Hi,

is there any chance of anyone being interested in making a lightweight java version (for mobile phones with J2ME) of foobar2000?? Now that I've upgraded from Siemens A55 to SE Z610i, I've really come to miss foobar2000, since I can now use my mobile for listening to music as well...the native media player isn't that great.

I myself wouldn't be of much use, except for visual design, I know basic programming (Asm, C, Lua, PHP), but I probably wouldn't be of much use anyway T_T

So far I haven't found a decent media player with support for various formats (and foobar2000 is nearly unbeatable when it comes to supported formats ^^, woot!) so I just thought I'd see what response a topic like this would receive.

IMHO, foobar2000 basic player along with a plugin API for various formats support would be the most important. Other features could be added later on.

Mod formats, MPC, OGG, TTA, would be truly amazing ^^

P.S. Constructive comments and suggestions are always welcome!

no, because not anyone has access to the source of foobar. the only chance is for this to happen is when the author of foobar2000 is interessted in such a thing.

Crap! So the only chance of a decent player is to start from scratch T_T............maybe I'll go over to some java forum, see if anyone would be interested, although I doubt it...

You could write a music player in Java. It would have nothing to do with foobar, but you're welcome to do it.

foobar2000 is implemented in C++ on Win32. Using its source code as starting point for a player on J2ME is about as useful as taking a map of London along on a trip to Paris. In other words: there is nothing in the source code of foobar2000 that you could reuse in Java on J2ME.
