Faulty playback on Ipod Nano 4Gb 1st Gen
tvg:
The latest working build:
13990, for IPod Nano 1st gen: http://tinyurl.com/2btboy
Update:
The problem starts from r14004
"Clean up PP502x CPU clock setup code and use the full 80MHz when boosted"
Hi. I'm expierenced RockBox user (Cowon IAudio X5L).
I bought used IPOD Nano 4g and installed Rockbox onto it. I'm almost satisfied, all seemed to work.
But...
MP3 can be played well. FLACs (5th level) play badly or even not play at all. I start to play FLAC and: it plays 5-10 seconds, then skips to next file. Sometimes FLAC plays straight ahead with terrible glitches in headphones. One time I even encountered a message: "bad data at address 000000..." on white screen.
But! Sometimes (i woke up in the morning, the IPOD laid on a desk overnight, untoched, calm) it playd FLAC well! I started FLAC (50 minutes), it played and played well... Then I scrolled and it still played well! The I turned ON CUE support and a bunch of other options and rebooted the RockBox.
Then the playback was broken again.
It seems that with original firmware the playback is OK. Please tell me about more steps I need to investigate the probleb. I think, the Ipod itself is not broken. Thanks.
P. S. It would be great, if it played all the files well. Very good firmware.

It helps if you give the exact text of the error message, rather than generalizing as it's very important.
Also, it helps if you tell exactly which SVN revision you're using.
tvg:
I encountered text message only 1 time.
Usually no any messages, just terrible clicks, or usually just skipping to the next tracks.
Often the track is not played at all: it displays sign "Play" (">"), but the time is not counting and no sound.
AND: this was 27.7.2007.
Now I just installed 27.6.2007 - and it's great!
If you, developers, need, I cound use a frame and find, from what date the RockBox on Ipod Nano plays faulty.
Llorean:
I asked for a specific SVN revision, not a date. There are many builds made each day. Are you saying you used the daily build (which we specifically do not recommend)? We even clearly state in the guidelines that you should be using a CURRENT build before reporting anything. The Daily is *not* current.
tvg:
SORRY, really I used current build instead of 27.7.2007.
r13860-070712 - no problem.
r14031-070727 - there IS a problem. And it hanged during playback just after I catched SVN number from About menu.
I think the problem is not in FLAC decoder, but in 'disk driver' or with memory management, because after faulty FLAC playback mp3s are also cannot be normally played.
Now I'm trying to find the daily build, which had introduced this bug.
