interruptions while playing songs

<< < (4/6) > >>

Sherv:
Album art definitely seems to be intimately linked to this problem...interesting.

I was experincing the same issue with my H10, but I also own an H340 and there wasn't any problem on that player. The only difference between the two units (as far as Rockbox) was that I was using the default Rockbox WPS on my H340 (because I couldn't get the fonts to display correctly on the WPS that came with the theme I was using) & on the H10 the fonts weren't an issue so I didn't change the WPS at installation on that unit.  I changed the WPS on the H10 to the Rockbox default and the problem went away. The WPS that came with the theme displayed the next song queued to play so maybe that was the problem?  Seems weird... ???

dip:
I have the same problem with my iPod 80GB 5.5G. I had the impression that it started with integration of album art into svn. Previously I used the inofficial album art patch and never had this problem. Now stuttering appears very often after turning on the iPod. So I also have the impression that the problem is related to album art.

However, stuttering now also appears when I scroll through long lists in the database (e.g. browsing artists) while playing music, when I scroll through a long list of files using the file browser or when I scroll through a long now playing list. This did also not happen previously.

dip:
One further note: I also have the impression that with introducing the stuttering problem the disk spinns much longer after having turned on my iPod than before. It takes sometimes almost 1-2 minutes before the iPod reacts on any key press after it has been turned on.

Sherv:
Ooh, good point! The disk is indeed spinning intensely during said pauses and unresponsiveness. What is curious is that at times the drive will suddenly enter a long stretch of activity without anything from the user prompting it. That is, I could be playing a playlist and then at one point the drive will begin spinning and it appears that data is being accessed for a long period of time (upwards of 5 minutes or longer but I haven't accurately timed this to give a better idea).
