Re: Mp3, Ogg Players on 5.3
You might want to also take a look at the Neuros (www.neurosaudio.com), I haven't had any problems playing ogg files on mine and some people have posted to the sites forums about having gotten it to work under Linux and FreeBSD, though I haven't gotten around to trying to set mine up yet.

There are two versions of their firmware--the one it ships with which allows you to use its music manager software (which, btw, isn't available for BSD anyway) and there is the UMS firmware, which makes the device appear as a thumb drive to the operating system with the FAT file system.

As I understand it (I welcome correction!), iRiver are the only ones whose player does Ogg out the box. Unfortunately, it does not act as a umass device and so requires the funky Windows drivers.

Mp3, Ogg Players on 5.3
Hello, I'm thinking about buying a portable ogg player for xmas but i can't seem to get clear info from the various shop sites. Does anyone know a player which works with FreeBSD 5.3? Can I just buy anyone I want and then transfer files across as if it were usb storage or do these players have special transfer software? I've seen that most of the players only come with windows software, so I don't want to be stuck with a player that won't talk to my os.
