Strange bookmark behavior

Well, we haven't released Rockbox for the sansa, so that solves that?
AlexP:
I already warned you in a PM. STOP the personal attacks. If you feel that someone hasn't understood you, fine. Calling them a liar for thinking they have is NOT acceptable.
P.S. People work on what they want to (this being volunteering after all). If someone wants to work on Doom and not something else, then that is their choice. Neither you nor I have the right to tell someone how to spend their free time.
I'm leaving this thread open for now in case you feel like being constructive. Any more flaming will not be tolerated.

Well, I fixed a problem I found, based on your description, so technically you found it. ;) (Yes, I realize I'm probably splitting hairs here...)
--- Quote ---For some reason, he kept insisting that I was trying to resume a file that no longer existed, no matter how I tried to explain it.

That was the only way I could see the problem happening (i.e., the top entry in the folder .bmark file referred to a file that didn't exist, in combination with load last bookmark set to yes).

Apparently you're missing one important point: IF A DEVELOPER CANNOT REPRODUCE YOUR PROBLEM, THEY CANNOT FIX IT. So, if you want to mail us your Sansa, we can look into it a little more. If you want to spend some time helping us experience the problem ourselves, we can look into it a little more.
If you want to complain about software that ISN'T RELEASED (and try going to the Releases page, and it'll be pretty clear, so unless you want to claim illiteracy, or sheer laziness, your excuses about us releasing unfinished software are frankly laughable) some more, why not actually try to move toward solving the problem, instead of telling us you didn't know you were playing with an unreleased build because you didn't actually read the information available to you before installing the software.
And as for Doom running, believe it or not, porting Doom is a LOT easier than maintaining our playback system and all its myriad features. Keeping playback working with all the various metadata related things is nowhere near as simple as you seem to think it is within this limited environment. If you can tell me how to prevent 250 people from working on whatever they want, when I have no control over them by means such as being able to say "I'll fire you if you don't fix bugs instead of writing plugins", and now to contact everyone on Earth before they hear about our project by other means, and tell them "Don't bother contributing at all if you don't plan to only contribute bug fixes, and not things like games that don't really matter", we can start discussing your dreams of a focused open source project. But unless you have no magical contribution to this, when a random person shows up out of the blue with a new game for us, we'll go ahead an add it, even if the time could've been spent better somewhere else, because honestly: it's already been spent.
Frankly, you've made it rather apparent you have no clue about the difficulty of developing various areas of our codebase, what the project is, or how open source actually works within the context of this project. And if your next post isn't an apology saying "Wow, I didn't realize these things, I thought you guys actually had a means of controlling every person on Earth, but I was wrong" or at least something similar, I'm going to decide that you really have no interest in seeing your problem fixed, and just wanted to spread bile and venom about open source, and remove this discussion, and you, entirely from the forums.

Is any way to access builds that are older than 30 days? I would like to try to find a version for the X5 with functioning bookmarks.
