Nicolas Pennequin 9d4bed7ff0 Album art support. Based on FS#3045, but heavily modified to adapt to MoB and for cleanness.
The cover pictures are loaded from external bitmaps. JPEG and embedded art are not supported. The pictures will only be drawn on the main display. There is no resizing but it is possible to specify the WPS bitmap size in the bitmap names (e.g. cover.100x100.bmp).
The bitmaps are stored in the main buffer and read directly from there. Currently, duplicate bitmaps will simply be present several times in the buffer, but this will be improved.
To enable for a target, #define HAVE_ALBUMART in its config file.

rbutil Hopefully fix Ipod bootloader installation on Windows with RbUtilQt, without breaking ipodpatcher. I don't have any Ipod to test with, but the change is easy to revert. 2007-11-06 19:28:14 +00:00
tools Initial version of mknkboot - a utility to replace "merge0.cpp" to insert a Rockbox bootloader into a Gigabeat-S nk.bin firmware update image. This was rewritten from scratch, but has been tested to produce output files identical to merge0.cpp. 2007-11-11 12:08:06 +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
