Red freeze is definitely reduced for me. The only problems I had today was when FF/REW, which is probably related to the other problem. I have seen no red freeze and no silent play for a couple of days now. Only difference for me is that since the weather has warmed up here in northern England, I am now carrying my archos on my belt loop rather than in my jacket pocket, so I don't know if that has made much difference. It certainly seemed a little better in that location even a couple of weeks ago. The archos original firmware rarely had a problem with skipping/locking in any position though. No doubt the weather will fade again and I will get my jacket out again soon to do some more testing ;-) I posted a patch to fix battery charging display for FM a bit ago, but this has not been applied yet. Is there going to be a purge on catching up with these little bits at some point? Not a major fix in this case, but would be nice to add in. I can re-post the patch if need be. -- Mike HoldenReceived on 2003-04-03 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
