Rockbox Development > New Ports

GP2X

<< < (2/4) > >>

Llorean:
I think the idea is that it would most likely better to spend time taking the existing software and improving it than spending the gruntwork necessary to get Rockbox up and running on it in the first place.

Though it's possible that since the GP2X uses SDL that the Rockbox SIM could be adapted to run as a standalone audio player on the device, giving you Rockbox within its existing environment.

seriously...the gp2x can do anything rockbox can do (mame, doom, gameboy/gb colour, and a lot more) i mean it has ps1 emulation...it plays music, has a shat load of free games, plays video, runs off linux...i mean there is no reason at all...its like asking for a ds with one screen...no offense but the gp2x is great as it is and only needs a few hardware tweeks (which the new model has) and a few firmware tweeks... it has everything else...

Does it have gapless?

goemon4:
idk i heard it has great music playback though

LinusN:
Anyone is free to port Rockbox to any platform. I'm sorry that I seemed to dislike the idea, but to me it looks like it would be a step down in functionality, as Rockbox is mainly a music player firmware.
