The sim refuses to play and outputs a “get_adx_metadata: error, couldn’t determine ADX type” message for some ADX files from a videogame.

This is present in 3.10 RC and in older releases as well (3.0 and 3.6 tested).

I’ve attached two of the files, one that plays correctly (clover) and another that doesn’t (casino).

Present in builds r31036, 40, 42 and 45, at least.

I initially thought it was somewhat reproducible in a simulator due to the absence of the top/bottom quickscreen defaults, but it seems those were intentionally removed, so the sim is performing correctly.
However, my X5V freezes every time I hold REC long enough to call the quickscreen. Sometimes the quickscreen is displayed but cannot be interacted with, others the display freezes immediately.

3.9.1 and earlier releases, that still show the top and bottom defaults, seem to have no issues. Assigning functions to the top and bottom slots before using the quickscreen does not appear to prevent the problem.

It is mostly noticeable around 5 and 20 seconds into the attached sample file.

Prior to installing release 3.9.1 I had been using Rockbox build r28437-101101, made after the Coldfire bugfix in  FS#11710 , which as far as I could tell had no problems with mpc files.

Additional information: my Clip+ running rel 3.9.1 plays mpc files fine, however the %fc tag in my wps now reports all mpc files as Unknown codec type.
The %fc bug is also present with rel 3.9.1 on the X5, but didn’t happen when running build r28437-101101.

Some Musepack SV8 files files cause the player to freeze near the end of the track. Usually in the last 5 seconds or so, but in my limited testing I found a file (sample uploaded) where it happens at about 20 seconds from the end of the track. I have to turn off the system with the power button because it doesn’t respond to anything else, nor does it output any error message, it just freezes in the wps.

I’ve read http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/11476 and it doesn’t appear to be the same issue since none of the files in http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/A-codecs/musepack/sv8/ cause any problems.

All was fine in release 3.6 up until the daily build of July 11 at least, the next daily build I installed was from October 16 and since then I started to have problems with MPC.
