Would that be an idea? I'm afraid this would be a lot of work and I don't expect a lot of output. I have been seeing the strangely high power consumption on a few different scenarios now. Furthermore, I imagine (since the problem IS in software) that it could be very hard to measure with "normal" equipment. If the power consumption is normal for most of the time, but very high for a tenth of second every second/tick, you won't be able to measure it with a multi meter. ~lImbus Received on 2006-06-06 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
