Glitchy audio after resume playback (split from: New USB mode questions)
ThaCrip:
just a side note... there is new bootloaders for your Sansa e250 (i have same player) so it never boot original firmware unless you specifically tell it to when the power is off by holding the left button on the d-pad when powering it on ;)
p.s. to anyone... earlier i was using my e250 and for the first time ever while playing (i might have been pausing it here and there and when i resumed etc) the sound basically got all static etc etc so i had to stop it and resume to get it back to normal again.... happened twice earlier... prior to this i never had it happen so it might be some glitches in recent-ish builds?.
EDIT: ... i just noticed when i power it on, on the main Rockbox screen just before it fully loads it changed between 2 different versions on the screen (for the build and date etc) ... i might do a clean install of a recent build and see if it acts up in the near future.

I noticed the same here on my e280... more than twice, I got the weird static and had to shuffle/jog the mp3 file to clear the static...(I just thought it was a crappy mp3 recording?) .... i have r20185 loaded.

I've noticed both of those things myself. On my e280, MP3 playback turns to crackly static sometimes (but not always -- so reproducibility is elusive) after resuming playback from a lengthy paused state. Typically, simply re-pausing then un-pausing has returned playback to normal.
The two Rockbox boot screens, as I see it, show 1) the test bootloader version number, and 2) the Rockbox build number. The latter has always happened; the former is new to the new bootloader.
ThaCrip:
as said above... yes, i had the static issue from 'a long pause state' to is when i think it mainly happened if i recall correctly.
as said here, "The two Rockbox boot screens, as I see it, show 1) the test bootloader version number, and 2) the Rockbox build number. The latter has always happened; the former is new to the new bootloader."
so apparently (as said above) the new bootloader causes it to show 2 different dates/build numbers?.
as for the... "(I just thought it was a crappy mp3 recording?)" ... im pretty sure that's NOT the issue because i never had this issue up until recently, v3.1 works perfect and never done anything like this... heck, Rockbox has been pretty much flawless for me up until this recent static glitch.
Llorean:
The bootloader shows its own version number, not the Rockbox build number. It always has. since it's built from Rockbox sources, unless we've changed the string (as we do for release bootloaders usually) it will have a version number that looks like a Rockbox version number.
So yes, you should always expect to see a different version number in the bootloader than after the bootloader.
