An Ode to rockbox...
« on: June 03, 2025, 08:36:48 AM »
Not been here for a while (Years) but I just tripped over "an Ode to Rockbox" on youtube

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qw-VvGsYpSU

I searched here for the video ID and the youtuber (mitxela) but didn't get any hits so even though it's 4 years old it may be news to folk here.

I'm not a user any more, I have the luxury of not working in an office any more so can use Lyrion https://lyrion.org/on my squeezebox players - it's a pretty similar vibe to the heyday here, but my nephew is Rocking my old Sansa player as he's not allowed a phone at his work :-)

Yeah, it was also on the front page's news section until the 4.0 release pushed it off.

A very heartfelt video that I'm sure most of the active and former developers can relate to.

Really should have thought of searching the whole site not just the forums :-( sorry

EDIT - I forgot to say that I'm really impressed that the project is still progressing - well done current team :-)
Folk like my nephew, who can't have phones in their workplace, have a way of having their own music...
