Hands Off Slow Sd Cards

[Mr. Anderson]

The new firmware supports 2gig.

​

As in allready excisting firmware? Up comming one? Enough tease

​

As in: We don't have it, but some devs have

Can't be a speed issue, seriously no divx movie should be 16MBIT/sec cause that's the speed every, even the slowest SD, and for sure the sandisk ones, can deliver, 2MB/sec.

​

Exactly. The transfer rates required by the software on the GP2X is far exceeded by the bandwidth of the cards.

Silly devs! share!~

 

[Mr. Anderson]

they won't. Think of it like this:

As a children you aren't allowed to use a sharp knife.

As an user you aren't allowed to use an untested firmware.

 

[god_at_hell]

i don't think the devs have it

i read a posting of Anna on gp2x.com where she wrote, that 2gb-cards will be supported in the next firmware-release ...

 

[Mr. Anderson]

well at least they have some version of the HH os, and that supports 2GB SD cards

​

If I'm not terribly mistaken, HH is direct hardware, meaning there is no OS. Just means they have to do everything themselves so yeah, you can do anything then as long as you know how to.

 

[Mr. Anderson]

right, I don't know if it has a gui, but at least it should have a command line, making it an os in my eyes

I bought the 512 sandisk only because after in store rebate and $20 dollar mail in it was $30 US. I had $20 dollars instore credit from buying equipment for work (shh don't tell). So I left with a 512mb card for $10 US. It's still frustating that the speed wasn't listed anywhere and the fast sandisk card was over twice as much.

they won't. Think of it like this:

LOL! I love this analogy

 

[Drak]

What about 4gb support??? I got this 4gb laying around waiting to be used!

[/endsarcasm] Ya rite, like I would get a 4gb SD when I could get 5 or 6 of them for the same price

 

[Cellsplitter]

I guess I'll just sit and wait for my GP2x then
In the meantime I'll just fill my SD card with emulators and roms etc. :lol:
