Trying to figure out exactly how the new rockbox build broke my wps screen.

<< < (3/4) > >>

lalittle:
Here is the line in the wps that appears to display the graphic battery info.  Can anyone tell me what it is about this that the newer rockbox builds don't like?  This worked before (February builds) but now the battery info doesn't consistently stay on the screen -- sometimes it's there, but other times this area of the screen is just blank.

In looking at this line, I discovered that it's the same line repeating six times.  If I add hard returns after each ";" I end up with this:

%t1%pe%?bp;
%t1%pe%?bp;
%t1%pe%?bp;
%t1%pe%?bp;
%t1%pe%?bp;
%t1%pe%?bp

Can anyone tell me why this is?  I didn't design this part of the wps, so I have no idea why this would be the case, but it doesn't make sense to me as it is.  Could this be related to the problem?

[EDIT by NicolasP: merged two similar posts ]

Thanks,

I seem to have found a relationship between the disappearing battery graphic and plugging in the iPod to power.

I boot the iPod, play a song, and the battery graphic is present.  I then plug it into power (car adapter) at which point the battery graphic changes to indicate "charging."  When I unplug the iPod, the graphic changes back to the battery level graphic, then disappears.  It does not show up again until I restart the iPod, at which point the battery "level" graphic will remain until I once again plug in the iPod.

Thanks for any help with this,

Larry

If it's the same line repeated 6 times, have you tried it with just one line? Remove the other
five lines, as you've pointed out, they're the exact same and therefore unnecessary. Maybe this
was supposed to be an animation but never got finished?

I tried it with just one line and I still get the same type of behavior -- inconsistent display of the battery graphics.  There must be something "wrong" with the line/s in the newer builds, but I just can't tell what the problem might be.  All I know is that it worked fine before, but not with the new rockbox builds.

If anybody could take a look at the line and tell me if something looks out of whack, I'd appreciate it.  As far as I can tell, it looks like it should work to me, but I'm not very experienced with this stuff.

Thanks,

I figured out the disappearing battery graphic.  It was the presence of "%xdF" in the ?bl section of the line.  There is no "F" picture, so it appears that it was placing a blank in that section.  I removed the "%xdF" from the ?bl list, and the problem went away.

I also took out the "%t" from the line, as well as all the repeats, since I couldn't find any reason for the subline function on that line.  If anyone knows of a reason that this line contained the subline capability, please let me know.

Thanks,

Larry
