Database not detecting songs....
zajacattack:
On second thought, try deleting .rockbox and unzipping a new copy, then try to build the database and describe EXACTLY what happens.
Bensawsome:
Well I did that and it said building database and the number kept going up and it said please reboot to enable and I rebooted and it said "building configuration 1/9" and went to the start screen and I went into database again and it said it wasn't ready and to press select to build and I pressed select and it said "building 0 found"
I have over 2000 files on my mp3 player. Would that affect it?
Bensawsome:
zajacattack helped me. I had too many songs on it. :P
Thanks again zajacattack :D

I've been having exactly the same problem with an iRiver H10 20gb. I tried to increase the maximum number of songs in the rockbox settings to the maximum, but has made no difference to the database.
What happens when I turn on my player is:
When rockbox starts up it says "building configuration 1/9" for about 1 second then goes to the normal rockbox menu screen.
When I select Database I get the Database not ready message and the option to initialize or to exit.
When I select initialize now it says "building 0 found".
I have left it for about 45 minutes to initialize but it never does anything. I have tried initializing it from the General Settings - Database menu, but that does nothing either. Nor does unhiding all the folders, adding database.unignore files, or updating the database (in the background).
The player had been working fine on Rockbox for about 6 months before this happened, the only thing that I did was add some song files. I have since rremoved most of the ones I added in case they were corrupt and therefore corrupting the database, but to no avail.
I have used about 13gigs of the 20. I would like to be able to use most of the storage space if possible since the large capacity was one of the main reasons I bought it.
Please let me know if the number of songs thing is going to be an ongoing issue or if there is some other way around it.
Cheers

I have over 11000 songs on my DAP with the 60 GB storage full and the database initialises just fine - total number of songs is not the issue. What do you have both max files in a directory and max playlist size set to?
