Re: Toll Booth and junk (was Re(fcc): TI-H: Radio/In...)


Whatever, apparently Grant has the fat and everything for the player 
worked out...

Why would you use your own thing over ID3? ID3 is not difficult at all 
to decode and I don't see anything better than that...

I guess I'll make a nice || GUI for it for win and KDE. Jon can make a 
serial version for winNt if he wants to...

Grant, do you have buttons plotted out too? I see that you have a guide 
to programming it, but do you have your own AVR procedure complete with 
the fat/id3 stuff/buttons? Buttons, you know like 
play/stop/pause/next/prev....?
