It’s a shame rockbox doesn’t support video playback though.
How is stability for you? My 7th gen with about 750gb is pretty unstable, mostly I have a lot of difficulty transferring since the iPod crashes 15gb in all the time.
And ogg and m4a and opus and so many more.
I have an ipod 6th gen runnung rockbox. Its great. If the harddrive dies I’ll replace it with sd-cards and still keep uaing it.
Rockbox is cool, I just wish it was able to replace the base system without touching the UI. Something about it just feels off on an iPod. Even supposedly iPod-accurate themes just feel uncanny.
Does anyone here remember Rockbox? I still have my old Sansa player running it.
Mine is also a Sansa! 😁👍
I have my iPod 5th gen running on RockBox. IMO it’s even better than the stock firmware because it can play flacs.

I even had Doom running on it. The controls were difficult though

Same, someone also added a new battery at some point so I have an awesome weeklong working device. And after rockbox, its even better.
