Software for file management on the classic Casio WMP-1 watch

white background casio wmp 1

The Casio WMP 1 was the world's first MP3 watch when it came out in 2000. You can read more about it here

This source code should enable you to use the classic Casio WMP-1 wrist watch on all modern platforms, as its only dependency is libusb. Unfortunately it only works successfully in Linux at the moment:

The interface is a clunky text based interface, but it works reasonably well - some would say better than the original Windows software, although that wouldn't say much :)

For a bit of history and usage, see the old README

Installing

See ./src/README.md.

Additional info

I have kept an old copy of the original software for Windows 98 Casio WAP. Still worked in Windows XP the last time I tried it (using Win98 emulation mode). Do not know about Windows 7 though ... But if you are on the lookout, then this is your lucky day :)

I also have a copy of the original contents of the MMC (including firmware) in case you should somehow manage to fuck it up. Can be found here.
