saratoga:
I do most of my development on the pi.  It runs linux, so you can run the normal linux sdl build. 

rna023:
directly boot up a rockbox ,not a simulater on Debian ?

wodz:
Arduino used to be based on AVR 8bit MCU with a few kB of ram. Rockbox runs on 32bit processors with at least 2MB of ram.

toehser:
Arduino: Forget it.
Raspberry Pi (app): I think Android runs on Pi and Rockbox on Android?
Raspberry Pi (really native): Why?
I guess the Raspberry Pi likely has the horsepower, but given that it also already can natively run like 5000 different highly customizable open source audio players, why would anyone ever spend the sweat?  I would just start with some currently-maintained open-source Linux audio player like Audacious or VLC, then I would spend some time looking at the input-interfaces and output-interfaces that a zillion bored college students have already written on top of them, if I wanted to make Raspberry Pi do something... Anyone with the technical know-how to do a Pi port also has the technical know-how to be too lazy to do it when it isn't the shortest path- programmers have inborn instincts to do things an easier way, if they can scratch their itch without the hard way.  And making a new port is definitely the hard way, when you can already run Linux apps...
