Sansa Fuze+

[sportscrazed2]

Haven't had any crashes with the current built.  Everything seems to be working great.  Thanks for turning my unusable mp3 player with OF to something awesome with rockbox

85a6715 seems to work, as does 06aa7e8, although I haven't tested them thoroughly, yet. I do seem to still be having one issue where my PC seems very slow to detect the device for browsing, but that might be a problem with my own computer. I'll experiment more tomorrow.

I've noticed that USB transfers became very slow with the current build (latest sources from git repo).
~120-150KB/s write, ~1.5MB/s read, both internal and microSD (32GB class 10 card).
In OF, speeds are fine.

Thanks for reporting, I just fixed that in the last commit. I got an improvement from ~1MB/s to 12MB/s on read which is much closer to what you can expect.
I hope to be able to implement recording before the feature freeze which is a few days ahead now. Any other really wanted feature to suggest before freeze ?

Does this mean the fuze+ will be upgraded to stable with the newest release?   I had a crash the other day so have moved back to my original fuze for the time being.  can't be having crashed during a 2 hour podcast.

Hmm... all the device doesn't seem to take so long to become "browseable" on the other machine I just tested it on (same RB build). I guess it really is a problem with my own computer. Just though you should know.

PS:

Any other really wanted feature to suggest before freeze?

I have one. I would love to be able to lock the player, regardless of which screen I'm on. At the very least, I would love to lock the main screen, and I'm sure others would love to lock the radio screen. Of course, whatever you do, you're definitely my hero for all you've done.

This is great, I have finally moved from using Rockbox on my old iPod Video to my new Fuze+.

What's the best way to report bugs? There are a couple of things I've noticed, but overall it works really well, thank you!

[pamaury]

Report bug on flyspray (see bugs link on the left menu of the website). I'm not sure a global lock is feasible without much work with our current code. The WPS lock key is really special to the WPS but I'll see what I can do. I agree the radio screen needs a lock key too.

[gontofe]

That's great, thanks for that.

Is there a way to make the backlight turn off as soon as the screen is locked?

[sportscrazed2]

Updated to latest build about 5 minutes ago and it immediately told me to charge it.  so i set it up to charge and it rebooted itself about 3 times and now seems to have settled down.   also when i unplugged it from the power source the screen went all grey and it locked up forcing a power down.  has anyone experienced something like this?

Hi pamaury, can you work on fixing cpu scaling?  I like videogame music and VGM playback was very laggy last time i tried and spc playback needs a bit more cpu power too.

[buckminster]

Still having this issue as far as I can tell. Not sure what else I can do to ask for help on this. Any debug information I could submit? Not the end of the world, but really annoying.

Excellent news!
Maybe cpu scaling is my most desired feature; if this can reduce battery consumption.
Thanks.

hi all. I've been away for a while and 'm just passing through... I've closed:

For I cannot reproduce then anymore. Let us know if you are still experiencing them (especially the first one that always has randomly occurred.)

[gontofe]

Agree with buckminster about http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/12594.

Pamaury, do you have your own git repository?
