PictureFlow (Coverflow) on a Rockbox iPod 5.5G

This video shows a proof-of-concept, that PictureFlow (http://code.google.com/p/pictureflow/), which in turn is a reimplementation of Coverflow, can run on a iPod Video 5.5G running Rockbox. The original PictureFlow was written for Qt(opia) by Ariya Hidayat, but I ported the code to a Rockbox plugin.
The code needs some polish, before I dare to release it.

For your information:

The plugin is in the Rockbox Subversion now.

It's still a "demo", but shows the potential.

that's pretty useless though. i have that but it doesn't connect the album art to the song so wat's the point?

[BlackPawLethium]

this wont work for 5g?

[DemonKaiser93]

@INFetcTED actually it does, just put in the setting to connect with WPS directly, wath it does is that after selecting an album it shows the tracklist and plays thye music

@doctaGeorge YOU NEED TO HAVE A JPG IMAGE WITH THE NAME ¨folder.jpg´OF THE COVER IN THE FOLDER OF THE ALBUM FOR IT TO WORK

HAIGH FAIVE!

[INFetcTED]

Alright. This is a good demo, but it doesn't connect to the tracklisting. If it did, which in the near future it might be able to, that would be great.

@robsimac Not really. Jailbreaking is when you open up an existing software, this is entirely replacing it.

[robsimac]
