apple style sleep mode

(1/4) > >>

Spoonman:
ok, now we have the new usb stack up and working well, so maybe its time to implement something like the apple style sleep mode,  i mean the apple firmware does never fully power off the player unless the battery is empty or you reset the player, so the device does not have to boot every time. so when i plug my nano to the usb port of my car stereo in apple mode it remembers the position where it was with playback, when i am in rockbox every time the player shuts down the car stereo starts playback from track 1...

linuxstb:
How are you restarting playback in Rockbox? 

When you shut down Rockbox, it should remember the current playlist and your position in that playlist, and on next boot you can resume playback from where you left off.

The only thing a sleep mode could give you is a faster resume - the resume feature already exists.

Spoonman:
sorry, but it seems you missunderstood me wrong ;-)
rockbox itself works great, but i (and maybe some other people too) use my ipod nano also as usb disc in my car (my car stereo has a usb connector) and there the problem comes up, when rockbox is powered when the car stereo is turned on it is newly initialized and playback starts with track 1 on the disc. when the player is in ipod mode it does not really power off and so the car stereo resumes playback.

Llorean:
Yes, we got that. And he said that's not what's supposed to happen, it's supposed to remember where you are and resume where you left off, rather than at track 1. What revision of Rockbox are you using?

Spoonman:
i used r20192-090303, but did a update today wich i did not test yet.
