Similar situation happened to me, but only after I loaded Rockbox, or at least as far as I remember. I've got an iPod video 5.5 too. Last Thurs I loaded stable v3.1. Found it didn't work with my acc., so I rebooted in to iPod to listen in my truck. Was fine all weekend. Sunday night, paused the track, put it away for the night. Monday morning I had to force the reboot to get it going again. Didn't think much about it, just did the iTunes restore when I got to work. On Wednesday, I loaded current r20102-090225; to get it working with my transmitter, which it does now, mostly. Rebooted back in to iPod (to fiddle with ratings) Wed. night. Thursday worked fine. This morning, it was "dead" again. Had to force reboot to wake it up. But, once I got it going both times, it never complained about low battery. But that may be because when I did get it going, it was plugged in and charging at the time. Next time it happens, I'll leave it unplugged, to see if I get the battery warning too... -- --- Dave Woyciesjes --- ICQ# 905818 --- AIM - woyciesjes --- CompTIA A+ Certified IT Tech - http://certification.comptia.org/ --- HDI Certified Support Center Analyst - http://www.ThinkHDI.com/ "From there to here, From here to there, Funny things are everywhere." --- Dr. SeussReceived on 2009-02-27 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
