Strange bookmark behavior
adamf663:
I just switched to using rockbox on an apple ipod gen 5.5. Previously I ran it on cowan iaudio x5.
I'm having some strange behavior when resuming from a bookmark (from the 'recent bookmarks list'). I don't use the database/id3 feature; I always use the file view to select.
What happens when I resume a bookmark is that it displays the playback screen with the correct track location for a brief instant, and then jumps to a file view of the root directory. If I hit play, it plays the correct track, but at the beginning.
If I hold down the play/pause button to make rockbox stop playback and then select a bookmark, it works correctly.

I can confirm that behaviour for the gigabeat (I have gotten so used to it I automatically press stop now). Thanks for bringing it up. I'll to file a bugreport on flyspray for it.

Okay, there it is: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/8215

I've seen this (or at least similar) on my iPod 5g. I can't recreate it with any consistency at all but it happens frequently enough to be annoying when it does happen. I haven't reported it because of the lack of reproducibility, and it always seems to happen when I'm out and by the time I come back to a computer it's out of my mind.
I use the "Recent Bookmarks" menu item in which I have the most recent bookmark for each of my 5 playlists (2 of them, the most frequenly used, dynamic. I'm not sure if it only happens on dynamic, or only happens on static, or happens on both. I'll pay more attention the next time it happens).

I have a similar problem on the Sandisk Sansa e250r. It records the bookmark(only when accessing the track from the file menu, not the database), but when I try and go back to it, it starts at the beginning of the track, but the timeline shows the "recorded" time of the bookmark. I can't get it to resume the bookmark at the right place in the track.

It's not perfect, but for the Sansa, I find that after you resume play using the bookmark, if you rewind the bookmarked track for a few seconds, it does resume the track close to where you left off ( i.e., the small amount you rewind is the difference).
