Date: Mon, 15 May 2006 12:13:43 -0500 The playback on H1x0 is more stable (for me) than it was pre-rebuild.

As for playback, this page shows known bugs, and which ones are currently considered critical. http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SoftwareCodecPlayback On 5/15/06, gl <gl_at_ntlworld.com> wrote: > > > OK, quick comment.
