Rockbox

I have an upgraded iPod 5.5 with CF 32Gb installed in CF-ZIF adapter.
Both iTunes & Rockbox are working fine with this setup.

Then I tried to increase the storage space by using mSata SSD 64 GB + mSata-ZIF adapter. iTunes recovered the iPod successfully and it is working just fine. I installed Rockbox latest stable (non-stable latest = same thing) version & after the Rockbox boot-up it reporting an ATA error -11.

I wonder if this can be solved.

Thanks!

On my Sansa Clip+ 4GB, with Rockbox v3.11.2

Recording a wav file through internal microphone. If the audio signal clips at the positive limit, bad things happen:
1) Most of the time the recorded signal wraps around to a full scale negative value, which makes it sound terrible.
2) Sometimes the recorded signal wraps around to a near zero value, which still makes it sound terrible but the distortion is not so loud

3) Clipping at the negative end of the range is as you would expect - a flat line which sounds like normal digital distortion, as you would expect

See attached picture of the recorded waveform showing each of the 3 situations described above.

This is a very early patch to enable USB on the mini2440.

This patch let rockbox react on USB, but unfortunatly i dont get further then the first reset interrupt from USB. Something in the init has to be wrong, so i dont get ep0 interrupt which should follow the reset.

Because of this problems, no attempt has been made to implement the acutal data transfer functions.

If someone wants to step in and debug.. feel free !

If you build RaaA for SDL with HAVE_TOUCHSCREEN disabled there are no key bindings for the SDL_PAD in any of the plugins. This patch attempts to define generic key mappings for the 3×3 number pad on a typical PC keyboard. It needs work however. For instance, after a bit of testing I decided I’d prefer not to wait for a key repeat on the HOME button to quit most of the plugins. That said, it may prove a useful starting point developers building for RaaA platforms without a mouse or touchscreen. (Like me with the zipit.)

For the Zipit I plan to fix up the generic SDL keys first, testing on a real PC, and then try and figure out a way to use most of them as is. I’m not sure yet if it makes sense to define a ZIPIT_PAD for the few plugins where alternative keys make sense, or use some other #ifdef.

Here’s a patch to version r29143M-110324 that adds the Zipit Z2 as a build target. It requires one new file (also attached) firmware/target/hosted/zipit/powermgmt-zipit-z2.c to monitor the battery.

This is mostly a generic SDL app with a few tweaks for the Zipit buttons and battery monitoring. The patch also includes a few small bug fixes for SDL app builds. I had to fix the labels in the asm section of lcd-16bit.c. There were some missing parenthesis on an #ifdef in button-application.c. And the apps/SOURCES file needs an #ifdef to handle an SDL app build without touchscreen support.

This patch implements a menu function to the playlist viewer's contextual menu that moves the selected track after the current playing track. It is especially useful as a simple queuing method.

I have tried to properly handle the situation in which the current playing track is the last in the playlist, but since I don't know exactly how (when) the playlist indexes are updated I wasn't able to do much in that respect, any help is very welcomed.

Since this patch adds the LANG_MOVE_AFTER_CURRENT string, I have also attached a diff with updates to the English and the Romanian translation file.

I'm running Rockbox 3.11.2 on a Sansa Clip+.
I followed these steps:
- go to the Main Menu
- Files
- long press on <microSD1>
- Playlist Catalogue
- Add to New Playlist
I tried to save the playlist with a long press of the select button (not sure of the button's actual name; it is the button in the middle of the 4-way controller and the one that is usually used to select the highlighted option). I was returned to the Files menu. The playlist did not get saved, and there was no error explaining why.

As a result, I spent a long time assuming that long press of select was a "cancel" action, and tried short and long presses of every other button trying to save the playlist.

Workaround: instead of accepting the suggested filename, remove the "<" and ">" characters from the auto-entered filename ("/Playlists/<microSD1>.m3u8") to be able to save the playlist.

Suggested fixes: The filename suggested by Rockbox should not include "<", ">", or other un-saveable characters. In addition, if the user tries to save a file with invalid characters, a warning or error message should be posted (like the "Cancelled" message that briefly pops up when the power button is pressed to exit from the set-filename screen).

I got this error twice in a row; once after the player had been running for a few (5-20) minutes; then I repeated my action and saw the error again. This is the text on the screen from the second occurrence (I did not write down the error text the first time; but when I tried to replicate the issue a 3rd time before submitting, I saw the same text):

Data abort
at 3001A6B0
FSR 0x8
(domain 0, fault 8)
address 0xB0153884

I had a playlist of 2255 items (created using Playlists | Create Playlist so I can just 'shuffle all').
While listening to a song (about 995/2255), I went to Database then Artist and scrolled to an artist that I knew had only one song, did a long press and selected Queue Next. The screen says 'Loading' for a couple seconds, then the music stops and I see the text above.

After the second error, I selected the artist and did the long press on the song and selected Queue Next, and did not get any error

I have a Sansa Clip, but I don't remember if it is a v1 or v2.

I suspect this bug has appeared since r29333, r29341, r29342 but I'm not 100% sure, it worked fine a few days back.

When I delete a file it goes well, but after I delete a file after first switching to another application or to the Android main screen deleting a file locks the main screen, it also locks up for other Android native screens like the keyboard you get when you create a directory.

I use Android 2.1 on a Cowon D3 device.

I have a Sansa Clip+, Clip Zip and Fuze V2 all running various RB versions. The crash happens on all of them.

To focus I will use the Clip Zip (as its close at hand) and tell you what it does.
I get:

Prefetch abort
at 9D8DE9B4
FSR 0x11
(domain 1, fault

on a white background screen

This happens when trying to use the lrc plugin on the clip zip running RB version 4.0 (r31646-120109) and accessing a sandisk 16gb sd card that is 12.5gb full.
But i can confirm i get this message (or a similar one) on my fuze v2 and clip+ which are running 'stable' albeit older versions of rockbox (again from sd cards). I mention the sd cards but im 90% sure it happens on songs on the internal memory also.

I suspect it has something to do with my mp3 files having lyrics embedded within them but not as .lrc files. All i can explain is this:
I use wiki lyrics to find lyrics for songs and then right click copy them and use Tag&Rename and Paste into the mp3 file and save.

Using this method works fine for displaying lyrics when using ipad2's stock music player (pre iOS5) and androids app Poweramp for Samsung galaxy S2 phones and Creatives Ziio 7 tablet (running poweramp). This method also works for my Pc when running foobar and using the 'TextDisplay' component. The Text Display Format in foobar settings are $if2(%unsynced lyrics%,No lyrics available)

It should be noted that when using poweramp and choosing 'Lyrics' it asks where u want to choose to read the lyrics from:
-Auto (from tags if available, otherwise via musixmatch plugin)
-Musixmatch plugin
-From tags

I select the last option (from tags) always and it never fails. ipads player seems to also use this method. The lyrics do not scroll automatically, u need to scroll up and down to read them (should they be longer than the visible screen).

Occasionally lrc plugin wont crash if it actually finds a lrc file embedded in song and works fine. But this rarely happens, perhaps only 10% of my collection has lrc files embedded within them, soon as it goes to next track without one it produces this error.

I just did it again for a different file and a different error.

There is something wrong on my iPod Video 5.5 with ROCKBOX 3.9.1. Because I change my ipod's HDD to Samsung's 32G ssd as my rigid disk, I can not enter my rockbox system.

Is there something wrong with my new SSD? Or it is just a bug with rockbox which can not support my SSD

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. I don't think is a ipod issue because I can listen the file inside the ipod with my computer player without problems.

There some way I can check older development revisions for the classic? It appears that it doesn't show in the dev build link on the site because is not fully supported. Thanks

This isn't a big problem because the MR-100 won't turn on if the hold switch is already engaged.

But if the user turns on the MR-100 and then engages the hold switch while the M:Robe logo is on the screen, a "Hold switch is on Shutting down…" message is displayed, but it does not shut down.

A reset is required at this point - disengaging the hold switch and holding down the power button in this state does not shut down the MR-100.

Currently running r19940 but there doesn’t seem to have been any chage in the power code for the gigabeat S recently.

The issue is that there is a regular clicking noise heard if DC power is connected while the battery is fully charged. This noise is not heard while the battery is charging. The same power adapter doesn’t cause the same noise on an F.

I am working on adding album art support for FLAC and Ogg files. FLAC looks straightfoward, but there is a design problem with Ogg.

https://wiki.xiph.org/VorbisComment#Cover_art

The struct containing the image and associated data is base64 encoded. I can't just set id3→albumart.pos to a location in the file like all other supported album art formats (and FLAC). Obivously I could allocate memory for the decoded base64 data, but it would have to be deallocated later to prevent a leak.

On IRC, nick_p suggested: "how about adding a new id3 struct element id3→albumart.base64_encoded=true and decoding it when needed on the fly?" This sounds like a good idea, with one issue: it's not the album art alone that is base64 encoded, but the data struct described here:

http://flac.sourceforge.net/format.html#metadata_block_picture

I can test to see if I can parse the beginning of the base64 block, then set the pos pointer to the middle of of the block (with the id3 struct addition) and see if it will still decode.

I think commit 1654efc31339972d0e6bd41a499fcffc0a45822e introduces the following error:
storage_init in firmware/storage.c does not return an rc error code in case !CONFIG_STORAGE_MULTI
because its discarded here:

#else /* ndef CONFIG_STORAGE_MULTI */
+ STORAGE_FUNCTION(init)();
+#endif /* CONFIG_STORAGE_MULTI */

+ storage_thread_init();

   return 0;

this is a simple plugin called 'moonrock' which shows the phase of the
moon. It is not the most earthshatteringly original thing but nevertheless the effect is pretty nice. Hopefully someone else likes this!

For targets with CONFIG_RTC, it either shows a text description
or, for HAVE_LCD_BITMAP and at least greyscale targets, a (pre-calculated) picture of the moon. But only if the data file (moonrock.dat) is present and found in the apps/ directory. (it should be attached to this post, I hope it shows up here, as the file is 3MB). (time of the player is assumed to be GMT)

you can switch between picture and text with select button, and choose a new date with play (which does not change the internal clock).

The patche changes some small things in the api and in the bitmap reading routines to be able to do things easily.

Rockbox Daily Build rev 085c10 (2013-01-30)
120gb 7G iPod Classic.

When I connect my rockboxed iPod Classic via Line Out (Apple Dock or Fiio Line Out Adapter) I’m getting heavy distorted with clipping an low volume sound. Headphones out its working while connected to the dock.

Same reported in the mailing list (http://www.rockbox.org/mail/archive/rockbox-archive-2012-10/0006.shtml). Stock firmware, and rockboxed iPod Video (5.5G) working with the same setting.

I have no programing knowledge, but I’m willing to help!!

Rockboxutility barfs while creating talk files if it encounters unpronouncable charicters (japanese kanji) and does not continue afterwords resulting in talk files not being copied to the player.

I'm using a Sansa Clip Zip, which hasn't been added to the Player Type list. I've noticed that several MIDI files crash the player, reporting OUT OF MEMORY and MALLOC BARF errors. This is more likely to happen with MIDI files with many instruments, such as orchestral pieces. One example is a MIDI file for Debussy's La Mer. It tries to load all instruments into memory before playing and will crash without playing anything. I don't know if this can be fixed with better memory management or if my player just has too little RAM.

When I skip backwards 3 songs, Rockbox aborts with the following dump:

Data abort at 60077EB8
FSR 0x1

It happens always, playing or in pause. At the 3rd song dumps.

Regards!

I’m using 42a725f, and after frequency scaling implementation, sometimes the player slowdown extremely, being unusable (don’t stop playing, only small gaps in audio occur).
Less frequently, the player freezes.

I noticed it’s happens more frequently if the device is just powered on, and hits play. If I wait a few seconds before resuming play, the freezes are less frequent.

- How often does this happen?
* Frequently, about 2 o 3 times a day (4 hour average playback time, with several shutdown/boot in the middle)

- playing which file format (mp3, ogg, flac, mpc, etc…)?
* Confirmed with mp3 and flac

- which lcd is your device?
*st7783

First, thanks for existing …

I just bought a 8GB Sansa Clip+ and had issues when trying to listen 24 bit Flacs, which was instantly solved using RockBox. Well, the issue I’d like to report is that it freezes when I plug it into my Mac while having the SD card on it; to avoid this I have to remove the SD card, but this is kind of unconfortable.

Any advise?

Thanks in advance

I use a 64 GB MicroSD card in my Clip Zip and the stock firmware recognizes it. Rockbox recognizes it in the debug disk info screen and when connected to a computer via USB, I can read and write it through rockbox. However, when I try to access it or when I just check the regular rockbox info, rockbox does not show the SD card, nor can I play music from it.

The bug is also present in the current development version and is overall very similar to this one: https://www.rockbox.org/tracker/11798

I tried reinstalling rockbox and reformatting the SD card, but nothing worked.

This is a preliminary patch to add the key maps needed to compile plugins for the android port. It is mostly complete.

You will need to change plugins=”yes” line 2790 of file /tools/configure but this breaks the sdl port.

Most plugins seem to work well some don’t, I have not tested all plugins yet but will start as soon I post this.

To
a section to tools/configure that defines plugins=”yes” for the android port and “no” for the sdl port

Testing testing testing

patch probably breaks some targets because of logo.c defaulting to a generic keymap which I changed “commented out” and added #error No keymaps defined! so the compiler will not just over look it. Let me know what breaks and I will try to fix it.

I'm decided to make myself useful today and hammered out most of the rest the code needed to move http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/6048 along.
I'm starting a new entry since the old one is closed.
I'm hosting all the work I do at http://foolsh.no-ip.org/projects/atari2600/wiki/Wiki

2600box Plugin

* Added the .make file
* Added keymaps for most color targets
* Added to viewer.config loads *.bin files
* Fixed screen resizing for smaller screen targets
* Compiles against HEAD/master

I'm still testing sim builds at the moment.

There is some bad news, it crashes in the sims after a minute or two, and the buttons on my fuze+ don't work for some unknown reason but they do in the sim.

Everything else is looking pretty good. I'd like to hear back from people who have real hardware and can test the keymaps.

I've hunted this down here is what I found out.

from
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.Callback.html

public abstract boolean onKeyDown (int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
Since: API Level 1

Called when a key down event has occurred. If you return true, you can first call KeyEvent.startTracking() to have the framework track the event through its onKeyUp(int, KeyEvent) and also call your onKeyLongPress(int, KeyEvent) if it occurs.

We need to return true and call KeyEvent.startTracking() from /android/src/org/rockbox/RockboxFramebuffer.java then set the interrupt flag from /firmware/target/hosted/button-android.c and find out what is passed back after a key release and handle that. I may not be a great programmer but this looks like the ticket to removing the BUTTON_REL work around from /firmware/target/hosted/android/app/button-application.c

This patch adds a %ch tag that returns the number of channels in the current file.

Unfortunately, the large majority of codecs don't fill in this field in struct mp3entry. In the codecs covered by the rockbox testfiles collection, only atrac, cook and tta actually work.

I don't think it makes much sense to commit this with so few supported codecs, so help is appreciated on the codec side of things

USB is broken on mr500. I’ve tried r31467, but this has been the case since at least a few weeks ago.

Enabling logf in the relevant places causes rockbox not to boot, so wasn’t helpful.

Tested with r19410

If I boot with the headphones plugged in, sound always works (at least I didn’t have it fail yet). If I boot without headhones plugged in, and plug them in later, sound often doesn’t work. This may also depend on whether the player was turned off for a long time, whether the previous boot was USB mode, and whether the headphones were unplugged before or after shutting down.

This patch should save pitch and speed settings to nvram, and restore them after reboot if needed.

If I read the code correctly, there should be enough room in nvram (and anyway, the way this is done doesn't apply to any targets that actually use real nvram)

This code compiles, but apart from that it's completely untested.

Of course, since this patch increments the nvram data version, you'll lose resume info the first time you reboot.

firmware/export/usb_ch9.h comes from linux (include/linux/usb/ch9.h) with only trivial changes. The original doesn’t mention a specific license, so it probably is GPLv2
file basically contains only structure declarations and defines for things straight from the USB specification though, so I’m not sure if there is a real problem.

The H10 5G MTP needs a different bootloader than the UMS version (see http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverH10PortDevInfo#Build_a_Rockbox_Bootloader).
I’m not sure about the correct way to do this in configure, so I’ll leave it to someone who is.

When booting rombox or rockbox from flash on h1x0 with dircache enabled, chances are good that the thing will freeze. This started with r30393 / 7e14b935dfdcd808cfb0703d19a43efd11eeef16.

This still happens with d2f97da668836f5d825c9aaef0d58dea64fc4dd5

After a lot of trial and error I found out the following.

It appears that 3.10 on my Clip V2 writes a bad nvram.bin file. When I try to set another interface language, my Clip freezes. It does not react to input and the clock in the top line doesn’t update anymore. The FM radio kept on playing though. I haven’t tried all available settings in the menu, just the ones I occasionally use. But the problem never occurred anywhere else, just upon selecting another language.

When I delete nvram.bin, I can set a language. Then I switch the Clip off and on again, and the problem comes back.

See attached the nvram.bin which causes a freeze.

PS.: No Sansa Clip in the Player Type selection on the left.

On my Sansa c250v1, the starfield plugin crashes at the address 0x01F80394 with a data abort.

This patch is for the Sansa Fuze but easily modified for other players with scroll wheels.
apps/keymaps/keymap-[your player].c needs to be modified

This patch changes the keyboard input method for scroll wheel players to this:

Scrolling the wheel forward selects the column of the desired character moving right.
Reversing the wheel moves the keyboard cursor down (not left) to select the character.
Reversing again inserts the letter and resets the row and column to the top left.
Repeat…(right, down, right, down…)

The benefit is not leaving the scroll wheel or stopping to click anything.

The center select button is now always mapped to delete.
Left and right always move the edit position.
To make overshoot more forgiving reverse scrolling past the bottom of the keyboard moves the cursor to the top of the previous column.

The posted patch includes keymap changes for the Sansa Fuze. These are the changes required for a different target:
- { ACTION_KBD_UP, BUTTON_SCROLL_BACK, BUTTON_NONE },
- { ACTION_KBD_UP, BUTTON_SCROLL_BACK|BUTTON_REPEAT, BUTTON_NONE },
- { ACTION_KBD_DOWN, BUTTON_SCROLL_FWD, BUTTON_NONE },
- { ACTION_KBD_DOWN, BUTTON_SCROLL_FWD|BUTTON_REPEAT, BUTTON_NONE },
+ { ACTION_KBD_SCROLL_BACK, BUTTON_SCROLL_BACK, BUTTON_NONE },
+ { ACTION_KBD_SCROLL_BACK, BUTTON_SCROLL_BACK|BUTTON_REPEAT, BUTTON_NONE },
+ { ACTION_KBD_SCROLL_FWD, BUTTON_SCROLL_FWD, BUTTON_NONE },
+ { ACTION_KBD_SCROLL_FWD, BUTTON_SCROLL_FWD|BUTTON_REPEAT, BUTTON_NONE },

This patch will remove Morse code but preserves the unicode capability (not tested)

This patch modifies the CPU and peripheral bus clocks to hopefully gain some battery life. With this patch the CPU frequency can be either 31 or 186Mhz and the pclk is boosted from 31 to 62 Mhz while the CPU is boosted. The power draw of the CPU is proportional to the clock frequency and setting the frequency at or below what is required for playback keeps the power usage to a minimum because boosting to a frequency below 200Mhz is inexpensive. (Keeping the boosted CPU frequency below 200Mhz eliminates the need to wait for a voltage rise.)

I would appreciate feedback on battery life if anyone has the patience to run a battery bench.

When recording, as file size reaches 25.2MB and again at 52.4MB respectively, disk thrashing noise drowns out the recording for about 2 minutes.
This occurs at about 27.5 minutes if recording as mp3.
And about 5.25 minutes if recording as wav.

I am assuming that Rockbox is filling a cache and then dumping the file to disk all at once.

I would expect it to write quietly. Even if it where to write on the fly, the noise would be reduced to short bursts. 2 minutes of interruption is just not acceptable. I missed out on important information during those 2 minute periods.

How can we eliminate write noise altogether? Or at least in the recording itself.

Select ‘FM Radio’ Choose your station.
Then from the menu select ‘Recording’ Press ‘play’ or ‘Rec’ to begin recording.
Wait for file size to reach about 28MB. Then stop.

I can also provide recordings if necessary.

*note: I also had the USB cord attached to give better FM reception.

Rockbox Version: r15988-080102

Thanks

Rockbox already exists for several years (fortunately), however it doesn't include a contacts list plugin by default, most likely because no one had coded one until now. As it's something that sometimes becomes handy, I decided to write my own, and as it's a simple enough plugin I've written it in LUA, to serve the purpose of a contacts plugin, to have a working example of a LUA plugin (that is not a game) and to explore the (im)possibilities of the LUA interpreter of Rockbox.

So this task will handle the development of a contacts plugin. Attached goes a BETA (but already very complete) version of the plugin. Just copy to your device (any location) and "play" the file.
The database where the contacts are stored is located at the root of your player, in a file called contacts.txt. The name and location of this file is subject to change in future versions, but the way contents are stored will probably keep being the same, so you can start adding your contacts (you can edit the file in the PC as long as you keep the format valid for LUA interpretation).

Key features (already implemented):
- View first, middle and last name of the contacts just after you open the plugin (fixed name order)
- Add contacts (lots of fields, I won't be adding more for now)
- Delete contacts (permanently and without confirmation, take care)
- View contact fields (after selecting it in the menu)
- View specific fields in their own screen (where you can also clear and, in the future, edit them)
- (Should be) Compatible with any Rockbox target that interprets LUA because the interface is entirely made of standard RB menus
- Works (at least) on my iPod Nano 2nd Gen
- Wonderful LACK OF warranty that it will work or that the plugin won't delete your contacts accidentally. Use keeping in mind this is a BETA version

To be implemented (for sure):
- Edit contacts
To be implemented (when I have time):
- Order the way names are displayed (e.g. first→middle→last to last→first→middle)
- Search for contacts by inputing part of any of the fields content
- Order contacts by categories (that's why there's a "Category" field on them)
To be implemented (if my programming skills allow it):
- Associate a image file to a contact, which will be shown when the contact is selected (and if someone codes it, why not a pictureflow of contacts?)
- Import and export contacts as vCards
- More configurable settings

Another additional note is that the current code of the plugin is not in agreement with the Rockbox coding style guidelines, I've tried to keep the number of chars in each line under 80, but there are lines where this is false. Also, the tabs are double-space instead of four spaces. This will be corrected when I finish the plugin.

Please test on your player and share the results, as well as any bugs or suggestions you might find.

Build 20399

The database_changelog.txt is corrupted in that the wrong filename is associated with a track, this has happened before (pre v3.0), I had to write ascript to correct it.

Exampe row from log:

artist=”Teach Yourself” album=”Polish Conversation (Disc 3)” genre=”Books & Spoken” title=”Conversation 1: Booking A Hotel In Krakow” filename=”/iPod_Control/Music/Blur/Blur - Blur/14 Essex Dogs.mp3” composer=”<Untagged>” comment=”<Untagged>” albumartist=”Teach Yourself” grouping=”Conversation 1: Booking A Hotel In Krakow” year=”2006” discnumber=”3” tracknumber=”2” bitrate=”71” length=”640824” playcount=”0” rating=”0” playtime=”0” lastplayed=”0” commitid=”12” mtime=”955689818”

Build 21245

I have ''Start Screen' set to 'Resume Playback'.

When connecting the Ipod (from OFF) to the PC the Ipod boots and USB mode starts but also playback (the play > sign is display on the title bar).

The Ipod is not shows and not mounted on the PC.

On disconnecting USB I get 'data abort' and have to hard reset.

This patch wil allow the use of the power key to respond yes in the yes&no screen, cause if in absolute touch screen mode would be impossible to respond yes.
It also will enable the hotkey option.
Italian and english translation for the yes&no.

While in FM-Radio it isn’t possible to change the volume value, nor from the context menu, nor from the virtual 3×3 touch screen grid and nor from the .fms %T tag in absolute mode.
