Probleme with radio remote

[Insane]

Hi all,

I use the radio remote for my Ipod video 80Go "without" problems with rockbox in V17054
I can just change the volume level with the remote, not on ipod, and all others button don't response.

I use the radio remote because my jack 3.5 is dead... i don't wanna buy a new Ipod xD

But when i Update rockbox at version 17098 i can't hear sound with the radio remote :-(
I can't listen to the music now....

Someone have a solution??? Thanks!!

PS: sorry for my english, i'm french! :-)

Modifyng words: V17074 to V17054 sorry^^

See how well you can pinpoint when this started and file a bug report.

Thanks for answering

Hi,

there was a change in r17095 that might have influenced the behaviour of accesories (see http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/8603 ).

Could you test if your remote still works with the daily build from 2008-04-13 (r17091)?
You can find it here: http://www.rockbox.org/dl.cgi?bin=ipodvideo64mb

O.K----> tested It with 2008-04-13 r17091, it works correctly...I have a sound output and i can change volume level with the remote, (only by the remote, not on Ipod like in my old version-----> V17054)

[Chronon]

Good.  So that strongly suggests that the r17095 is the change that makes your accessory not work properly.  The discussion on the tracker did not have input from any people with accessories.  I'm sure the developers will be interested in your input. 

I think that only being able to change the volume with your remote is the correct behavior.  It should be getting audio from the line-out in the iPod's dock.  As such, the volume controls on the iPod should not affect this signal.  The output volume should be controlled by the remote. 

I would say that you should post a bug report.  Mention this discussion in the bug report.  Once that's completed come back here and post the Flyspray number so people can easily check it.

where must i post for the bug reporting?

Sorry

Hi insane,

I've undone my change with r17111, your radio remote should work again now.

Of course I'm interested in finding a better solution as the power supply drains a lot of battery even if not used or needed. So, can you do some tests for me?

Can you please go into the debug menu ("View i/o ports") and watch the GPIO states when inserting and removing your radio remote? I expect some of the values to change when doing so. Please post your results here.

To any other users who have accessories to test: If you've got iPods please also post your results here and state what kind of accessory and iPod (3G, 4G, ...) you are using.

Thanks a lot for your support.

ok:^^

[Buschel]

Thanks, sounds promising 

Are you able to build rockbox or are you using pre-compiled builds?

[Insane]

i modify existig files on my Ipod.

I download the latest version and copy theses files:

- Database.ignore
- Rockbox.ipod
- Rockbox-info.txt
- tagnavi.config
- viewers.config

And i overwrite existings ones on my ipod

[Buschel]

You are downloading rockbox as zip-file, correct? You do not compile the source code by yourself?

[Insane]

changed my reply, sorry, i have used of an online translate

Ps: yes, i download zip files-----Sombody say newbie?

[Chronon]

You asked about where to file bug reports earlier.  For future reference, do this by following the Tracker link labeled "bugs" in the side bar. . .
<---------  over there.  (You will need to sign up for a separate account on the tracker.  But this only takes a minute.)

I give this information for future usage.  It seems you have gotten the attention of the right person.

[Insane]

lol, thank you so much for what you do!

i'm definitively fan of rockbox!
continue!

And if you need help for anothers things, i'm here for testing! xD
