apps Make Speex read its input directly from the Ogg packet, which makes for less copying and one less malloc(). Thanks to Jean-Marc Valin for the tip. 2007-11-01 21:34:15 +00:00
bootloader Button driver for Logik DAX, plus some changes to the debug info displayed in the bootloader build. 2007-11-01 23:38:57 +00:00
docs Register me into a couple maintainer slots. 2007-10-31 13:43:47 +00:00
firmware Major speedup of the iPod Video LCD driver. The internal update procedure of the BCM chip is now completely shadowed, handled by a tick task as necessary. Also fixes the occasional UI freezes due to stalled BCM updates by re-kicking it after a timeout. 2007-11-02 00:07:45 +00:00
flash Include some more stuff in the tarballs. 2007-09-04 21:53:33 +00:00
fonts Fix width of the '1' and the '7', so that they have the same width as the other numerals and e.g. playing time in the wps doesn't wobble anymore. 2007-08-11 09:29:31 +00:00
gdb Include some more stuff in the tarballs. 2007-09-04 21:53:33 +00:00

rbutil RbUtilQt: Make Sansa bootloader installation work on Windows. (Compiler warnings _are_ useful. :) 2007-10-31 18:29:38 +00:00
tools Initial work on a port to the Logik DAX 1GB MP3/DAB player. The bootloader build compiles and runs (but only displays some debugging info), and the LCD and ADC drivers are working. Two different bootloader builds are possible: 1) The default build is just a test application for uploading to the device via tcctool; 2) Adding -DTCCBOOT to EXTRA_DEFINES in the build directory Makefile will compile the bootloader so that it can be appended to the end of the original firmware and installed on the device, dual-booting. This commit also includes some work by Hein-Pieter van Braam on a port to the iAudio 7, but that doesn't build yet. A large part of these ports will be generic to all TCC77x devices - see the TelechipsInfo wiki page for some other devices with this CPU. NOTE: Compiling these builds requires an arm-elf-gcc with armv5 support - the current version of rockboxdev.sh compiles such a gcc. 2007-10-28 11:08:10 +00:00
uisimulator Improve the fake interrupt stuff on the sim a bit. 2007-10-28 16:49:02 +00:00
utils Use O_BINARY when reading the firmware file - for win32 compatibility 2007-10-31 17:52:50 +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
