C1000/3x00 General discussions / How To Play Ogg Music File On C3000?

« on: May 18, 2005, 03:04:49 pm »

I found out that on my new Zaurus SL-C3000, the music player can only play MP3 format. I am wondering if there is way to play OGG format? 'coz I heard that the sound quality of OGG is better than MP3. Thanks!

I may be slow and the only one who doesn't inherently know this, but I think it's worth saying that mplayer supports ogg vorbis without the need for plugins.  I figured that out while following the below thread and researching lastest packages and such.  The package mentioned in the post referenced below not only makes a darn spiffy video player, but the same player supports ogg vorbis.

possible bug report

I get an occasional reset when using Beam Receive.  I haven't tried hard to reproduce it and it only seems to reset the Qt interface, not a full unit reboot.

Most recently, had just changed it to start receiving a file when it did it's trick.  I've also canceled the file transfer from the sending host before attempting to cancel from the receiving host.  That caused a Qt reset.

I'm also using the tetsu 18a kernel.

Other than that, I really dig this new rom.  Thanks for the awesome work!

I tried the 1.0.1-6 plugin with the Cacko rom and couldn't get it to work.  The file date is ~3 years old, so it didn't surprise me much that it didn't work.

You can use TkcPlayer from TheKompany.rom (not free), or I heard that you can use the old mediaplayer from SL5xxx with the libvorbis (not tested by myself)

Anyone happen to know if tkcPlayer works for C3000?  Their product page seems to indicate that they have a version for the Cxxx/6000, but don't specifically say the either the 3000 or 1000 (Cxxx vs Cxxxx)

I have a potentially stupid question...

Does anyone know of a CF wireless card that does WPA?

I could have sworn that I've seen a 802.11b card somewhere that used WPA (not CF), but I'm not sure if the CFII bus can handle it, so not being entirely familar with the hw standard, it may not be possible.

Anyone?

Ok...googled my own question

[a href=\"http://www.wi-fi.org/OpenSection/certified_products.asp?TID=2]http://www.wi-fi.org/OpenSection/certified...ducts.asp?TID=2[/url]

filter products by Compact Flash
check 802.11b
check All WPA
search

Still didn't see any that people had reported previous success with though. :/

C1000/3x00 Hardware / What Case Do You Have For Sl-c3000?

« on: February 11, 2005, 06:40:10 pm »

Anyone have any knowledge as to whether these will work or not for the 3k?  The dimensions look like it would be within a mm or two short on length.  The pictures don't seem to show well enough if the SD slot would be covered or not, etc.  I suppose that is the kind of stuff that I could live with though.  I would be more concerned if it covered the CF slot.

Josh,

FWIW, I've got the apps working on my C3000.

...

So maybe try another one.

HTH,

Ok...I finally figured it out.  Problem between chair and keyboard. :/  Somehow in my migration of files from various computer systems onto my SD card, a dirctory name with a space got into the mix.  I know that this can usually be escaped out when calling it in various *nix, but the Z seems to use the Yen symbol as an escape rather than ^ or \ (not sure if that is part of the problem or if the ipkg program just can't cope).  At any rate, I changed the directory that was holding all of my ipk's on the SD card from having a space to a dash and all works well now (zaurus files to zaurus-files).  I finally discovered this issue by using the comand line ipkg rather than the GUI.  And I feel appropriately dumb now, because I was being overly reliant upon the GUI tools and one of the reasons for buying the Z was my many years experience with *nix.  Grrrr.....

I installed all the files I have listed, and it worked straight up for most of the apps (KA,KO,KP,KT for example)

However, for OM/Pi and I think one other, it would go to load and do the crash image as you said.

I fixed this by installing openssl, which a couple of the apps need:

In trying to install this suite on my C3k I keep getting the following error:

"The filename of this package includes character this application can't handle.  Please change the filename and retry install."

I initially did a bunch of reading in this and other forums and thought the issue might be the ipks that I was attempting to install might be for ROMs other than the Sharp ROM, but ipks that specifically claim to be for the Sharp ROM yield the exact same error.

Is this something you've seen and solved?  Any thoughts or solutions you could share would be helpful.

TIA,
Josh
