It was amazing to see my device that was pretty much sitting on the shelf come roaring back to life for me with the Rockbox firmware. In contrast, I bought an ILO 1GB player in January, and it generally works and is very light and portable, but it has no resume function and very slow searching, so it is a major pain to listen to podcasts instead of individual songs. I want to slap their stupid programmers around the head for not adding the most useful feature of all, resume. I have one small issue with my Archos, and I was hoping someone could point the way. Some of the MP3s I want to play are delivered in the format listed as "MPEG 2.5 Layer III" at 24kBit/s and 11025 Hz. This format is apparently not supported on this older unit. Files in the format "MPEG 2 Layer III" at 24kBit/s and 16000 Hz play fine. (Oddly, the 2.5 format apparently doesn't even save space.) Can anyone recommend an application that will convert MPEG 2.5 to MPEG 2, so I can play the files on my old Archos? I have been trying to use BonkEnc.org, and I thought it worked for me a couple of months ago, but I can't get it working again. After conversion I am left with an MPEG 2.5 format. (BonkEnc is a really nice app, but the manual is yet to be written...) Maybe someone could guide me through BonkEnc for this conversion? Thanks alot! I really appreciate your help.
