Michael Hohmuth 4844142e16 Do not update resume information and do not log statistics when a track is interrupted within the first 15 seconds. Regard a rewind to 0:00 as a track restart (updating resume position / playback statistics before the rewind and starting the 15 s delay). This allows skipping forward across an unplayed track without changing its resume offset. Also, it is possible to skip backward to the previous track after rewinding to the current track to 0:00 (pressing Left twice) without losing the current track's resume position. Initially contributed by Dave Slusher Caveats: * Works only for SWCODEC * Skipping forward without altering the resume position does not work when skip to outro has been turned on. * The 15-second window in which the resume offset will not be updated should start at the initial resume position, not at 0:00. This would allow skipping over partially played tracks without altering the resume position. git-svn-id: svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk@29250 a1c6a512-1295-4272-9138-f99709370657		2011-02-08 20:31:27 +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*.

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
