Rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for a growing number of MP3 players. Rockbox aims to be considerably more functional and efficient than your device's stock firmware while remaining easy to use and customizable. Rockbox is written by users, for users.
Rockbox for the iPod 4G, Color, Nano and Video models all have a wide range of codec support - MP3, Ogg Vorbis, Musepack, FLAC, AAC, ALAC, AC3 and WavPack are all supported in Rockbox. Additional music playback features include gapless and crossfading, as well as a five-band parametric equalizer to fine-tune sound output. iPods also get ReplayGain support for volume level normalization, and a large number of plugins, including games, applications, and "demos" - have some fun when you've got some free time to kill, open files with the text viewer, make use of the stopwatch, view some JPEG photos, or turn your iPod into a desktop clock. On-The-Go playlist creation and adjustment, full file bookmarking support and much more.
Additional features offered with Rockbox, not included in the default Apple firmware, include OGG and FLAC support, gapless playback, crossfades, photo playback, games, and custom themes.
These are automated daily builds of the code in CVS. They contain all the latest features. They may also contain bugs and/or undocumented changes.
