Doses on the Nintendo DS

Hey what's up! I've been reading about i-doser and i'm willing to try it out but there's something keeping me from it and it's the fact that i'd like to administer any dose at any time without having to use a computer to do it (and by any i do mean any, the audio cd only has 4 doses). I've read that conversion to mp3 is basically useless so that's out of the question. What occured to me is to use my nintendo DS to administer the doses. How hard would it be to write a homebrew application for the DS that would be able to play the doses without any sort of compression (basically the i-doser application but for the nintendo ds). Does anything like this exist?

Thanks!

i dunno, but if you can figure out how to make that work i know a few of us in this forum will definately be out buying a ds the second you get it to work

we're all counting on you

PSP homebrew

Actually, a cool guy named Psilocybeing made a nice PSP homebrew app based on the other famous brainwave program, BrainWave Generator. I won't explain how to install it if you don't know how .. Then you'd better go elsewhere.

Anyway, this was just to inform you of this app, nothing else. It's sort of like a portable brainwave thing. :-)
Just a nifty little application I made earlier today I thought I would release. It's based on the program called Brain Wave Generator, that uses binaural beats to influence the state our mind is in. Our brains tick over at different levels during different states of mind, such as being in REM sleep, or working a hard day at the office. Using binaural beats(which is basically applying a slightly different tone to each ear, the difference of which is the waves you wish to induce in your brain, more on this lower down) this program will load an editable preset via a menu, and then play out the preset via the PSPs headphones.

Here's a little more on the different brainwaves, and what kind of states they appear in.
Delta 0.5Hz - 4Hz Deep sleep
Theta 4Hz - 8Hz Drowsiness (also first stage of sleep)
Alpha 8Hz - 14Hz Relaxed but alert
Beta 14Hz - 30Hz Highly alert and focused

You MUST use headphones for this to be effective, as otherwise the sound will just mix up and the difference by the time they get to your ears will be negligible.

You might think this kind of stuff works, you might not. I just thought I would get to grips with the PSPs audio functions by making a mock-up of BWG.

See, that's exactly what i'm talking about. I would be able to code a DS homebrew of the i-doser application, but i would definitely need either the pc application's source code or some sort of documentation as to how the application processes the dose files. If anyone has some insight, please post it or PM me.

I-doser is just a certain mod of SBAGen, just use that if you can.
