Ondio: why no ogg support?

(1/1)

brihall:
I have been looking for an inexpensive flash-based expandable player for use in my car. The Ondio SP 128 seems to fit the bill, after adding Rockbox and a 4GB MMC. Why doesn't Rockbox support ogg format on the Ondio? Is it a hardware limitation (CPU too slow)? Is it a feature that may be added in the future?

I am very impressed with the work put into Rockbox and the supported features. Thanks for all the effort!

soap:
All the Rockbox supported Archos players use a hardware MP3 decoder, and more than likely don't have the general-purpose CPU horsepower to do software decoding.

Bleh. I don't know anything about Archos players.. I've never looked at them before--now I have a good reason.
