FS#5130 - SID codec based on tinysid
|
DetailsI'm uploading this patch on behalf of the author, Rainer Sinsch.
The codec is working in realtime on both Coldfire and ARM targets. The only real issue is track running time - currently all tracks are hard-coded to display a 2 minute running time, and they never stop - you need to manually press NEXT to go to the next track. |
This task depends upon

Any idea how to implement navigating through subsongs?
even on winamp there isn't a length or seeking capabilites
and SID files are ment to be looped.
2:00 minutes is a bit too much concidering the files are not over 6KB
ITS A BIG DAY...MAYBE WE WILL SEE [MOD] soon!!!
I think the only solution to track lengths is to somehow incorporate this database into Rockbox. The codec can then calculate the MD5 checksum of the .sid file, and stop playing after the specified length of time.
subsongs are more troublesome - Rockbox doesn't have a concept of multiple tracks within a single file.
maybe there's a calculation you can do before playing the file to measure the length of the track?
Now, a bug-report: I seem to be getting only "half" of the songs' channels on my Iriver H120, or at least, not the entire output. For a song like Galway_Martin/Arkanoid.sid from the HVSC I only hear the background chords, not the actual melody.
