  • Do any of you use an MP3 player?
    I have 2 Sansa Clip Zips, 3 Sansa E260s and 3 FIIO M3Ks. All run Rockbox (rockbox.org) which lets you save multiple bookmarks across multiple books. It also supports large capacity microSD cards. No bluetooth though. Source: 10 months ago
  • How to install rockbox on sansa connect?
    I've been trying to install through usb but I saw on the official rockbox.org page that it isn't supported yet. I do have an micro sd if that helps to resolve this? I would like to know how to install rockbox on the sansa connect. Source: about 1 year ago
  • iPod gaming at school
    If you go to rockbox.org and install the firmware on your iPod, the Gameboy emulator is pre-installed. All you have to do is open a Gameboy ROM in the file browser to play. Source: about 1 year ago
  • update on A306 low bass issue: having contacted Sony support they have confirmed that they have not officially acknowledged the issue yet
    Note: using Sony WH-1000XM4 connected with the cable and my NW-A45 was a UK model that I bypassed the volume limit thing. (rockbox.org). Source: about 1 year ago

  • So I have an iPod. but how do I install banshee? I enter yum install banshee and it says this command has to be run with superuser privileges. I enter sudo yum install banshee and it just doesn't work.
    Hijacking the thread to recommend looking at Rockbox, a free and open source firmware replacement for a lot of DAPs. It supports all kinds of codecs and you can drop your music straight onto the filesystem, no need for syncing through libipod, Amorak or what have you. It's easy to install and remove and allows for dual booting between Rockbox and the og firmware. Source: over 2 years ago
  • FiiO M3K Review – A Pocketable High Quality Audio Player (2018)
    This is why Rockbox exists, which is available for the M3K: https://rockbox.org. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago
