FS#12575 - DAP hangs in last track of FLAC album with HD activity light Illuminated continuously
H140; R-box v3.10 and current.
codec; libFlac v1.1.0. 20030126
Embedded cue sheet; No.
When playing my only FLAC album (6 tracks), I can reproduce the following condition at will,
The player hangs in the last track, player does not respond to buttons and only a hard reset will fix it.
I can consistently reproduce the above bug as follows,
I start track 1 and let it play for a few sec's, then FF to 5 sec's before the end of track 1,
let it play the remaining 5 sec's of track 1 and let it change into track 2,
Play a few sec's of track 2, then FF to 5 sec's before the end of track 2, let it change into track 3,
Play a few sec's of track 3, then FF to 5 seconds before the end of track 3, let it play etc… ( I repeat the above until I'm in the last track),
when it has changed into the last track, FF to 5 sec's before the end of the last track and let it play, when play time reaches 1~0 sec's before the end of the last track, the player hangs in that last track with the disk activity light on continuously, player does not respond to buttons and only a hard reset will fix it.
I found what was causing the above bug.
I had "Auto Change Directory" set to Random, but my "Folder_advance_dir txt file didn't have the correct path required, hence the player would hang on the last track.
I corrected the path in "folder_advance_dir" and R-Box plays as advertised now.
Wouldn't it be better if R-box could fail gracefully, instead of hanging, if "Random folder advance" is set and the is no directory in the Folder Advance list ?.
yes, that would definitely be better. Rockbox should not hang on malformed or corrupted inputs.
