warning 0000002

<< < (2/2)

petur:
clipping doesn't cause the warnings, the buffering system does.

How much free space is there on the disk?
Maybe you could defrag it (or format and install rockbox again).

I have seen the warning pop up when diskspace was getting low (already even at <10GB free on a fragmented disk)

edit: warning 2 means an overflow in the encoder buffer which is a hint that it wasn't able to flush to disk in time.

paquito:
There was about 12gb free after the recording was done.

I will try a format and defrag tonight as well.

But the thing is.. i have been using the player for years with the older rockbox versions without problems. So i might go back to older rockbox or use the recording enhancement pack. I should have thought about 'don't fix it if it aint broken :) '

gevaerts:
Well, the longer you use it, the more fragmented it gets...

petur:
The earlier version has one big PCM buffer which might allow a bit slower writes as the current one (where an PCM and MP3 buffer exist). So it might work fine with the earlier version, but it might not tomorrow when fragmentation gets even worse.

But the earlier version will just abort the recording when the overflow occurs, so in stead of a glitch you miss the entire recording.

That said, it is a fine balance between watermarks that do not cause overflows on one side, and battery life (spinups) on the other.

Maybe jhMikeS can add is 0.02
