I don't have "Charge During USB Connection "

sabinoffargo:
I'm sorry if this is a repost, i tried looking really hard for this but couldn't find this anywhere.  I just installed Rockbox and went through and got everything setup, man this is sweet stuff.  My one problem is i go into the system settings and i get to my batter and all i see is the "capacity" option.  I have a 30GB, 5G iPod.  this is the link i used http://download.rockbox.org/release/3.1/rockbox-ipodvideo-3.1.zip.  If anyone could help me in the path to greatness (or at least this part working) i would really appreciate it.  Thanks

Kenny

That option is not available on your device.  It used to be present on all devices, but it did nothing on most devices.

There may be a problem with USB charging on iPods.  For more info see: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/8802

Hmm, ok, for what it matter it is plugged into my PC, and when the old iPod firmware I could go into my computer and right click and eject and listen to it, but now with Rockbox

I'm doing this with my iPod 4G and it doesn't seem to work.  Whilst the iPod is on and Rockbox is loaded I hold "Menu" and plug in the the USB.  The USB icon appears beside the battery icon on the display but I don't believe it is charging because a) the battery icon isn't animated and b) the indicator is going down as I listen to music.
