A Rockbox Music Player?

(1/3) > >>

GuitarRocker2562:
Do you think one day there will be a rockbox music player? That would be awesome! It could sync any music device by your preferences and it could play every audio and video codec rockbox can. I think that this would be a great side project starting 2007. I thought it could be based from Songbird, that is going pretty well right now. So, anyone up to it. Oh, and Llorean, what do you have to say about this? Everyone listens to you (I guess we have to). Anyway, let me know.

Yotto:
I don't understand what you're proposing.  A dedicated hardware device that can... What?

I have a "rockbox music player" right now.  It's charging via usb from my computer and playing out my desk speakers.  If I instead go into disk mode I can play it from the computer with any mp3 player available to man.

What are you suggesting that is different than these two things?  I'm not being snide, I'm honestly curious becasue I can't think of anything.

Speedforneed:
Well, if you mean a software Rockbox Music Player, like as a replacement for Windows Media Player, or Winamp, or Foobar...  I don't really see a point in that.  Maybe you are thinking something I am not.
 
As far as hardware...  All the players that support Rockbox are Rockbox music players.

Sando:
An app that generated the tagcache database for you on sync could be very useful though that would probably be more appropriate as a plugin (eg ml_pod, foo_pod) for a media player rather than a full blown app.

GuitarRocker2562:
I meant like a replacement for itunes or windows media player. It would be able to handle many more file types and it could sync with a device based on your preference. (Select playlists and copy them to your player automatically, and build a database. Like iTunes.)
