work on best low cost mp3 player for rockbox

Will it have Rockbox support?

Not this one. The Rockbox one takes 3 months to come up.

I looked at X1000 materials - thats really nice SoC (at least on the paper) considering $10 price tag.

Thanks!

I got some inside news. Ingenic JZ4760B will be discontinued soon. X1000 is the replacement.

Hello,

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

Yes, do you have any suggestions for the new player?

Thank you,

I'd like to see a player along the line of the Sansa Clip Zip, Plus and the rest of that family.

Something small.  Has a clip so you can clip and carry with you - around the house, out for a run, working in the yard or taking a solo trip by car.

Go for as high a res display as you can get.  Like the Clip Zip.

As far as Rockbox users go, I think there is a decent market for types like me who are beginning to wake up to the fact that the Sansa clip players are gone as far as Rockbox is concerned.

That's at least one population of users that has already been identified yet there's nothing on the market right now that can make any of us happy.

We're all wishing you the best!

Hi Leo,

if it's not too late and you're still on the track in developing a Rockbox player, may I suggest giving the option of line-in or external microphone recording? Players that support this are in short supply, outdated and usually quite expensive. Would it be possible to add that option?

Cheers!

Hi,

I will talk to our engineer to see what we can do about it.

Thanks for the advice.

We have come out the first model which doesn't have a clip on it. It's full metal casing, so it is too heavy to a clip. We also will launch an armband for it. The clip version would be the second model.

Thank you!

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

These are software features.

It might be more useful to limit requests to hardware features for a "low cost mp3 player for rockbox".

I just realised to ask Leo- is Rockbox going to be ported by your company and preinstalled on the player, or will you be shipping it with your own system?

We will ship them with our system first.

@hunterleo
What audio chip is inside the AGPtEK B03, is it the same as in the A02? If yes, then why there's so significant difference in power performance between the two?

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.
