overactive dir cache?

(1/4) > >>

squidkidd:
First off, I'm using the 070712 daily build on my 80gb ipod video.  It seems to work normally except that dir cache wants to scan my disk about every other time I restart my player.  This does include when I restart without loading the original apple firmware or do a usb connection.

I did some searching and found some people with similar issues, but they seemed to be using an unsupported build or a very old build.  It doesn't do it every time, but like I said, roughly every other time I restart.  Any idea why this would happen and how I could prevent it (without disabling dir cache)?

Thanks,
Brian

Febs:
I had a similar problem a while back.  Running a chkdsk /f fixed it.

squidkidd:
Thanks for the suggestion Febs.  I tried that and it did not appear to help.  I also just loaded the current build and that did not appear to help either.  The player still faithfully scans the disk on startup every other time it's reset...

bascule:
Your post is a little bit confusing. Do you mean resetting (Select + Menu) or shutdown and restart (Long Play to shutdown, Select to restart)?

If you are just shutting Rockbox down properly and restarting you should not see the behaviour you described.

However, if you are going into Apple firmware, connecting USB, connecting to computer etc. then you will.

squidkidd:
sorry, I mean shutting down properly(long play) and then restarting(select).  I do this one time and it turns on normally, going straight into now playing, then I turn it off properly, restart it and it scans disk.  If I do it again, it does not scan disk, then the next time, I get another scan of the disk.
