Well, I have not kept up on mp3/wav/<audio fil> portable players, |
| 2 |
so your input as to a Gentoo friendly device is welcome. A miniture |
| 3 |
video screen is not necessary, and keeping costs down is desired. |
| 4 |
Google for this said device leaves me with this scant choices: |

Sandisk has the Sansa Clip + |

I definately need something simple; able to copy <audio> files |
| 13 |
from a gentoo system over to the device with ease. I thinking of a robust |
| 14 |
application (gui) that runs on my gentoo box for file format changes, then |
| 15 |
easy copy to the device, in folders, playlists, management etc etc. |
| 16 |
Support for many various audio file formats is a plus, either in the |
| 17 |
management (gui) api or on the device, natively. |

Possibly a custom cover for a Rasberry PI or something |
| 22 |
commercial or <?> is fine. |

I also have a large collection of audio recordings I want to |
| 26 |
be able to put into folders on the device, that are not |
| 27 |
commercial. |
