Sansa Fuze: Stereo .SID file playback in Rockbox 3.12?

(1/1)

zyzzle:
Is it not possible to get stereo SID file playback through the TinySID codec? I believe merely copying the 19500 byte stereo sid.codec over the standard mono 18876 byte sid.codec does not accomplish this task. When I do that, no SID files play at all. I'm hoping I don't need to completely downgrade my Rockbox 3.12 to that customized version which has stereo .SID file playback (I think it is only based on Rockbox 3.8 IIRC). Is there a technical reason why the copy-replace operation doesn't work?

saratoga:
Codecs have to be compiled for the version of Rockbox that runs them. If versions are close to one another copying may work by chance but it'll break fairly soon.
