Convert the audio files before you copy them to the FR. The bad quality is caused of that pulseaudio and the openmoko-mediaplayer uses near to 100% cpu time. I converted some mp3 to mono 64kbps, they sound good.And cpu usage is around 60%. Here a little script: #!/bin/bash # execute it in a folder where the tracks are. First argument is to make files different to others. (May ID3-Tags are deleted. I used TagTool to create new Tags [from Filename].) for fff in *.mp3; do echo $fff lame "$fff" -b 64 -m m -o -S "/home/username/$1 - $fff" done
