Location / Home / Embedded / tkcPlayer / Overview
tkcPlayer is a playback application for MP3 and Ogg files on the Sharp Zaurus,
making the Zaurus the worlds first portable Ogg player. MP3 files are great, and
that is why we support them, but Ogg doesn't have any nasty license restrictions,
compresses 10% smaller on average with 50% better quality, and our tests show
it consumes less CPU on the Zaurus by a third, so this should also extend the
battery life.
tkcPlayer is now also available for the Archos PMA4xx, however it plays different
file formats than the version for the Zaurus. Currently it supports MP3, WMA and
WAV for playback. The player that comes by default on the PMA is not very robust
or attractive, and that is where tkcPlayer comes in, check our
screenshots to see the difference.
The Archos support does not add any codecs to the ones that currently come with the
device, it provides a better user interface, features such as "bookmarks" and optional
themes. The codecs listed below are specifically for the Zaurus.
