Cron job on Rockbox & FLAC recording

[Alex Mandel]

Sorry, I'm new to Rockbox and not even sure what the base code 
originates from, but I was curious about the feasibility of 2 things.

1. Cron - Time based events, assuming you leave the device on all the 
time hooked up to a power source can you set it to record at specified 
intervals for a certain amount of time. Something like a cron triggered 
script.

2. FLAC Recording - I'm assuming this is a constraint of the chipsets 
but  is it possible that any of the devices will have the ability to 
record to FLAC.


I'm just looking for a conceptual idea of how either of these things 
might be possible.

Thanks,
Alex
