7515BugsApplicationsVery LowRadio disappears from menu!2007-08-02Daniel Rosenzweig312013-07-13 Task Description

Over the past month? the radio menu has been disappearing. When I reinstall the menu comes back and the radio works and the debug screen shows the radio.

When it re-initializes the DB, the radio disappears and the debug screen said that there's is no hardware.

If I manually deleted the DB files, the radio comes back…

A few other people on anythingbutipod forum have mentioned the same issue.

Still an issue August 1, 2007: r14133-070801

13108BugsMusic playbackVery LowRandom crashes when playing music2017-03-16somedude162017-12-16 Task Description

For a couple of months my Sansa Fuze v2 has been crashing randomly when playing music. Most of the time I just get a white screen with an error message. The last message I got was :

'undefined instruction at 0006DC8C'

(I think that last number varies at each crash)

This didn't happen with v3.13, but it's been happening with every daily build I've tested IIRC.

It doesn't happen very often so it's hard to reproduce. I listen to music in public transports about twice a day and this happens not more than once a week. It seems to happen more often when the battery is low (less than 10%). It generally happens early in a playback session, when the first or second track is played.

Sometimes I don't get a white screen, but the program freezes and some parts of the interface are surrounded with white frames. I don't know if it's the same bug or if it's unrelated.

Note that I'm always listening to music on a microSD card, and I haven't tried on the main memory.

PS: I chose "Sansa Fuze+" in the OS list because I couldn't find Sansa Fuse v2.

9778BugsBootloaderVery LowSingle Mode Bootloader fails reboot on updated Gigabeat...2009-01-10Davide142011-04-11 Task Description

I used the official toshiba updater to get an “original” fresh install on my beast and then attempted to run through the install procedure for a single boot rockbox install. After a (seemingly) sucessful install I’d end up in recover mode after any reboot.

Fatal error when attempting to install nk.bin (rockbox only bootloader) using sendfirm in Windows to an updated (v1.2) Gigabeat S player.

After install of both bootloader and rockbox the Gigabeat S, once rebooted, goes into recovery mode (toshiba) and requires an update/restore. This is the Number 3 Triangle.

Notes:
Gigabeat was first updated using the official toshiba MESV12US updater. “gbs_update_1_2_us.exe”

Using SVN revision 19741 to compile nk.bin under WinXP and Cygwin.
Using MTP.zip of 7/4/2008 found on the wiki to send over the bootloader.

I suspect most devs updated their bootloaders using the sendfirm utility *before/without* updating the entire player with the updater utility from toshiba. Thus they started from a v1.1 OF and never updated any part of that.

Maybe the updater changes something in the bootcode. I don’t know.

10614BugsMusic playbackVery LowDeleting files in USB mode can confuse resume playback/...2009-09-23Alex Bennee142010-04-09 Task Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start listening to a series of podcasts, say 1-5
2. After listening to >1 plug player into computer during playback of subsequent podcast
3. Delete the podcasts you have already listened to (not what your currently listening to)
4. Eject/Unplug player from computer
5. Attempt to resume playback

This fails for both resume and Recent Bookmarks functionality. I assume this is somehow tied in with playlist support as files from the playlist have been deleted.

Where does Recent Bookmarks keep it's information? Should the bookmark also keep the individual file referenced so it can resume in this case?

Tested on R21184M-090604

Will test on latest version once my main machine is back on internet.

Hi,

I think that the problem reported on  FS#10919  is still here, or at least not completely solved.

12221BugsCodecsVery LowAAC files from BBC won't play on Clip+2011-08-08Jonathan Addleman142013-08-17 Task Description

I downloaded some AAC files from the bbc, using the get-iplayer utility. The files play just fine on the computer, but on my rockboxed Clip+, they seem to freeze up the player entirely. I have to hold the power button for a long time to reset it. I just tried updating to rockbox 3.9, but I'm not seeing any difference with the new firmware.

When I play the file in mplayer, it gives the following info:

Any idea why these files aren't working? Is there anything I can do, short of transcoding them to another format?

Sansa Clip Zip has big problems with Lossless files. BIG.

1) Flacs skips randomly, at every encoding level (5 or 8 it's the same) and it's impossible to reproduce this issue when I want. It skips to the next track randomly
2) Ape files stops to reproducing and makes a really big noise, this after 30 sec. or 3 min… or nothing at all.
3) Wavpack files, sometimes, stucks for 0.5 seconds and then, it continues to play. It happens to Fast encoding, or Normal encoding, it's the same.
4) AAC files make little noises and, sometimes, crash Rockbox.

Flac and APE problems, I'm sure, occurs from ages, I bought Clip Zip months ago and these problem occurred for every build and ofr every Rockbox release.

I don't think that my player's broken. These problems were previously posted by other people.

I think that the testing of builds were made too hastily, there are too many problems with lossless files. I can understand APE that requires an expensive decoding, but FLAC files couldn't have these problems :(

Been using Rockbox for years, so it was really obvious when things got messed up somewhere in 3.12~3.13. In a nutshell, with this release, in a 1000+ playlist, I’m listening to the same songs over and over again when shuffle is on. To fix the issue, I have to turn shuffle OFF and then flip it back to ON every time I start a player. Never had this problem before. Don’t know if this affects all devices or just my H340 (yes! still going strong!).

I’m using revision 29572 of android port. Host system is Samsung Galaxy 3 i5800, with 240×400 resolution display, with version 2.2 (Froyo) of Android.

The problem is as follows. When trying to start playback of OGG or SPX files, the playback does not start occasionally (the change is maybe less than 20% to have playback). By rewinding randomly it is possible to get it start playback. The same behaviour occurs when starting from bookmarks and from file explorer. The problem occurs with default config file.

Tried with MP3 and had the same problem. The problem may be with other codecs as well but I have not tried it so extensively.

12864BugsMusic playbackVery LowAutomatic Resume behavior inconsistent on 3.132013-05-24Michael Bauminger112013-11-18 Task Description

This may be all players; I have only had experience with the Sansa Clip+ and Clip Zip. On version 3.13 the Automatic Resume feature works inconsistently, especially on the 2nd+ file of a playlist.

In version 3.11.2, the feature worked correctly on my Clip+. If I paused the player and the player turned off due to the timeout, when I turned the player back on and pressed the “Home” button or “Resume Playback”, the entire playlist would be back in place and playback would resume at the spot I paused. If I was 30 seconds into the third file in a playlist, playback would resume at that point. When that file finished, the next file in the playlist would start. Pressing “Previous” or “Next” would play the previous or next file in the playlist.

In version 3.13, this feature does not always work correctly. In fact, it rarely works correctly when playing a file that is not the first file in a playlist. Some times it works fine. Most times when I try to resume playback, it instead plays the beginning of the first track in the playlist. Some times when that happens, if I manually navigate to the track I was in when I paused, it will resume that track from the correct position rather than starting it over from the beginning.

This behavior is seriously agitating. I use my player to listen to multi-hour podcasts broken into separate files for each hour. If I get a phone call and pause my player I expect my player to automatically shut itself off after a few minutes, and it does. When I start the player again, I want to be able to pick up just where I left off. On versions prior to this, I could. In 3.13 it does not work 9 out of 10 times.

Using release 3.13 on the clip zip, if I were to put the main crossfeed setting on the right button of the quickscreen, it would cycle through to custom but then stop. If I use the left button of the quickscreen, then after custom there is a data abort crash.

Using build c64b59f-140304, both the left and right quickscreen buttons work to cycle through all 3 settings for crossfeed, but I can still trigger the crash if I use the left button. It seems to be sporadic and timing dependent, because if I click through the options quickly it works fine, but if I slow down and hold the buttons for longer at a time then it will eventually trigger.

Here is a picture of the crash: http://i.imgur.com/wS1CqVr.jpg The text is:

7464BugsFM TunerVery LowSmall weaknesses in FM-radio on iAudio X52007-07-21Davy Kager92007-11-03 Task Description

I'm using the newest build of Rockbox (2007-07-21) with an iAudio X5 20 GB and I have my tuner set to the European region. I encounter two little flaws in the FM-radio. I think they partially have to do with the player's hardware, but maybe Rockbox can improve the quality a bit.

1. The player is really sensitive to movement. The signal strength differs with every meter that you take the player with you. On top of that, most stations sound like they're not correctly tuned, but I can't get them any better. Maybe Rockbox could be more accurate in frequency selection? (Like 101.100, 101.125, 101.150.) I can get these stations quite well on my home radio. I don't expect the same quality from such a small device, but some finetuning would be great. The only problem is that it would take a while to scroll through the frequencies, but once set it'd be fine.
2. (I assume this is very hardware related.) The radio signal may change between stereo and mono. I have it set to stereo, but sometimes it just picks mono. I guess this is because of the hardware, since it is place related. I also didn't find any potential bugs in the source code.

What are your thoughts on this?

Oh, and keep up this good work! I really enjoy Rockbox!

playmode, so it stops after playing one song, instead of
repeating all, or repeating single? That way, it could also

On the Official Test Build for the Sansa Fuze, when playing Doom, in middle of playing, Rockbox gives a Data Abort Error. If it doesn't happen in middle of playing, it is always reproducible by entering the second Map. The most recent error i got is "Data Abort at 307B32D4". My Version is "r21704-090707".

It happened once just browsing through the Menu, but is only reproduced every time by playing Doom, which is why I filed it under Doom.

11962BugsOperating System/DriversVery LowPlayer and Filetransfer freeze during USB file transfer2011-02-23not relevant82011-08-18 Task Description

The interface of my Sansa Fuze and the file transfer freeze randomly when transferring large amounts of data. If the player runs in Bootloader USB mode everything is fine.

I guess this could break the vfat file system, making this a nasty bug. Disabling Key and Mouseemulation did not help. As long as this isn't fixed, a solution would be to start the player in Bootloader USB mode by default. I don't know if this is possible though, since I don't know the the technical details of rockbox very well.

Beside that everything works just great, keep up the good word!

PS.: I'm using Debian with different kernels. I couldn't see any differences between different kernel versions regarding this issue. Intels Linux USB drivers and the Linux USB stack in general usually work excellent as far as I know, therefore I would blame it on rockbox (no offense :)).

12671BugsUser InterfaceVery LowIn Rockbox for Android it is not possible to highlight ...2012-05-11Dieter82012-05-21 Task Description

In Rockbox for Android it is not possible to highlight an entry in a list without selecting (entering) it.

For example, if I am in the playlist viewer showing the list of just playing songs with my ipod (running rockbox) I was able to scroll through the list which moved the higligting bar through the list and then I could select the desired entry by pressing enter. With the touchscreen I found no way only to highlight a certain entry.

This is important if all entries are very long and have the same starting text. For example "Ludwig von Beethoven, Symphony No. 9 - 1. Adagio" cannot be distinguished from "Ludwig von Beethoven, Symphony No. 9 - 2. Andante" in the playlist viewer since the distinguishing part is cut off. With my ipod I could highlight the entries with the scroll wheel and the highlighted line started horizontally scrolling so I could see the complete text. With the Android port I can only touch the line, but touching the line does not only highlight it but also selects it and so starts playing.

This problem also exists in other list with long entries and happens with all version I compiled until now (latest was a12b2a5).

12769BugsBootloaderVery Lowrb 3.12 - iriver H140 bootloader crash: 1st boot fails,...2012-10-19Leo H.82013-07-06 Task Description

Rockbox Info: Version: 3.12

Device: iRiver H140, 80GB Toshiba MK8009GAH 8mm 1.8" IDE HDD 8mm


BUG: Repeatable, Consistent.


Additional Information:
1. To verify that I had a good installation of the 3.12 version of the Rockbox firmware working, I have reformatted, and re-flashed rockbox 3.12 two seperate times after initially encountering this, duplicating this behavior. So it doesn't seem to be a bad firmware flash.


Expected Behavior:

1. Player should Power On and boot properly every single time the bootup sequence is initiated correctly (Play Button pressed when Player is in a Powered Off state).


Buggy Behavior:

1. Player Powers Up, then locks up (i.e. "crashes") during bootloader sequence, requiring a hard reset, and upon second boot, finally Powers On and boots properly, bringing up a functional session of the Main User Interface. This is repeatable, and consistent.


Bug Symptoms & How To Repeat:

1. Consistently the Player will lock up during first "boot" sequence. The bootloader will usually reach the text stage, and sometimes crash here. Sometimes the bootloader will get through the text stage and reach the Rockbox Logo and then crash here. The Main User Interface is never reached upon first "boot" sequence.

2. The result of the first "boot" lockup (i.e. "crash") requires that I reset the Player by inserting a paperclip into the Reset hole (on the bottom plate of the Player) and triggering the button hidden in there. This Powers Down the Player, and Resets the Firmware, leaving the Player ready to be Powered On again.

3. Upon the second "boot", the Player will "boot" and the bootloader will make it past the text stage, the Rockbox Logo stage, and then spin up the HDD properly; the bootloader will not lock up the firmware, and behaves 'normally', finally resulting in a completed boot up sequence with the Main User Interface coming up (as a user would expect). The Player is now ready to use.

12955BugsOperating System/DriversVery LowRockbox daily not turning off once notebook is shut dow...2014-02-28Ali Akcaagac82014-03-01 Task Description

Hello

I run rockbox daily (last update 27 Feb 2014) and found an issue that I like to report. I have my sandisk clip zip connected to an external USB hub, which is connected to my notebook. Today I left the sandisk clip zip connected and turned the notebook off. I expected that the player will disconnect from the USB hub → blanks the screen after 20-30 seconds (depending on the setup) and then turns off after a while (depending on the setup). Unfortunately the last step won't happen.

The sandisk clip zip really disconnected from the USB connection (the usb picture disappears from the display) with the notebook going back into the rockbox menu (Play, Radio, Settings, Recording etc.) and after a while also blanks the screen as expected.

Unfortunately it does NOT turn itself off as it would if you leave it entirely unconnected (unwired) with the USB. The sandisk clip zip starts to turn the screen on again after a while, turns off again, turns on again after a while, turns off etc.

I had to plug off the mini USB connection (the wiring between the player and the usb hub) so it turns off and shuts down after a while.

What I believe is, that the USB subroutines might not know the difference between powered on notebook and powered off notebook. It only knows that it's wired and thus tries to turn the player on again after it blanks. It should really be possible to keep the player connected (and wired) when the notebook shuts down and have the player shut down as well (after blanking and then turning itself off).

Could this be reviewed and maybe worked on ?

Thanks so far.

Hi,
I've been using the development version of Rockbox in my ipod classic 6th generation for about two years I think, but from some time, like a month or two, I'm experiencing playback issues as the track I'm listening suddenly skip forward or backward, or even jump for a few seconds on another mp3 file inside the ipod I was just listening before.

9413BugsBattery/ChargingVery LowRockbox (and bootloader) mistakes battery for USB.2008-09-22Paul Skinner72008-09-24 Task Description

This may represent other players as well.

I installed a new battery on my iriver, a 2100 mAh that is working perfectly. The problem however, is that when fully charged, the voltage holds up to 4.12 volts, and until it drains to somewhere under 3.9 volts, Rockbox thinks that it is powered via USB, so naturally Rockbox gets stuck in USB mode until the battery is drained enough for Rockbox to realize that it IS a battery. With this problem at hand, I have to charge my iriver to only less than seventy percent of its battery life, or else wait for an hour or so to drain it to that point. I HAVE tested it in its original firmware, like I said, works perfectly. The problem lies with Rockbox thinking that the battery is a USB charger. I am asking for a fix around this. Is there a way that I can modify Rockbox so that it may understand that it is running off of a battery that will get up to 4.12 volts and not mistake that for USB power? I just now thought to turn off the “Charge During USB Connection,” maybe that will solve the problem; I will get back when I find out whether or not that works. However, I would still like to request a work around for this problem. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

10706BugsDriversVery LowTag DB Never Builds2009-10-22Brian Sutherland72011-05-19 Task Description

I am running 3.4 on a 5.5G iPod modified with a 240gb drive. Rockbox is stock 3.4 with LBA48 added in and the max sector size turned off. The database was working ok on 3.3. Only issue was it took forever to add new files. After upgrading to 3.4 I noticed every time I powered on rockbox would lock up in the menus for up to 10 minutes before functioning normally. So I completely removed the .rockbox dir (including the database files of course) and re-expanded a fresh copy. I then tried to init the db. It runs until it is around ~44k files and 99% and then just sits there. If left alone it will eventually just turn it self off. When I turn it back on it will ask me to init the db again. I have seen it try to commit once or twice but it never takes. I am not really sure how to debug this at this point. Also in the debug disk info area, it things my drive is 131071MB. Under Rockbox Info it says 223GB which is better, but these two things are the same as in 3.3. All my Oggs are converted via a script I wrote from my flacs. I do not believe my flacs have any art, I am not even sure you can store art in a flac tag and even them I don’t think the ogg encoder is transferring them. I ran a tag dump (ogginfo) against my oggs and do not see anything to do with album art. I had 4 files on the device with album art. They were all in a directory with a database.ignore file. So they should not have been noticed. Just in case I removed that directory and rebuilt. It went though 44k files, commited 1-9 and then went back to “scanning” but the disk activity had stopped. Upon reboot it asked me to init the db again.

This is not a patched build. I simply changed the config to include large drive support. This is an issue that needs to be looked at. Please check into it, I will be happy to test any ideas.

12883BugsCodecsVery LowOpus becomes unresponsive at lowest CPU frequency2013-07-20Mark Mitchinson72016-01-20 Task Description

After playing a few opus files (~128 kbps) the system becomes so unresponsive that it cannot decode the file in real time, and the device cannot respond to any input within a reasonable timeframe (have to hard power off).

This does not occur when you set the cpu frequency beyond the highest setting in the debug menu!

To reproduce:
play opus files in a playlist with normal cpu scaling
on beginning of 2nd or 3rd file, system will become unresponsive.

This was reported in the past as part of another bug (FS #6707), and although the other one hasn’t happened anymore, this one still does.

Happens only from time to time. Scenario:

- player is playing song (in WPS), backlight off
- press stop
- only backlight goes on, playback continues

I attach this to H300 series but this may not be player specific

8372BugsBootloaderVery LowIdle Poweroff only reboots my 1G iPod2007-12-25bil jeschke62008-11-12 Task Description

The Idle Poweroff only reboots my 1G iPod. I assume it should power it off or put it into a power saving mode. This forces it to use up the battery faster then normal unless I set the Hold button to boot into the iPod firmware to do a proper suspend when Rockbox reboots.

9056BugsCodecsVery LowAC3 playback does not work for single ripped songs2008-05-30Przemysław Hołubowski62011-04-18 Task Description

RB does not play AC3 tracks which were extracted from DVD with splitting one-track/one-song (splitting by chapters).

In other words - if you extract single AC3 song RB will not be able to play it back, despite the fact foobar2000 and Winamp with AC3Filter plugin will play it fine.

It is not a problem related to extracting software as the problem occurs for AC3 files saved by DVD Audio Extractor and SmartRipper. (Files saved by them are bit-bit the same as file comparison showed).

Simulator does not display any debugging info when you try to play AC3 file which RB is unable to play.

AC3 playback is not completely broken because RB plays AC3 files if you extracted full AC3 track without splitting it.

9189BugsCodecsVery LowSwitching APE tracks no longer works on H1202008-07-12Thomas Pfenning62011-05-05 Task Description

I have only tested this on my H120 with an 18007 build. I have been using the APE codec for some time now and never had a problem in the past.

After reformatting my hard drive and installing the current build I found that rockbox has 2 problems with my APE files

1. The parser for APE files no longer recognizes my APE files encoded with version 8,9 of Jriver Media Center. Result is that files don't play when selected in the file browser and these files do net get added to the database.

2. When switching APE tracks one of two possible behavior occur. a) the Iriver freezes completely. b) On switching tracks there is a loud hiss and then playback of the next track resumes.

Cheers

9551BugsUser InterfaceVery LowPLAY and STOP buttons should be universal (where possib...2008-11-14Steve Bavin62017-01-07 Task Description

Where possible (i.e. the buttons aren’t needed for somethinig else), the PLAY button should go straight to the WPS (resuming as required) or radio.

These are almost the case, but on the H300 there are the following exceptions:

- Rockbox Info (PLAY performs the disk free space scan, same as SELECT)
- Playlist Viewer when selected from the Main > Playlists menu (PLAY returns to the menu above, same as LEFT)
- Sleep Timer (PLAY does nothing)
- Debug Manu (PLAY enters the selected item, same as SELECT)
- Browse x in Settings, where x = Themes, Fonts or .cfg/.wps/.rwps Files (PLAY returns to the menu above, same as LEFT). (Note that the plugin browser works fine!)

Similarly, the STOP button should stop playback, which is largely ok, except:

- In the Playlist Viewer (STOP does nothing)

I don’t have any other targets handy, but feel free to add any other suspect screens here.

10039BugsThemesVery Lowfast changing time indicators when pausing with fading ...2009-03-21Johannes Linke62011-07-27 Task Description

to reproduce:

1. set playback settings–>fade on stop/pause to on.
2. play some music.
3. press the pause button to stop the music, and again to restart it. repeat that a few times, because this bug does not always occur.

you will notice that both “time-displays” sometimes change very to the previous second and then back to the normal one, e.g 3:32, then very short 3:31, and back to 3:32. the progressbar sometimes get smaller for a fraction of a second, too.

maybe i’ll search for the revision which introduced this in the next few days

10541BugsUser InterfaceDeferWrong value used when changing scroll bar width2009-08-18Rosso Maltese62011-06-05 Task Description

In the "Scroll bar width" screen, the value used to show the width selected is the previous one, not the current one. The first value change has no effect.
Anyway it seems that the right value is stored: if you select a value and exit by the screen, when you re-enter in it, the width is correct.

Priority low.

Referred to r22406.

12468BugsOperating System/DriversVery LowHotswap fails to recognize the card after it was remove...2011-12-19Andrej62011-12-22 Task Description

If Rockbox is connected via USB with no sd card inserted and it is inserted, it offers the OS to mount the new drive.
If the sd card is removed and reinsterted again, it fails to offer and recognize it.

I could locate the problem in firmware/usbstack/usb_storage.c in the line

if(inserted && check_disk_present(IF_MD(volume))) {

after reinserting the card, check_disk_present fails to return true, so this check fails and the card isn't recognized anymore.

12614BugsDatabaseVery LowBug while seeking on Sansaclip+2012-03-13Alan62012-05-09 Task Description

Hi, firstly i put Sansa c200 because SansaClip+ is not available in the list.
My player is a Sandisk SansaClip+ bought 6 months ago with an 8Gb class 4 Sandisk microsd (that is currently empty, no songs stored).

Steps to reproduce the issue (after a fresh installation of the Firmware, no settings changed):

1) Switch on
2) → database
3) → track
4) select any track
5) press the central button
6) Erase Dynamic Playlist? is displayed.. Select Yes
7) countdown then starts to play
8) Seek to the next song (it happens at the first seek or might need three, four one after the other)

Data abort

FSR 0x8
(domani 0, fault 8)
address 0x62E90028

- I installed version 3.10 on top of version 3.09, but later on I tried to uninstall completely 3.10 and reinstall it from scratch and the issue is the same.

- After the crash i have to keep the "switchoff" button pressed for a while.. then I press it again to restart the player and I try to resume the song I get "playlist control file is invalid" or "nothing to resume"

- behavior is the same with or without the SD card

- The issue was randomly happening (but very very rarely) also on the previous version of the firmware (3.09) I got the error a couple of times in 6 months.

I’ve been using the latest dev builds everyday for iPod Nano 2G and still encountering “Swapped Channels” on Playback (e.g. Left Channel → Right Headphone / Right Channel → Left Headphone).

12752BugsConfigurationVery LowVolume problem on Android RaaA2012-09-18PurlingNayuki62012-09-23 Task Description

So far there's still two problem which have never been fixed on Android:
1.When opening Rockbox, its volume bump to max automatically whatever it was when last quit;
2.On most HTC(and probably other) devices one can't use physical volume keys to adjust. Volume bars in WPS and SBS work well however.

Hopes the fixes!

Sans Clip V2

24bit 96000 Hz 6 Channel (5.1) FLAC files skip to next song after 30 seconds. 30 seconds is an estimate because my screen is broken, so I can’t see what’s happening. I downloaded a daily build 3 days ago, but I think it’s a buffering issue. Flac is 8181 kbps (says Foobar).

It’s the first time I tried these files, so I don’t know if they ever worked, or ever will.
If they never will work, I’m sorry for reporting this.

Thank you all for your time and efforts.
