Discussion of now-committed ipod startup workaround
Falco98:
I think this patch (due to the nature of how it shuts down the ipod) may be what's causing weird startup issues when plugged into a car connector. Previously I was able to just plug it in to the car connector in its "off" state and it would start up and start playing; now, however, the ipod does start up fine but the car display *always* halts at "ipod connection problem" and refuses to do anything until I reseat the cable with the ipod already on. I'll imagine this is a real specific corner-case type situation, but I'm wondering if it will have implications on other similar functions.
My equipment: ipod 80gb 5.5g
car: 2006 scion with ipod connector dock

Can you build Rockbox? You can easily discover if this is the problem by comparing a build of SVN r24206 and r24207, which were the versions immediately before/after this change. I don't have any accessories to test this with.

vocrobot, the change was committed several weeks ago; there is no need to comment on whether you have the problem.

Good point - I'll try if I get a chance. I only just re-setup my system to make builds a few weeks ago so I could write a patch (for the first time in a few years).

Hey everyone, I got a replacement 1G 4Gb nano recently, and I cannot start up Rockbox without resetting it with MENU+SELECT each and every time. I've tried turning it on about 10 tens, and I can't get it to wake up normally hitting Menu or Select. I have to reset it every time. I can indeed see what looks like the "low battery" indicator flashing. My battery was at least 50% charged each time I tried.
I'm running v3.5.1 build 25219, just downloaded this morning.
