Wodz,

The day I see it in the unstable ports list, I'm buying one,

Thank you for your work on this!!!!

People, the first rule of open source development is don't pester the developers.  They are doing this out of the kindness of their heart and will provide updates when they feel it is worthwhile to do so.  You asking isn't going to change anything except suck the fun out of it for them - never mind that three people asked in a row!  You can help by either contributing to the code, or being patient.

if future ones have a dedicated stereo aux/line-in input of very high quality, low low noise floor. i would very happy and interested . would really quite like a pro level audio recorder running rockbox . a pre amp strapped to a player with aux input would do. Rockbox’s recording mode its really good with lossless compression to wavpack  ! better then the standard pro audio recorders! Im getting to know its auto trigger function which is most handy to have. Im using my iaudio x5 currently but if i break it i have no replacement  :'(.

would also love a standard li-ion cell size like 14500. in a battery holder for easy user replacement. https://www.banggood.com/KeepPower-14500-800mAh-3_7v-Protected-Rechargeable-Li-ion-Battery-p-918316.html

So I restarted my work on the port. Today I got sound working. I am still pissed off by the Agptek's GPL voilation. Shame on you Agptek!!!! The bad news is I don't see any easy way for installation. Rootfs is ubifs which is not easily repackable. Maybe someone has some experience with handling ubifs images?

Maybe helpful?: https://elinux.org/UBIFS#Creating_UBI_Image

I can help out. What do I need to do?

Also to wodz: you accept crypto donations?

Thanks for keeping up the work!

Hey guys, I've been watching this thread for a while. Any new updates? I'm looking into buying this player if there is a possibility for future rb support.

[wodz]

Basic things do work. The port needs a bit of polish before upstream merge. The main missing part is install procedure. The second place on my TODO list is bluetooth support. Unfortunately I don't have much time to work on this currently.

Hello chaps.

I put my recent work in repo. Using this tools one can build update image with rockbox bootloader implanted. I tested procedure myself as well as I have report of successful flashing of altered image from one user. README gives basic instruction what to do. More detailed documentation of how to prepare update image is contained in bootloader_install.sh file only, sorry. Consider this as early beta. If you dare to try please leave me feedback. In case of problems/question try to catch me on IRC.

Might be worth changing the title of this port thread to include the Benjie T6 as they are more widely available.

I understand that the port will work for this player too as the hardware is the same.

I'll give it a try and give feedback when I get my Benjie T6 player.

[kailashrs]

I'm unable to boot it on my Benjie T6... Am I doing something wrong :/

[wodz]

Have you unzipped rockbox.zip to the root of SD card?

Ofc, the mnt folder is in the root of the SD card

[wodz]

I don't quite understand your statement. SD is mounted under /mnt/sd_0 if this is what you mean.
