apps Fix FS#6215 (player crashes after trying to resume deleted music file). As mentioned in the lastest comment, the problem was in trying to resume at an offset larger than the size of the file following the one that was deleted. This revealed a crash in the buffering code, which gets a fix, but we also need to intervene earlier in the track loading so that the track that gets played will be from its start. 2008-01-08 23:48:51 +00:00

docs Accept and Fix FS#8427 - problem with empty screens in lists with pages scrolling enabled 2008-01-08 08:12:32 +00:00
firmware Add the viewport functions to the screens API, including a new getfont() function to return the font used by the current viewport. A change to the screens API makes the plugin API incompatible, so we bump version and sort. Also commit the test_viewports plugin (not built by default). This is some more of FS#8385. 2008-01-08 01:22:14 +00:00

uisimulator Initial WVS for mpegplayer. Adjusts to the user's preferred font and uses FF/RW preferences set for playback. Picked a random color for the base WVS color but it could be configured. Some engine tweaks to accomodate it since certain nescessities are clearer now. Fix a clipped YUV output bug in the SIM. 2008-01-03 17:14:28 +00:00
utils Firmware update utility for the Gigabeat S and probably other MTP devices. Based on libmtp's sendfile.c example, tweaked by Maurus Cuelenaere and me to send firmware files. 2007-11-22 18:07:40 +00:00

Build Your Own Rockbox

1. Check out 'rockbox' from SVN (or extract a downloaded archive).

   $ svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox

     or

   $ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2

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

3. Make sure you have sh/arm/m68k-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
   that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
   a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
   can be acquired with the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
   source, or will have been included if you've installed one of the
   toolchains or development environments provided at http://www.rockbox.org/

   $ which sh-elf-gcc
   $ which perl

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

   $ make
   $ make zip

7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
   *smile*.

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
