Hey people.
I like the look of Rockbox for the iPod, but before I get an iPod (80GB) and install it, I want to know if Rockbox will allow me to watch Divx and Xvid files on the device?
If it wasnt for Apple not playing Divx, I would have got an iPod by now.
As it is, I am sticking with my Creative Zen Vision M till it dies!
Just wondering if Rockbox does Divx/Xvid without re-encoding!

To be brutally honest, unless you are using rockbox on an old player or really need support for a certain music file format like ogg.
I used it on my iRiver H140 and it was simply superb, but that's a dedicated music player with a monochrome screen. Rockbox added loads of cool features and it's UI looked good.
On more modern players it doesn't have the same effect for me. It's not such a great leap from some of the default firmwares now and it's quickly being left behind in terms of useability and looks.
