Glitchy audio after resume playback (split from: New USB mode questions)
Llorean:
You've been told this before. "u" is not a word, you need to type out "you" in our forums. We ask that you use proper English spellings at the very least.
You probably want to start earlier than the first build that supports USB, as it may be from changes somewhat before that. As well, the builds available for download are only once a day. At some point you're going to need to compile builds to get more precise, so you may as well learn how now so that you can pick any build revision you want.

Yes your right, sorry about that 'u' instead of 'You' as i got into a habit of doing that sorta stuff as it speeds up typing a little. (i edited the post and corrected it ;) )
but anyways....
i guess i could start before USB was implemented but if i recall correctly the 'USB Test Build' (just before it was officially in the 'current builds') worked fine, but to be honest i dont know if i used that enough to know with reasonable certainty if the issue was there or not.... but then again when i did notice that recently (in the last few days or so) i was on a small trip of probably no more than 15minutes 1-way (maybe 30-40minutes round trip) and it acted up once on the way there and once on the way back. and like someone else said i think at least one of those times i had it on pause for roughly a minute or two and when i resumed from pause it started the issue i been explaining.
but if possible... what was the build that USB was first enabled on 'officially' in the current builds section? ... main reason i ask is because i would rather not go prior to that unless i have to due to using the new bootloader. that's why i figured that build is a good place to start to give me a good idea on which direction to go, be it prior to USB support or builds after it.
also, if you dont mind any advice on where i should start as far as compiling my own builds? (as i typed this message i did not search at all yet so i guess i could get started ... i just figure with a little push in the right direction that would help speed things along a little bit ;) )
EDIT: i assume this ( http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/SimpleGuideToCompiling ) is a good place to start?
EDIT#2: i think i got that Cygwin thing installed... any advice on how to build exact versions? (because i assumed you needed me to test r20100/r20101/r20102 and so on until i think i located the build where the sound glitch dont exist)

Give me a hint. What version do you want me to start with? Go back 1 month? or 2 months? Maybe 1 week?
Please, anyone with the problem, please post your version!! We don't need to be testing the same version or a version after the bug.
Chronon:
Binary search:
1) Pick an initial build that's long enough ago to not have this bug.
2) Verify that it doesn't exhibit the bug
3) Make a build that's halfway between that build and the current build.
4a) If it contains the bug then make a build halfway between that build and the initial one.
4b) If it doesn't contain the bug then make a build halfway between that build and the current one.
5) Repeat the process until you find the build where the bug begins.
To give you an idea of how much time this may take, for a set of 1024 revisions this will give the result in 10 steps.
Unfortunately, my e280 is currently AWOL so I cannot help test for the time being.

thanks Chronon for the advice but the question i have is...
what's the first build that supports USB AND how do i build exact build versions with that Cygwin? , because as far as i can tell in the stuff i read it dont really mention this. i would seriously like to help but as of now i cant really help since i dont really know how to build specific versions etc.
