Hi,
I've been using my iPod Video 5th Gen 30 GB for approx. 1 year. I Rockboxed it from the very beginning. I never had any problems until now.
But, starting from the beginning. My library comprises of ogg (converted from FLAC) and mp3 files. I've erased all the tags from all my files, except for the name of the album, artist, track as well as track number and disk number; I've erased album covers as well. Up to date everything worked fine, including my Eminem and 2Pac albums. However, recently I changed my mind and I added album covers.
First problem (with Eminem album) - previously it worked without any problems, but recently I've played it and none of the song was played; every song was skipped. I guess that I found the solution - it seems to me that the size of the album cover was causing the problem i.e. it's size was 1400x1400, I've changed into 300x300 and songs are playing without any problems.
Second problem (with 2Pac albums) - previously it worked without any problems, but today on two particular albums one song on each album was skipped after playing it for about 1 or 2 minutes; the rest of the songs were played witout any problems.
To add, yesterday I had some problems with iPod so I restored it via iTunes (before that I've formatted the iPod disk via Wndows) and then I've installed Rockbox (standar 3.13 version), so I have the up to date version.
Please help. Do you think that the album covers can created those problems?
