forked from len0rd/rockbox
Fork of rockbox tailored for ipod classic
Instead of calling the lame executable use libmp3lame directly. As result, this simplifies the prerequisites for creating voice clips for Archos devices to putting the library in the system's search path (Windows: put libmp3lame.dll in the search path or the same folder RockboxUtility.exe is located in. Linux: install the library using your systems package manager) and configuration. This creates a notable encoding speedup on Windows (around factor 6 on my test setup) and a small speedup on Linux (around factor 1.2). The implemenatation currently has the following limitations: - Only enabled on Windows and Linux. On OS X installing the correct dylib is a bit nontrivial, so using the old command line based method is still in use for now. - The encoder parameters are currently hardcoded to use the same values the build system uses. git-svn-id: svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk@31634 a1c6a512-1295-4272-9138-f99709370657 |

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
