apps Grayscale library: (1) Ported to iriver H1x0. Experiments have shown that the intended 49-shade mode isn't possible due to interference between the internal greylevel generation of the LCD and external pixel flipping, so the lib allows 33 shades as on the Archos. The current implementation wastes RAM by not switching the LCD to b&w mode and simply using colours 0 and 3 only. However, this allows to show a partial greyscale overlay and normal 4-shade graphics in parallel. (2) Converted all asm blocks to use symbolic parameters. (3) Properly marked asm input parameters that are changed within the block as in-out and feed them from a temp variable where necessary. (4) Screenshot is not yet working on H1x0. 2005-07-27 19:58:49 +00:00

firmware Added support for ID3V2 ReplayGain tags (as written by Foobar). Generalized the replaygain tag parsing a bit, to cut down the code size (APE tags should use this as well, but as it requires larger changes, it will have to wait for another commit). Also fixed a bug in the ID3V2 parser; ISO-8859-1 strings could confuse the main parsing loop (causing bufferpos to come out of sync). 2005-07-27 11:54:33 +00:00

Build Your Own Rockbox

1. Check out 'rockbox' from CVS (or extract a downloaded archive). You
   want to check out 'rockbox-devel' instead if you want the simulator
   code too (for trying out things on host before making target tests).

   (For more information about the simulator, read UISIMULATOR.)

   $ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@www.rockbox.org:/cvsroot/rockbox login 
   $ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@www.rockbox.org:/cvsroot/rockbox co rockbox

     or

   $ tar xzf rockbox.tar.gz

2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
   and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.

   $ cd rockbox
   $ mkdir build
   $ cd build

4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
   target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
   few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
   gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
   Archos.

   $ ../tools/configure

5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.

6. Make sure you have sh-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure that you
   have 'perl' in your PATH too.

   $ which sh-elf-gcc
   $ which perl

7. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
   directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.

   $ make

8. Copy the archos.mod or ajbrec.ajz file to your archos, reboot it and
   *smile*.  Recent Rockbox versions need no reboots, just PLAY a new rockbox
   version and that'll be loaded and replace the currently running version.

   $ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/archos
   $ cp ajbrec.ajz /mnt/archos
   $ umount /mnt/archos

Whenever the tools/configure script gets updated, you can make your makefile
updated too by running 'tools/configure update'.

If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:

   $ mkdir build-fmrecorder
   $ cd build-fmrecorder
   $ ../tools/configure

   $ mkdir build-player
   $ cd build-player
   $ ../tools/configure
