Furthermore ive tested the fm-radio app from o-hand.com rep. Didnt ever know that it is possible to hear radiio with headset connected. However, I can't see an fm-radio app in the Opened Hand repo from looking at Packages.gz. Um, I dont know where this confusion is coming from, but we at OH have never written an app called fm-radio (or even heard of one). We know nothing about the radio.

Re: [maemo-developers] radio?!
Nokia JUST released an application that activates an FM radio chip in the unit. No, this isn't an April Fools - I'm listening to FM radio on my N800 right now. The application plugs into the desktop, so you have to activate it on the desktop rather than from the application menu. Nokia really kept that one under their hats - kudos. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Good news is that AFAIK the radio uses the V4L2 API so a free rewrite or port of existing code should not be such a big deal.

Re: [maemo-developers] radio?!
For me, it just showed up in the applications manager when I did a refresh. The license seems to be a closed license from Nokia - however, the drivers are all exported to userspace, so I would guess that you could roll your own pretty easily. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

I suspect it has not cleared the legal department and Nokia wanted to put it in tablet owners' hands instead of waiting. There is no reason for such a thing not to be open source, there is absolutely _nothing_ secret here that I could think of... Lawyers, gotta love 'em.

I took your lead, then did some googling. It's a combined Bluetooth and FM stereo on a chip, but uses the TEA5671 as it's FM component. From the block diagram it has seems to have separate antenna inputs, so I'd assume it's not connected. Or maybe the quality is just lower than that cheap camera so Nokia left it disabled ;) [1] - http://www.nxp.com/acrobat_download/literature/9397/75015439.pdf --Paul ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
