also extracts the song name of the file selected to play and sends it the Ethernut which
displays it on the LCD. The buttons connected to the Ethernut result in the sending of
messages to the server program. The messages can invoke the actions of play, pause,
stop, previous or next, allowing control of the current track or selection of new tracks.
Concluding the thesis, the final product that was produced was a fully functional MP3
player. It can play MP3 files of any bit rate up to and including 250kbbs and any sample
rate. The quality of the sound that is produced is of CD quality and no extra noise on top
of what was recorded is added by the player. The use of Winamp as the method for
creating the play list provides a familiar and very flexible method and the buttons on the
player allow for responsive control of the track play back and track selection. The
implementation of the LCD allows for clear identification of tracks and song names
from the play list. Overall, the player is very enjoyable to use.
