KRio is a KDE graphical interface to the Rio utility developed by The
|
|
|
|
Snowblind Alliance, which can be used for uploading and downloading files
|
|
|
|
to/from the Diamond Rio, a popular portable MP3 player.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
KRio can do the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Upload/download files to/from Diamond Rio
|
|
|
|
* List Rio contents
|
|
|
|
* Delete files from Rio
|
|
|
|
* Initialise Rio
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that while the Rio Manager software that comes with the player does not
|
|
|
|
allow you to upload non-MP3 files or download files from the device, it is
|
|
|
|
possible with this utility. For non-MP3 files, Diamond Rio can be used as
|
|
|
|
a portable and robust file storage system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
KRio accesses the hardware directly, therefore it needs to be run as root.
|
|
|
|
You also need to know your parallel port's address - standard port addresses
|
|
|
|
on PCs are 0x378, 0x3BC and 0x278.
