Title: Best Mp3 Player For Sl5500 Sharprom
Post by: lpetroni on August 15, 2005, 08:37:35 pm
I'm doing my research & testing but would like to receive some advice about what you consider the best MP3 Player for the SL5500.

It must cover the following requirements:
-----------------------------------------------
- compatible with SharpROM v3.1.3 (for this I mean an .ipk that one can just install and run immediately - no 1000 lines of configuration commands or a looooong list of additional .ipks and dependencies necessary).
- must have a GUI
- can read ID3 tags and list files by artist, genre, song, etc
- more than one playlist
- store the position in the current playlist when app is finished
- plain MP3 (no AAC / wma / etc...)


Not mandatory but it would be cool:
-----------------------------------------
- EQ
- display art cover


So far I have found only two options that cover part of my requirements:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- tkcPlayer (it's my choice for now)
- MediaPlayer


Any suggestions??

Thanks!

mybe XMMS?
But, the best player for Sharp ROM, that I saw, was in Qtopia ROM 2.12...
But... Qtopia ROM have some troubless... etc.

Zaurus (SL-5500), have poor hardware, even for mp3 listing while I am buying SL-C1000... Only Personal Tool for System administrator... IMHO.

You can try tkcPlayer (but it's not for me... and poor audio types support...).
XMMS - crushes sometimes...

Write yours?
