so far the only simulator that can simulate a Player

HACKING ROCKBOX
Terminology
The hardware is mainly separated in two different versions. The "Player" is
the Archos Jukebox Player 6000 and Archos Studio 20, while the "Recorder" is
the Archos Recorder 20. The "Player" has a character-based LCD screen with 2
lines of 11 letters and a big round thing on the keypad (featuring 6
different keys), while the "Recorder" has a graphical LCD and has all its 10
keys separate.
1. Get Sources
The the very latest sources off the CVS server. Get the 'firmware' dir and
the 'uisimulator' dir on the same dir level, to make it easier to build
things (some of the files assume this hierarchy).
All CVS details can be found here: http://bjorn.haxx.se/rockbox/cvs.html
2. Build Uisimulator
For the X11 simulator, change directory to uisimulator/x11.
Edit the "DISPLAY" variable in the Makefile to match the target LCD you want
to build the simulator for.
Run 'make'.
3. Run Uisimulator
To create a simulated disk drive for the simulator to see, create a
subdirectory named 'archos' and populate it with a bunch of test
files/directories.
Run 'rockboxui'.
4. Target Keypad Equivalents
The keyboard's numerical keypad is used to simulate the Archos keypads:
Keyboard Generic Archos
-------- --------------
+ ON
8 UP
2 DOWN
4 LEFT
6 RIGHT
Keyboard Recorder-only
-------- --------------
Enter OFF
5 PLAY
/ F1
* F2
- F3
Keyboard Player-only
-------- --------------
Enter MENU
6 PLAY (there's no separation between PLAY and RIGHT)
