Ipod nano 1g stops and starts playback
caiogjj:
I am having an issue with music on my rockboxed ipod 4gb nano 1g.
I installed rockbox yesterday, and I can't get it to work properly.
I can do all the configuration normally, but when I play a file, all the buttons stop working (except the Hold and the hard reset), and the music plays for about 3 seconds and "pauses", then after about 3 seconds it starts again from where it stopped, then stops again, and it goes like this the whole time until I hard reset it.
I am playing m4a (HE-AAC) files, already tried uninstalling and reinstalling rockbox.
Thanks for your help
edit: I just tested an MP3 file, and it plays normally. The .m4a files are still with problems...

Your ipod is too slow to play AAC-HE files.

That's bad.... Do you know another format that is smaller than a 192 kbps mp3 with the same quality that can be used in my ipod?
Thanks

AAC-HE is generally used for low quality, low bitrate files. If you just want something for high quality audio, AAC, MP3, Vorbis, MPC, WMA, or WMA Pro will all work.

Thanks for the quick replies.
I just tried converting a song to Windows Media Audio Professional (64 kbps) with winamp, and the device still won't play it. When I select the file to play, it quickly flashes tha WPS screen an returns to the previous screen I was at. I thought it would work, since it says in the manual that the format is supported: http://download.rockbox.org/daily/manual/rockbox-ipodnano1g/rockbox-buildap1.html#x16-355000A
Is this a bug, or my ipod really can't play this format?
Thanks, sorry for the inconvenience
