The archos recorder build has tipped over the limit for size, and now the

The tipping point was commit bd6e6ed but the code has been growing
steadily so I wouldn't say this particular commit is any more responsible
than others before it.
Still, we need to fix this somehow. Maybe someone could take a look at
recent features and decide if some of them might be disabled for the
recorder?
Other suggestions?
As I understood from some brief discussion about this on IRC,
it can also be fixed by creating a bootloader for the archoses.
(I don't know all of the technical details though).
A bootloader should still fit in the available space for a very long time,
there will be no need to cut features for archos rockbox.
With kind regards,

There is that suggestion, or we could just drop support for HWCODEC
completely... considering so few developers even have the AJBR (and
fewer use it on a regular basis) what does keeping it around give us?
Plus there is nobody maintaining it.
We have said keep it running until it becomes too much of a maintainance
burden. At the point where we need to artificially remove/exclude
features on a per-target basis, this point is reached IMO.
Best regards.
