Sansa c200 v2: Database will not build

<< < (2/2)

AlexP:
There is a known bug where the database building will fail if there are no audio files at all on the device.  It always counts all files on the device, database.ignore just tells it to ignore them.

What happens if you delete *.tcd from the /.rockbox directory, copy a few audio files over (making sure to use MSC USB mode) and then try to initialise the database?

Jalowan:
Thanks for the suggestions; I am still having a problem though.  I did not find any files with a .tcd extension in the /.rockbox directory.  I loaded a few songs on, and still had the same problems.  Of course with this unit I had to do a manual installation, and it was not perfectly smooth but not difficult either.  I will try to reload the bin and see what happens.  

As a potentially related issue, I am unable to load the OF; it hangs on the logo screen.  I've tried the method noted at the bottom of this (http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/SansaAMS) page, but it never gets past the logo.  Again, thanks for any suggestions.

NEVERMIND - I am a bonehead! There was an instance of database.ignore in the root directory.  This was giving me all my trouble.  Not sure how it got there, but it's gone now.  Database successfully initialized on the couple of files I had in there.
