I think the plan is to be able to create a copy of the firmware that is on the player (which we know works) to use as a backup.
Then this firmware can be safely themed and flashed back on to the player.
Lots of unbranded Rockchip players don't have a backup firmware at all, so an extractor would help a lot of people rescue dead players if they have already flashed the WRONG firmware.
Not sure if "dancemammal" will add any extra bits to the firmware editor, but it would be nice if we could add new features. :wink:
