Hardware / Archos Jukebox 6000 HDD Repalcement with MicroSD - Success !
« Last post by asper on September 16, 2024, 02:37:16 AM »Old and unsupported device but this can be useful if your HDD fails.
I managed to replace the original HDD with this IDE emulator using MicroSD:
Installation utility won't recognize the device anymore but you can manual-install rockbox (maybe it is using some VID-PID that changes replacing the HDD ?).
The only issue is that, removing the original HDD, the torx screw won't work anymore because they go inside the original HDD screw-holes.
The original HDD was still working if connected to USB but the original fw won't load anymore. Replacing the HDD with the above adapter and a 16GB microSD makes everything in a working state again.
I used a virtual machine [VM Ware] with Windows XP for testing (drivers for Windows > XP seem to not exist).

New Ports / can anyone port the saregama caravaan go?
« Last post by arnav-dev-1001 on September 16, 2024, 01:21:13 AM »The saregama caravaan is an mp3 player that comes with "2500+ preloaded songs" provided by saregama. I think this is only for India. The model which i have is the 1000 model and i think there is also a 2000 one. i think there is a bootloader as the songs are stored in an sdcard inside when deassembled. Can it be rockboxed?

Audio Playback, Database and Playlists / Playlist Viewer - new Track Display options
« Last post by iPodVT on September 15, 2024, 06:43:44 PM »The two new Playlist Viewer Track Display options are really great! I propose that the two original settings - "Track Name Only" and "Full Path" - be slightly renamed for greater clarity and specificity in the new list of settings options. Here's what I suggest:
Track File name
Track File full path
Title & Album from ID3 tags
Title from ID3 tags
(I'm not confident re which words should be capitalized and which should be lowercase.)

User Interface and Voice / Re: Make playlists use the database info of a song instead of its file name
« Last post by nezzled on September 14, 2024, 10:43:56 PM »Am I correct in thinking the latest dev version has reimplemented this feature? It seems to be back (though I've gotten confused which version of rockbox I saw it on - it appeared and then was removed again, but now it's back?)Glad to see this got fully added.
Am I right in thinking it now gets the information directly from the ID3 tags on-the-fly rather than the database? Was the plan not to use cuesheets and extended playlist formats? Was it decided to do it this way instead?
Anyway, it doesn't seem to cause a significant slowdown in accessing playlists.
[edit] if it's now a permanent feature I guess the manual probably needs another update?
Ironically it was added just after I switched off iTunes again (for unrelated reasons)
Not sure how it works, but if it's less laggy than it's probably some other optimization that they found

Rockbox Utility / Re: Sansa Clip+ "Configuration is Invalid", "No Mount Point Given"
« Last post by papayaa on September 14, 2024, 08:23:42 PM »I believe the limit for sdxc is 2TB, but you will have to reformat to fat32.
Got it
So glad there's active devs on here. I appreciate all the help and am super excited to try out my mp3. Thank you all so much for everything! 8

« Last post by papayaa on September 14, 2024, 06:45:10 PM »That's what it was 
Thank you!
I completed the install successfully but just thought I'd quickly ask - with Rockbox I can use a microsdxc card on my device, correct? Is there a limit to the size?

Rockbox General Discussion / Re: Donation - just not via PayPal
« Last post by speachy on September 14, 2024, 04:40:41 PM »First of all I would like to thank all developers and active forum participants for their commitment.
I would like to support the project with a donation, but not via PayPal.
Are there other options?
I think the only other mechanism we're in a position to use is Zelle, which requires the sender to have a US bank account.
