What is Rockbox?

Rockbox offers an alternative to the host device's operating system firmware (in many cases without removing the original firmware) which provides a plug-in architecture for adding various enhancements and functionality to DAPs which are not present in the original OS. Enhancements include PDA functionality, applications, utilities, and games. Rockbox can also retrofit video playback functionality onto DAPs first released in mid-2000. Rockbox also includes a voice-driven user-interface suitable for operation by blind and visually impaired users.

Released under the GNU General Public License, Rockbox is free software.

Basically, Rockbox is a third party software that can be used as the OS for many different players. Many people like Rockbox because it offers many new features compared with default firmware from various manufacturers.

Currently, Rockbox for Meizu players is still under development. You will find the latest developments here under our Meizu Rockbox forums.
