I have 6 buttons of the HU mapped to the 6 buttons of my archos. Simple isn't it? So the protocol and implementation is very very simple. I have added 4 more actions: key release (for key repeat implementation) pause (when switching to tuner) resume (when switching from tuner) and power off (when switching off the HU) the status display is also very simple: I display exactly the same than on the archos lcd (scrolling included). I dynamically change the displayed line according to the cursor position. I also transmit track number and elapsed time separatly. There is only one poll code, and the rockbox decides what to update by having a header. There are actually 2 only possible updates: display and timing. my code is not hard to port on recorders. it can be also used on generic external lcd display. This implementation is the simplest and the most powerful because I have access to all rockbox functionalities. I have a power transistor missing for implementing power control from the PIC. haven't modded my archos yet for auto power-on. Hope it won't be too complex. _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox Received on 2004-05-27 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
