Archos playback problem

(1/1)

Bob_From_Mars:
Hello everyone,

I put Rockbox on my Archos Jukebox Recorder V1 a few weeks ago, but I haven't gotten to play with it until today. Doing so caused a problem to come up.

It seems that during playback, it will randomly mute and go into the root menu. I can select "resume Playback" and it will go back into my song, but a few seconds in (as long as it has taken to select resume, and for it to load). This happens really frequently and makes it impossible to use my player, as I have to hold it in my hand and continuously tell it to resume playing.

Is this a known bug in the firmware, or is it possible I've messed something up? Help would be appreciated.

LinusN:
It could be that your batteries are failing. When the batteries are bad, the voltage drops significantly when the hard drive operates. The button driver misinterprets the buttons, and falsely detects a Stop. Try another set of batteries.

Bob_From_Mars:
What you say makes sense, because when the harddrive spun up is when it would quit. I'll try charging the batteries and see what happens.

Bob_From_Mars:
What you said was true, charging the batteries caused the problem to stop. Seems like a bit of an odd bug though.

Thanks a lot for your help :)
