problems with newest ipod 60g video build...

I was having some issues with testing the unsupported battery builds, therefore i did a complete restore on my ipod. I reinstalled rockbox, and the current SVN, that was updated yesterday. But i seem to be having the same issue as i was then. After about an hour of playing (just testing battery life), rockbox would start playing pulses of white noise. I would skip song/fastforward as well, but nothing, it would continue. Hard reset, and try again. After some time, it would resume with the white noise...
Current settings, using blurpod theme (runs off current builds solely). EQ activated, crossfeed on, crossfade on, replaygain album mode on, -20db volume, mp3's with varying bit rates from 128 to 320.
It is never the same song, nor the same time before it happens.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Darryl

Can't point in the right direction, but this happens to me too and I don't use EQ or crossfeed. It apparently doesn't happen as often as you though--I've been running Rockbox for a couple years now and up until Buschel's PP502x power-saving work was committed, had this happen occasionally ... maybe a dozen times. However, in the last few weeks (of testing the patch) and last couple days (since it was brought into SVN) I've had it happen a couple dozen times. At first I thought it was related to the glitches I was getting on crossfade events (which I just opened
a FS entry
for) but have since realized it's not--it appears to be codec-independent (as ddoonie's experience confirms) and still happens with boosted CPU.
Compared to what you said ddoonie, I don't find that I need to do a hard reset to fix it. Stopping playback and restarting works, and skipping back a track or two sometimes works. And now that I've written that, I'm wondering if we're even talking about the same thing... geeze.
I'm at a loss.

ryran, i believe we do have similar issues... For the most part, i am able to do a soft reset, but still on occasion, i have to do a hard reset.
At least i'm not going crazy!

I apologize? I read the guidelines, but still don't know what I have done wrong... Does this belong in another forum? It was in regards to "They are for discussion and questions relating to Rockbox...".
Well i apologize regardless... won't respond in this thread any longer

The guidelines rather clearly state that if nobody has replied, use the modify button rather than posting again.

I've read many "unsolved" posts related to this screeching, high-pitched noise involved in crossfading, and decided to open this task:
http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/8651
Please check it out and let know (there) if you feel it's the same bug! You might find useful information. There are even sample recordings of the noise problem, so that you can accurately identify it and compare.
Thanks
