이상하게 아이팟을 위한 docking station이 HIFI기기에서 곧잘 출시되더라니...

락박스라는 O/S를 깔면 아이팟에서도 FLAC, APE재생이 가능하다고 하네요.



이렇게 되면, Flash Memory 가격 인하 주도권을 가지는 애플사만 호재일지도 모르겠다는 생각이 드네요.

락박스로 인터넷에서 검색해 보니, 그간 자신이 사용했던 MP3의 O/S가 한심스럽다는 글도 보이고 버릴려고 했던 HDD형 MP3를 다시 꺼내어 주옥처럼 사용하고 있다는 글도 있네요.



아래는 관련사이트에서 퍼온 링크입니다. 참고하세요.



Rockbox는 2001년 부터 개발되어온 공개된 mp3 대체 firmware입니다. - 한마디로 사용자를 위한 firmware라고 생각하시면 됩니다.



Rockbox를 사용하면 좀더 많은 기능(특히 많은 게임을 지원)과 사용자 편집 (배경화면/재생화면)이 가능한 인터페이스를 지원합니다.



특히 청각장애자들을 위해 메뉴를 음성으로 안내하는 기능이 지원됩니다.











Rockbox is an open source replacement firmware for 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 has been in development since 2001, and receives new features, tweaks and fixes each day to provide you with the best possible experience on your MP3 player. A major goal of Rockbox is to be simple and easy to use, yet remain very customizable and configurable. We believe that you should never need to go through a series of menus for an action you perform frequently. We also believe that you should be able to configure almost anything about Rockbox you could want, pertaining to functionality.



Another top priority of Rockbox is audio playback quality - Rockbox, for most models, includes a wider range of sound settings than that device's original firmware. A lot of work has been put into making Rockbox sound the best it can, and improvements are constantly being made. All models have access to a large number of plugins, including many games, applications, and graphical "demos".



You can load different configurations quickly for different purposes (e.g. a large font for in your car, different sound settings for at home). You can even customize your "While Playing Screen" to display only and exactly what you want to see when you're playing music. In addition, Rockbox features a very wide range of languages, and all supported models also have the ability to talk to you - menus can be voiced and filenames spelled out or spoken.
