Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
If i will connect ipod to a pc with a firewire cable (if i will be able to find one), can i measure the current under windows?
I understand that rockbox is a volunteer effort, but another 4-5 days without a player is just too bad.Of course, if i had another player, i would run usual benchmarks, but this ipod is my only one.
Second point - the LCD controller sleep work is post 3.2, no? This alone would easily explain all the battery life differences you have seen.EDIT: Yes it was (post 3.2). This (FS #9890) and FS #8523 (Disable WPS updates when backlight is off) plus the DMA drive patch you applied add up to a quite significant power savings. And FS #8668 - buschel's GUI boost lowers the base clock to 15Mhz, IIRC - leading to significant power savings on non-boosting codecs like FLAC.Add them up and I am nowhere near shocked you get near twice the runtime of 3.2
