Hi hunterleo,
Is the rockbox player in production yet? Any pictures? Specs and pricing?

We will ship them with our system first.

Is it more difficult for your SW engineers to port Rockbox than to create (or port) a proprietary OS for the new platform? I believe that shipping a player with Rockbox preinstalled might get more people to buy it- Rockbox is quite popular and most HW running it is getting painfully obsolete..

Yes I thought battery life. Now I see why is the difference.
What about the RUIZU X18, does it also use the Actions RJ2127 or something else, possibly better (in terms of sound)?
--- Quote from: hunterleo on August 07, 2016, 10:24:04 PM ---Do you mean by battery life? Their PCB boards are designed by different engineers. And the B03's battery capacity is smaller because the space is limited.

just a quick question: is this project still on schedule?
I am really looking forward to a new rockboxable Player, as all but one of my sansa clip zips have stopped working by now! I think it is really cool, that your company is doing its best to develop that player!
Greetings and good luck
Henrik

Automatic bookmarking. M4B audibook format support.
I got the agptek B03 and the manual bookmarking is loads better than the clip jam or sport, but its not as good rockbox which autobookmarks when you shut it down. I can live without both but they are really nice to have.
I figure the auto bookmarking is probably the more import,since I can manually convert m4b

If you hold the middle button to turn the player off, it will automatically bookmark where it played.

Great project! Features in my dream music player would be, if we exclude the SoC and audio output capabilities:
* FM radio chip
* SD controller with 2TB card support
* USB 3.0 or 3.1 controller
* Easily replaceable, large lithium-ion battery
* Durable physical lock slider
* SD slot (ideally full-size)
* USB type C connectorDo you have any plans to allow for fast data exchange, USB type C and larger SD support?
Is there a physical lock mechanism -- I really missed that feature going from a Gigabeat F to the Sansa Clip Zip?
