work on best low cost mp3 player for rockbox
wodz:
I can't say definitely rockbox will do much better but eCOS based original firmware for atj213x is, lets put it mildly, suboptimal. At least the versions I disassembled so far.

It's phone era now. Many chip makers don't pay much attention at mp3 player now. Not much options out there.

So, we can make power consumption of ATJ213X with rockbox lower? What device are you working on a new port for ATJ213X. Can I help you in any way?

I would be extremely careful with manufacturer figures. For example the Fuze+ with Freescale OS lasts 25h on a 550mAh battery but Rockbox lasts around 45h. And most of the savings don't come from the CPU, since with proper frequency management you can decrease it a lot, but rather properly shutting down or suspending LCD, touchpad, mmc/sd.

I am working on Iriver e100/150/200/300 series (e150 is my playground). If you have documentation for atj213x (or more precisely the one I don't have) that would be helpful.
