Here is a new Gmu Beta release for the Dingoo A320. This release comes with some major improvements and bugfixes including:
- Backlight power-off is now functional on the Dingoo (backlight will be turned off when the hold mode is enabled as well as after a configurable amount of time without pressing a button)
- FLAC decoder now comes with meta data tag support
- MP3 decoder does no longer crash Gmu with broken/invalid files
Gmu is highly configurable. It is always worth it to have a look at the README.txt file. Especially if you are having trouble running Gmu, make sure you have read the "Installation" section of the README.txt file.
gmu-0.7.0_BETA3-DINGOO.zip (1.0 MB)
I have added a script called gmu.goo to the archive, which makes it easier to run Gmu on Dingux. It does all the annoying stuff you had to do manually before. You can run that script from the command line or execute it from a file browser.
For those of you using dmenu on the Dingoo, you can easily add a Gmu menu entry to dmenu, by editing dmenu.cfg. Simply add a section like this to the appropriate section of the file:
In case you've extracted the Gmu zip file to some other location, you need to adjust the path accordingly.
Please make sure you are using the latest Dingux kernel. Otherwise the backlight power-off function won't work.
