Nicolas Pennequin c16470bf04 A couple fixes:
* The menu was being drawn with the wrong colour if entered while the album name was being faded
* Display an error message if no albums have been found (which indicates that the database isn't initialised)

apps A couple fixes: 2007-12-11 00:32:08 +00:00
bootloader * Make the Gigabeat S bootloader a bit more interesting: it looks for the first firmware file it finds on the second partition and attempts to load it. Loading fails to get past the splash screen though. 2007-11-27 15:40:29 +00:00
docs Initial commit of the PictureFlow plugin, a nice visualization for album covers. 2007-12-09 18:48:02 +00:00
firmware Revert previous commit (still learning to work with git...) 2007-12-10 11:14:28 +00:00
flash Include some more stuff in the tarballs. 2007-09-04 21:53:33 +00:00
fonts add a bold version of 9+18x18 2007-12-10 11:07:51 +00:00
gdb Include some more stuff in the tarballs. 2007-09-04 21:53:33 +00:00
manual Fix missing whitespace and correct upper limit of entries in playlist 2007-12-06 20:05:38 +00:00
rbutil rbutilqt: added support for rbspeex encoder as external executable. 2007-12-01 11:41:52 +00:00
tools Refactor rbspeexenc code to include an encode_file() function, for later reuse by other programs. Add some more error handling. 2007-12-05 12:27:38 +00:00
uisimulator Simulate the effects of sector caching a bit. Bypass I/O yield if a byte counter hasn't reached a certain threshold. Can be dialed-in by changing a #define. 2007-12-03 15:33:12 +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
wps Add greyscales to Rockboxed theme and mimic the color variant a bit more. 2007-09-29 19:05:30 +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
