I've no experience in hacking, but for those of you that do - and I'm hoping you'll be able to work out how to get the Juicebox to play video from SD cards, someone else found the manufacturer: Emsoft

Their website is http://www.emsoftltd.com/products.html

They even allow you to download the source code for the Juice box: http://www.emsoftltd.com/download/mattel/juicebox.tar.gz

For those of us in the UK, Argos are selling this box for GBP 9.99 including the MP3 kit (roughly $15)

OK while looking around in the demo/patch/ there is a swf player, but how do we apply the patch to play the swf flash videos?
hope im not getting to excited!

That seems to be just a program (elf format) included with the patch, all that should be needed to run it is to load it on the JB. I haven't modded mine to load programs from SD or elsewhere, so I can't test.

Don't get your hopes up, though, as it may have nothing to do with Macromedia's Flash.

Anymore luck with getting this flash player installed? How would you install it anyways?

I'm not sure exactly what that swfplayer program is, but it doesn't appear to be intended for the Juicebox as we know it. It's in the wrong format (ELF instead of bFLT), it references shared libraries that aren't present in the Juicebox's romdisk, and the installation script displays a raw image while it's working that has a higher resolution than the Juicebox screen. (The image just contains the text "Updating", so it gives no hint.)

Perhaps this was for Emsoft's in-house development hardware, perhaps it was for a different Emsoft project entirely. I don't see that it is of any possible use to us, with no source.
