Date: Mon, 10 May 2004 15:36:00 -0500 On my archos I have my folders arranged as albums. There are times when I would like to listen to a particular album in sequence. Is there a patch that someone has or some easy fix that can allow me to play a folder by track sequence? -----Original Message----- From: rockbox-bounces_at_cool.haxx.se [mailto:rockbox-bounces_at_cool.haxx.se]On Behalf Of rockbox-request_at_cool.haxx.se Sent: Monday, May 10, 2004 12:44 PM To: rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se Subject: Rockbox Digest, Vol 4, Issue 34 Send Rockbox mailing list submissions to rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to rockbox-request_at_cool.haxx.se You can reach the person managing the list at rockbox-owner_at_cool.haxx.se When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Rockbox digest..."

Can it be installed in a way that is based on an existing cvs repository? We surely want to be able to check out older versions of rockbox.

We are aware of SVN. Check the list of contributors... We did however go with CVS now to get this transition as smooth as possible. We may switch to Subversion at a later date. -- Daniel Stenberg -- http://rockbox.haxx.se/ -- http://daniel.haxx.se/ ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Mon, 10 May 2004 15:08:28 +0200 From: Bj?rn Stenberg <bjorn_at_haxx.se> Subject: Re: CVS repository moved To: Rockbox development <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Message-ID: <20040510130828.GI31891_at_linux3.contactor.se> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 sophana wrote: > if you run your own server, why don't you use svn instead of cvs? Because this was an act of desperation. We wanted off the sinking Sourceforge servers immediately, so we just moved the repository. Migrating to another system would have taken more time and effort. We have been looking at Subversion for a long time and will move to it eventually. We will warn everybody ahead of time about that, though. :-) -- Bjvrn ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Mon, 10 May 2004 09:30:31 -0400 From: Stu Engelke <engineer_at_nycradio.com> Subject: Auto level control while recording To: rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se Message-ID: <5.2.1.1.0.20040510092556.03625d60_at_mail.salemwebnetwork.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed; x-avg-checked=avg-ok-2D5922 I like the auto level control that is available while playing. Is there, can there, will there be a similar feature while recording? I use the V2 to record a class on the line input via the sound board for the room but the levels from week to week are all over the place. A slow ALC would be a big help.

I record 12 - 16 hours from a radio, and I would prefer dealing with 12 one hour files than one humongous 12 hour file. Also, if something goes wrong in the ninth hour, at least I have 8 good files. If I could say "record 12 1 hour files and then stop" I would be a happy man. > > But I do like to be able to start up a dubbing session and leave > it to stop on its own, without chewing up the entire hard disk > and creating a massive file to have to deal with later. > > Ah...

But one person's essentials are another's clutter, I suppose. I wouldn't mind if there were some options that were settable only in the config file, but this one probably should be in a menu. > > David H.

Same problem and I have the latest build of rockbox. Only small recordings work on pc or anything else, the big ones only work on the recorder itself. Untill now I haven't found a solution to this. The only possible option now is to record the stuff again with the pc while your archos plays it => results in a small quality loss. It's irritating isn't it ? I've tried the windows VBRfix but that doesnt help, I'm gonna try the cygwin version to. I'll let you know something when it's done or I find some remedy. _________________________________________________________________ Op zoek naar je droomhuis? http://www.msn.be/wonen ------------------------------ Message: 11 Date: Mon, 10 May 2004 17:30:26 +0000 From: "Jeroen Verbeeck" <verbeeck_jeroen_at_hotmail.com> Subject: Re: Video Underruns (RVF) To: rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se Message-ID: <Sea1-F94SA1rWAE6POp0000a473_at_hotmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1; format=flowed >I have implemented the dynamic spinup adjustment now.

No need to pass around old collectors' versions of Rockbox any more. Debugging this was pretty tough, it turned out it wasn't my code malfunctioning, instead the bitswap process (a kind of preprocessing needed by the playback) was still active, trashed the data structure of the loaded voice file in the mp3 buffer.
