D'oh! I feel silly now. ::)
Some of the files were off screen and didn't notice. Thanks again, Llorean.

--- Quote from: Gamesoul Master on July 27, 2007, 02:53:32 PM ---Makes sense. I actually bought a pair of Sennheiser earbud headphones that output 112 dB (the highest I could find for earbud headphones), just because all the headphones I tried elsewhere couldn't handle the high volume (and the few that could still crackled and such). The pair I got are really nice, because they go into the ear, which helps cut out most outside noise and sends the music directly into the ear (quite enjoyable quality). I know it's crazy and such, but I got used to it years ago when my father would blast his older metal/hard rock music (this being back when I was like 5 years old).

that's crazy to listen at such high volumes, I am using a pair of Supferfi 5 Pros and I only listen with my iPod video at around the 20% volume settings. It's 119db sensitivity btw for the superfis i have.
I already have a little hearing damage on one side from listening to music too loudly since years ago, and i treasure whatever hearing i have now, i suggest you do likewise bro
Davide-NYC:
Put "test_codec" in the "#if CONFIG_CODEC == SWCODEC" section of /apps/plugins/SOURCES instead of the "/* plugins common to all models */" section.
That way if you want to compile for a HWCODEC target (like compiling a sim of the archos) you won't get errors. ;)
Chronon:
Thanks for the tip, Davide-NYC. I'll keep that in mind for future use. However, my current targets are all SWCODEC units and it compiled fine. I haven't had time to run tests yet, though.
TexasRockbox:
About 17 years ago I went to a concert by Eric Johnson at Austin's old City Colleseum. Awful acoustics, no ear plugs. One of the most excrutiating experiences of my listening life. My ears rang for hours afterwards. I never went to another concert without using them. The earplugs muffle the sound but it's worth not losing my hearing because I enjoy music too much.
For most serious listening I use some Stax electrostatics. I've never actually tried to listen to any compressed music (MP3, OGG, ATRAC) using them. I should give it a try. I'm quite pleased with the quality I'm getting with Q7 Ogg Apple 5G Video Rockbox.
The only AAC I'm familiar with is the ACC (Plus?) used by XM. At their bitrate (96kbps?) if doesn't hold up for headphone listening to me.
What AAC setting is the general consensus for transparancy with Rockbox, if attempted on a Apple 5G? Or is AAC just not recommeded at all?
