bradL Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 So my iPod Video was recently sent to be repaired, it had a bad hard drive and something to do with audio. So they sent back a nice clean refurbished iPod. My old one had marks and dents all over it. I remember some people getting linux to run on them as an alt way of playing music and such. I remember Roxbox or something similiar of that name but back then audio playback wasn't possible. Should I go back and look into Roxbox or did something better come on. Basically what should I do with my iPod Video? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaser48 Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 so did you get the original ipod back or get another? Sounds like in you post you have two ipods in hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah C Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 visit www.ipodstuff.org they have some pretty cool stuff that you can do with an iPod. Nothing new has happened science iPod Linux and rock box but i would recommend installing one of those and then install iboy ( ROM emulator ). :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bakb0ne Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I had rockbox running, and iPodLinux, triple booting.. Primarily for the .ogg support, and the themed interface, nice stuff. The iPod firmware is rather limiting, I really like rockbox. .mpeg support as well, so you don't have to get your movies from apple, necessarily.
