RButil can't find my iRiver
mlind:
For the first time I tried RbutilQt, but I couldn't browse to my device.
At least I couldn't see it where I would expect it.
I have a iRiver H120.
My computer is an Intel iMac with Mac OS X 10.4.10 (Tiger)
I did in the filetree see some unexpected strange stuff that might have been my unit, but didn't do any "trial and error" stuff.
Domonoky:
If Rbutil cant autodetect your device or the mount point, you have to select your device in the List. (in your case the h120) .
You also have to give the Mountpoint of the device.
This is the location where the filesystem of your device is aviable on the computers filesystem. On Windows this would be something like "E:" on Linux something like "/media/ipod" and on Mac something like "/Volumes/ipod".
The Browse button allows you to browse to this location (but is limited to the /volumes dir, where the device are normally on mac). If you have it somewhere else, you can also enter the path by hand.
i hope i could help..

I tried to run RButil from my DAP and got some strange results. The list of targets was messed up (several blank entries interspersed in the list) and didn't display my target. I moved RButil to my desktop and ran it and everything worked normally.

The current release of rbutil (m1.0.1) doesn't utilize the USB IDs and therefore can't detect the H100 -- it can detect the player if it's mounted and Rockbox is already installed (by the file /.rockbox/rockbox-info.txt, which is part of the build).
There have been various fixes and improvements to rbutil and a new release should come in the next couple of days.

Make sure you _don't_ have a file called rbutil.ini in the same location as the rbutil binary -- having such a file can create such problems. This is due to the (fading) support for an external rbutil.ini file which will be used in favor of the one that is built-in to the binary. I'm planning to remove support for an external file completely as it turned out to give no real benefit (but more trouble instead).

Okay, thanks bluebrother! That was indeed the problem in my case.
