DATA ABORT

<< < (3/11) > >>

MOREloss:
all always play the files on the computer from the ipod. i have for a long time now. all the same files and i have never ever had any issues. ive read many of the post when i search the forums and alot seem to be the same problems im having. many look like this "data abort at 'insert number here.'"

Llorean:
"Data Abort at ADDRESS" does not mean it's the same problem. There are thousands of things that can go wrong and cause data aborts.

It's like turning on your TV and seeing static. Is the TV broken? Is the cable out? Is the cable box broken? Etc, etc.

It's an error message that helps track down the problem. And that number tells us more specifically where the problem is. So please, don't assume their problem is the same as yours.

You've still basically avoided answering questions or trying it with an updated version. You could also perform a scandisk on your player.

If you're going to just sit there and say "It's Rockbox's fault" and not participate at all in us trying to actually find out what's wrong, there's no possible way we can help you or solve the problem.

   Okay, to make sure I'm following your post right. You only use your Rockbox-iPod when it's connected to the PC?
   And you have Rockbox playing the files on your PC, and not the ones on your iPod?

    If I understand Rockbox right, this is not possible. The files have to be copied to the HDD in the iPod for Rockbox to see & play them.

    My suggestion goes like this:
Connect iPod to computer. It'll show up as a drive letter, e.g. E:\
Open My Computer (or explorer, your choice) and navigate to the folder _on the iPod_ that contains the problem songs. (E:\music or whatever)
Play _that_ song file in Windows Media Player, or whatever other media player you have on your computer.

Then why are you trying to tell people who are what to do?

     Now let's be gentlemen about this. :) We're trying to find an answer to MOREloss's problem. Hopefully he is now trying our suggestions, and will post back the results. Then we can take it from there.
