Long delay when skipping songs

[Strife89]

Most likely (I also use a Sansa). The Sansas use flash memory instead of slower hard drives, so I can see why these settings are omitted.

I have also been having this issue, and in addition sometimes when skipping forward or back the song will not play and just hangs on 0.00. The only way to get any song to play then is to go back into the file browser and select that or another song. Very frustrating.

One interesting thing to note, is that my friend is having a similar issue on his ipod which does NOT have rockbox installed, but just using the apple firmware.
This makes me wonder if the problem might be from initializing the ipod with a new version of itunes which may have a bug in it. I recently had my ipod replaced by apple, so I initialized it with the newest version of itunes before loading rockbox on it. Is it possible that the problem some people are having might arise from the initialization and not from the rockbox firmware?
Hopefully someone with more technical knowledge of what actually happens when an ipod is initialized can shed some light on this...

maybe someone changed the menu for sansa's?

It was temporarily disabled, the current build should have it under the Settings->System->Disk.

Is this still a problem? Things seem fine to me on an iPod 5.5G (80G).

I'll check the latest build.  My notes here:

EDIT:

Response time seem quicker but the tags still lose their way.  A separate issue, Directory Change still doesn't work with file skipping (r16892).

The current build is 17219. Why are you referencing 16892?

Er, maybe because you're replying to a post from 23 days ago?  That build was current on March 30.

Weird, I didn't look at the "Edit" time. This showed up to me as a (New) post for some reason. =/ It was even on the front page for me...
