apple style sleep mode
woyciesjes:
If I'm reading this right, the behaviour you're experiencing is normal and not a bug, I think...
Your car stereo has it's own mp3 player, and it's just using your iPod as a removable disk, right? So, it should behave the same as when you plug the iPod in to a computer to sync, right?
Or am I missing something?
Spoonman:
thats correct, but when i use the apple firmware resume works, and when i´m in rockbox it does not. so i assume that since the apple firmware does not totally power off the device and rockbox does this might be the cause of this behavior.
woyciesjes:
Well, seem as if yours is operating opposite of mine, (iPod video 30GB 5.5G).
I'm running v 20102-090225 of Rockbox. I just tested... while playing a song in Rockbox, I connect it to my Mac PC, it kicks in to drive mode. Disconnected, Rockbox restarts, and I choose Resume Playback. Voila, the track I was listening to before I connected.
But the iPod firmware doesn't do that. Would be nice if it did, though....
Spoonman:
seems like you got me wrong again, this is not really a pure rockbox issue, if i talk about resume i mean resume on my car stereos internal mp3 player. the only thing wrong is that rockbox powers off the ipod completely after a given time, where the ipod firmware goes to sleep mode.
when rockbox is active:
when turning on the car stereo the ipod starts into rockbox from cold state and resets the car stereo when it initalizes.
when apple os is active:
when the car stereo is turned on ipod awakes from sleep mode and the car stereo continues playback from where it ended when i left the car.
Chronon:
Does your car stereo have a separate mode for iPods?
