux without SDL? any tips for the structure of the program?

Yes of course.  We provide the complete source code for our decoders.  You can incorporate them into any software you like, and in the past people have ported them to VLC for use on embedded ARM systems.  Its fairly involved though, and you'll need a detailed understanding of how codecs work in whatever software you're porting them to.

any examples?

Didn't he just give an example?

the full source code it's a little bit too complicated by it's own kernel.
I checked the sources for some time found the developers use a lot low layer methods including ELF layout to load the codec(the dynamic lib) into queue and open music file into queue, I just wanna use very simple calls to codec_main, but got no sample codes guide how I could do that.
test_codec.c has big difference with codec_thread.c

yes the codecs are loaded when needed in rockbox, if your simple player links them statically you can of course avoid all that but you will then need to handle multiple codecs in some different way

I wanna just use dlopen to use the codec, how?

after 2 days work, made an application that could load a codec to play music lol:

congratulation.....
