Database troubles

(1/2) > >>

jjb123:
I recently installed RockBox on my video iPod and it worked well for a while, but all of a sudden when I go into the database and select a song it tries to play a random non-existent music file, for example WMUJ.mp3, which is obviously not a song file. What should I do? Thanks.

WMUJ.mp3 sounds like a filename for a song added with itunes. You sure that the file doesn't exist?

jjb123:
Pretty sure, I have all the syncs and such on iTunes turned off, so it shouldn't be adding anything. How would I check though?

Chronon:
One option would be to attach the iPod to your computer and search the drive for that filename.  

When you say "tries to play" do you mean that playback fails?  Please describe in more detail.  It will also be helpful to know which revision of Rockbox you are using.

jjb123:
Well, I press a song title in the database that I put on the device via windows explorer. I press play, it trys to load some random .mp3 file and then says file not found. It does it for every song.
