DetailsI reported this as a pontential bug a while back but it got no attention, and it's a potentially important feature to add. If the hard drive fill while recording, the rockbox player unwittingly ignores this fact, writes up to the point where the drive is full, and has no space to "close" the file and save it. You wind up with a corrupted wave file which is really a pain after an hour or two of recording only to lose the file.
I suggest a feature by which the player keeps an eye on how much disc space is left, and if there is a predetermined "safety" limit left (however much is needed to close the file), the recording automatically cuts off. A similar, but potentially more difficult feature would be the same concept but for battery life being low instead of hard drive space. Thanks |
This task depends upon
