the ingenic chip is constantly being updated and improved and apparently runs a linux base, according to the guy that runs pasen OOchristien00

so knob, take a look at the ingenic web site as ther is quite alot of info on these chips and tools etc.

the future for these chips looks very interesting.

Damn, and i thought the Meizu M6 is good. :shock: Anyway, i love how it sounds and that will never change. :P

Unfortunately the Onda players are still looking like cheap iphone knock-offs, that's the only thing that stopped me from buying the VX858 as it was cheaper than the M6SL and had a bigger screen.

The Pasen or is it Parsons? F10 with RK2706 and PlayFX

mp4nation have their own player new using the imgenic chip, 4gb player and with firmware updates according to raz

only $86 and available

looks a good deal to get into the ingenic player market - did i mention firmware updates available also

[knob]

Just looked at the video review, very impressive player, really good price, Raz is gonna sell buckets of these.

If these players turn out to be moddable then I'm definately sold!

Wow!, at last a new Rockchip player that looks worth getting and that really supports album art.



Its a copy of the Teclast T50, so should be a cracker :wink:

[makd511]

good player and i got one, rockchip still floundering on the basics bit getting there .. album art on this is embedded or in folder with same name and is full width 240x240
( and those are my images i created for mp4nations s:flo player .. bragging here but i am proud of them as they truly represent the player interface)

This is the updated version of that image



good player and has wolfson chip also and the touch screen is dual touch ala touch style . . very good payer and and advancement for rockchip, a few bugs but updates are thick and fast

not a copy of thr T50 .. exactly the same as the T50, same factory etc but available in 8GB T50 is not ( as yet)

Is the album art really that big? :shock:

[makd511]

yep, album art is, 240x240, full width of the player - excellent and proved and better than the meizu as it will also read embedded art, meizu can not

yet to do a full test as i am waiting on the player back

Looks like these (RK27xx) are starting to appear in unbranded form.
The good news is it should be possible to back up the existing firmware with the help of the "rkusb.tag" file to access the hidden partition. (thanks manderin1)

There are some bargains around on these players and the prices are no more than the old RK26xx series players.

This one is an unbranded version of the KNC 700 player:-



This one is a new Rockchip copy of the Onda vx747, pity it's so much alike as folks are gonna get confused as the real Onda vx747 uses an Ingenics chip which is a different chip altogether.



available from http://www.tinydeal.com

Anyone buying these unbranded players should take a copy of their firmware straight away to keep as a backup.

Hmm. makes me wonder if the old RK26xx didn't have an hidden partition somewhere, the old .RFW and the new .RKW are similar packed, and get unpacked during the update process, is there a rkusb.tag for older RK26xx Rockchips?
I guess only Rockchip can answer that question. :roll:
