Ali's M7103 cpu Pm splitter
 

I have a hitachi dmp860 mp3 player which also contains an Ali's CPU, I used the isp tool 0.96 to backup pm.bin from a working dmp860 but i could not program it, it says "Invalid Filename" and if i use mptool, it need the firmware which has .cab extension unfortunately i cannot find the splitter or converter.If someone has the firmware or spliter or any other way of flashing the player please inform me.
Thanks

no one has any information or solution.I bet lolita has some information, it would be very helpful if he can share.

anyone please post something

I have a coby mp3 player that uses an ALi chipset. From the research I've done on these chipsets the firmware tools will allow you to take a binary dump of the entire firmware. The tools that program the firmware expect a different format however. The ISP tool will allow you to program the firmware but it seems to want a small section of the binary at a time rather than the entire dump. I cant exactly say how this works because I am unsure.

These is another tool usually included called Factory4.exe. This tool will program a firmware onto ALi devices however it expects the firmware to be a cab archive with each section of the firmware clearly defined in it. This link has some very useful information about the process.

Another thing to note is there seems to be different versions of the ALi chip. There is a M5661 and a M7108 chip it appears, as well as other variants in the respective series. Both of these chips require slightly different ISPtools to be able to program them as well.

I hope this information helps you.
