I assume this is the name of the screen manufacturer - http://www.visionox.com/en/product.aspx?PrID=4
bertrik:
dfkt, I think you're right.
It appears that the controller for the OLED is a SEPS114A and that the OLED itself is a Visionox M00230.
In the original firmware, near the Visionox text, there is also a mention of "WiseChip". I think this could be the alternative display supported by the original firmware, I haven't been able to match it yet to the display code.
bertrik:
Rockbox for the Clip Zip now boots and can play audio. The code for this is in SVN.
Beware that several things don't work yet, or don't work properly, see the SansaClip wiki.
For example, the display colours are wrong, it seems red and blue are swapped.
Audio playback works, but it takes up to 10 seconds for the first track to start.
This target seems to have the narrowest display we've seen so far. There is no WPS yet for the 96x96 pixel display. To be able to run plugins, many plugins will first need to be updated for the 96x96 resolution.
Per:
I don't know if i am allowed to write this here.
Because in the wiki the Port status is
"radio works, RDS support to be added later "
Does the ClipZip really has the RDS feature or not? For me i don't get RDS with the
original v01.01.17 Firmware.
The i found this Forum entry:

(I live in germany not in the uk)
Can someone help me and other ClipZip Owners?
bertrik:
The hardware for RDS is there (at least in my player). Reception of RDS requires a pretty strong and clear signal as far as I know. In the original firmware I get a kind of station code (like "WREO"), the 8-character station name and a longer string with other info.
In rockbox, we can perhaps use the station code to select station "album art".
RDS sends data in 4x16-bit packets, the code to process these packets into useful information has not been written yet for rockbox. I plan a kind of generic approach, where the fm tuner driver can submit these raw RDS packets and receive notification when a full RDS message is complete.
BTW, the display colours are now what they're supposed to be and the delay when starting a track is gone.
