Sansa e200 plugins not available in menu
« on: July 08, 2009, 02:36:16 PM »
I'm not sure what's wrong. The files are all there (I'm assuming that the plugins should be located in the "rocks" directory). But whenever I try going into the plugins menu, I get a box saying "No files." I'm not exactly sure when the problem started, as I do not use any of the plugins very often, but they did work at one point. I'm really not sure what I should do. Any and all help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Perhaps try to update your Rockbox build, rather than the bootloader, though.

Reinstall rockbox.

I have, several times. I've tried using both the current stable release, and I've tried the current build. Should I try an older version?
Or do you mean to reinstall the bootloader? Would that affect anything?

I installed it automatically using RockboxUtility
Like I said, I've used the plugins before (probably a good four or five months ago, though). I've only recently noticed the problem, so I'm not sure if it could be from a faulty installation... But I guess if I knew what I was talking about, I wouldn't have had to ask.  :-[

Hrm...

The plugins should be laid out like

/.rockbox/rocks/apps/foo.rock
/.rockbox/rocks/demos/bar.rock
/.rockbox/rocks/games/baz.rock
/.rockbox/rocks/viewers/qux.rock

See if a filesystem check (chkdsk on Windows, or fsck.vfat on Linux) turns up any errors.

I finally found out what was wrong. Turns out, when I plugged in my player, it was being mounted incorrectly. Whenever I added files, they would show up in the folder but would not be read by the player, so when I updated Rockbox and replaced the plugin files, they were no longer able to be read. I fixed it so it mounted the way it should, updated again, and now I can use the plugins again.  ;D

Thanks for all the help!  :D
