Updating Rockbox... Things to think about ?

(1/1)

FaxX:
Hi Rockboxed People,

i want to update my rockbox build on my iPod Video/80.

I want to keep my settings.

Is it enough to replace the the rockbox.ipod in the .rockbox directory, or do i have to overwrite the whole .rockbox directory with something like "replace older files"...

Thanks,

FaxX

AlexP:
Replace the whole directory, and this will still preserve your settings.

They are in a file that is created by rockbox and is not in the zip, therefore your settings will not be overwritten.

crescentfresh:
Recent builds have been having issues playing albums on multiple different platforms (it usually seems to skip over tracks 3 and 10 for some reason).  It's something you might want to think about before updating if you're not currently experiencing the issue.

AlexP:
Well, backups are a good idea anyway.

As a note, I don't experience this problem on any of my targets - gigabeat F60, iriver H140 or Sansa E260, and I update daily.

I moved the post regarding problems pausing while buffering.
It was not really a continuation of the original question.

The topic has been moved to Audio Playback and Playlists.
