USB sound suggestion

(1/7) > >>

Ok, I really hate to have to suggest something like this.  Becuase I know you guys work har don this, and if I want it, I should code it myself, too bad I dont have any coding experience.

Anyways.

I posted this on misticriver, but I thought it would be a good idea if we could get sound to be played through the usb port to a 3.5 jack.

I thought of this becuase of a recent ipod amp I saw.  The audio came from the usb port, rather than the already amped, headphone jack.

I assume this would help the quality of the song.

Good Idea?  Possible?

soap:
The ipods don't have a solo USB connector, they have a "dock connector" with lots of pins besides USB.  There is a line-out on the dock connector.  That is what the amp was connected to.  Line-out adapters can be purchased, or made quite easily.
If you are going to use a headphone amp, yes, it is a good idea to run it off the line-out connector.

Genre9mp3:
It's possible to stream audio via the USB port on devices with USBOTG (H300, iAudio X5) Though, it's not easy to do that at all, since we have to be able first to control the USBOTG chip (hard task on H300, harder on X5 due to lack of documentation). In other words, don't expect this soon.

Is there dock support for rockbox and the h10 yet?

Does the h10 by defualt, supply sound to the headphone jack and the usb slot?

If so, shouldnt the usb cable just work with the Left/Right and Ground connectors to a .25, 3.5 or whatever you choose.
