I've compiled it with the following Format Support:
It's controlled via a series of shell scripts. But, this allows it to play music in the background while you do other things (read, play chess, etc). I've tested it a bit, and as long as the bitrate is pretty low, you won't see any skipping. Otherwise, it may skip for a split second when you turn the page.
To Install
There are 2 versions, one for SD/MMC and one for Compact Flash. - Extract the 3 folders to the root of your memory card.
- Place all your music in the mp3 directory
- Browse to the Music folder on your iLiad
- Select "Start MPD and update Playlist"
From here, you can start playing. Basic controls are on the main screen, Fast forward and volume controls are in the "Player Controls" directory. You can choose any song in the Playlist directory to play.
I'm aware that the volume controls may not work correctly. It is set correctly in the MPD program, but the iLiad doesn't seem to care about that. Also, when you add or delete songs to your mp3 directory and need to update the playlist, you will need to select "Start MPD and update Playlist" twice.
I've included two royalty free songs http://incompetech.com/. Also, the icons are from the Tango Icon Library.

But both applications do not work for me.
(Do you have your iLiad back now?)
