From: Thomas Heuving <heuving_at_gmx.de>
Date: Sat, 20 May 2006 19:25:42 +0200 After several month I installed the newest daily build of rockbox on my Archos Recoder V1. I wanted to try the new tagcache. Here are my impressions: 1. My old configuration-file didn't work as expected. THe volume now can only be set in a range from -?? to +12. Before it was in a range from 0 to 100. My old setting of 80 was interpeted as 12, way to loud. First I could not hear anything, after lowering the volume a 12 was shown as before but now the volume was on the highest possible level - way to loud. There should be an explicit warning about this! Can I get the old behaviour back through some option which I didn't encounter? 2. I hadn't noticed but my wps wasn't loaded because now it has to reside in .rockbox/wps!? 3. Tagcache In short: It doesn't work on my box. First, settings like General Settings -> Playback -> Tag cache General Settings -> System -> Disk -> Directory Cache are not available. I tried to build the tagcache on my box (80G HD, 70G are filled), using General Settings -> Playback -> Force tag cache update as described in the wiki. It ran for more than 1 and a half hour before I decided to stop the attempt (the wiki says it would take 5-10 minutes!). Afterwards I couldn't start my box. On startup there was a message regarding the tagcache, the disk spun up for some 10 seconds and afterwards the unit showed the bootscreen until I shut the recorder down. Only solution was to delete all files related to the tagcache (luckily I hadn't flashed!). Besides of that I use the new version (CVS-060518) without any other problems. I hadn't updated for some time because there were reports about problems with loading of the batteries. I have the impression that the runtime now is better than in the old version, but had not the time to look into that.
