\item Record to WAV (uncompressed) or MP3pro format!\\

\item Interfacing with other USB devices (like cameras) or 2 player games over USB\\
-The USB system demands that there is a master that talks to a slave. The Jukebox can only serve as a slave, as most other USB devices such as cameras can. Thus, without a master no communication between the slaves can take place. If that is not enough, we have no ways of actually controlling the communication performed over USB since the USB circuit in the Jukebox is strictly made for disk{}-access and does not allow us to play with it the way we'd need for any good communication to work.

-The mp3{}-decoding hardware can only play MP3. We cannot make it play other sound formats.
-\item Converting OGG{}-{\textgreater}MP3 \\
-The mp3{}-decoding hardware cannot decode OGG. It can be reprogrammed, but there is too little memory for OGG and we have no documentation on how to program the MAS' DSP. Doing the conversion with the CPU is impossible, since a 12MHz SH1 is far too slow for this daunting task.

\item Multi{}-band (or graphic) equaliser\\
-We cannot access information for that kind of visualisation from the MP3 decoding hardware.
-\item Support other filesystems than FAT32 (likeNTFS or ext2 or whatever)!\\
-No. Rockbox needs to support FAT32 since it can only start off a FAT32 partition (since that is the only way the ROM can load it), and adding support for more file systems will just take away valuable ram for unnecessary features. You can partition your Jukebox fine, just make sure the first one is FAT32 and then make the other ones whatever file system you want. Just don't expect Rockbox to understand them.
