State of FM radio support on ipod6g
« on: February 13, 2023, 07:39:57 PM »
Is the FM radio supported or close to being supported on ipod6g? I have long believed it doesn't work, however this reddit post made me think it might be: https://old.reddit.com/r/rockbox/comments/qnsap0/has_anyone_been_able_to_get_the_fm_radio_working/

I tracked down what I suspect is the relevant commit here:
https://github.com/Rockbox/rockbox/commit/77f8c9c9f12f1a520467868047574fe0af7a1556

However, inside of rockbox/firmware/export/config/ipod6g.h I can see that FM radio support is commented out:
Code: [Select]
/* Define Apple remote tuner */
//#define CONFIG_TUNER IPOD_REMOTE_TUNER
//#define HAVE_RDS_CAP
//#define CONFIG_RDS RDS_CFG_PUSH

I uncommented these defines, however rockbox fails to compile with errors such as:

Code: [Select]
/config/rockbox/apps/audio_path.c: In function 'audio_set_input_source':
/config/rockbox/apps/audio_path.c:94:19: error: 'AUDIO_SRC_FMRADIO' undeclared (first use in this function)
     if (source != AUDIO_SRC_FMRADIO)
                   ^
/config/rockbox/apps/audio_path.c:94:19: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
/config/rockbox/tools/root.make:439: recipe for target '/config/rockbox/build/apps/audio_path.o' failed

Id say it probably needs interfaced to the radio and probably an init function too. sorry I'm not familiar  with the iPods to tell you what that might entail.
