Sansa E200 - Playback Problems..

<< < (3/4) > >>

Lear:
Data aborts in that range could mean it is a buffering bug. I get these too from time to time when resuming playback, but they're usually not easy to reproduce (and a seek or a skip during buffering can be enough to avoid it). The setup has to be exactly right for it to happen, including stuff like if album art or the dircache is enabled or not.

Ah so the order and location of the files could matter?  I guess a simple test would be to copy one of the files to a folder by itself and try playing it (thats what I did) and see if it works that way.

Here's the latest update..

I noticed the Bitrate was variable on the Spears' track list, with the majority of them being of lower kbps. I went ahead and tried to d/l a better, higher end version, and it seemed to work, as the album plays through with no errors or crashes.

The Gary Numan track, "Pray", was ripped from the actual CD which I own. I also noted that one had been ripped at 128 kbps. I dl Audiograbber and re-ripped it, which a higher bitrate, and that album now plays perfectly on there.

Only one I can't get to play is the 01 - "Dirrty Slave 4 U", the Christina Aguilera-Britney Spears mash-up by DJ Tom. That one crashes both with, as well as without, the cover art. I just deleted, because at this point, it's not worth stressing, as everything else now plays.

If either of you can figure out what was causing it to crash, great, but either way, everything, for the most part, seems to be okay now.

Lear:
Not so much location, but the order of files, and the exact timing of different events in the buffering thread. So you'll need at least two files for problems to happen.

Llorean:
Is this documented in a flyspray task somewhere? It seems like if it's a problem devs occasionally have, some documentation in the tracker would be helpful so we can point people somewhere when they report it here in the forums...
