When playing a sequence of two songs Rockbox on my HTC Desire S always crashes. I first had r30576-110921, and now it is r31516-120102. Cropped versions of the songs can be downloaded here:

They still reproducably crash my Rockbox. I found a workaround, though: mp3 versions of the same songs play all right. Rockbox for me still is the only known way to have gapless playback on my phone. Thanks for that guys!

Buy the way: the same ogg files made no problem in Rockbox on my old iPod nano.

I was very happy with rockbox r13054-070407: it never crashed, allowed gapless playback, using the vorbis file format, and crossfading (also between mp3 and ogg) on my iPod nano (1st generation). I used it for almost a year at about 2 hours per week on average.

Now with rockbox r16727-080321 and a built from a week or so before I have stuttering in the transition between mp3 and ogg (as described in  FS#8597 ) and had several crashes. The first two happened within an hour and one crash was preceded by strange noises from the player. There was a larger audience, which is why I quickly restarted the player and do not recall the error messages, but they were two of quite different kinds. Yesterday in a test run I had “data abort at 400002E0 (0)”. In the similar bug description  FS#8692  Marc Guay replies “random errors happen from time to time with any machine”, but I’d rather not have my player crash, of course.

I’m happy with the old r13054-070407, but I’m also keen on using up-to-date software. Anyway I’d like to a) thank the rockbox team for their great work! and b) maybe try a newer built soon and try to track down the problem. My crossfade settings are:
crossfade: always
crossfade fade in duration: 6
crossfade fade out duration: 6
