TinyOgg-encoded Vorbis and Rockbox? [iPod Nano 2nd generation]
« on: April 04, 2011, 02:20:25 AM »
As the title gives away, my problem entails something between an iPod Nano (2nd generation) with Rockbox, and TinyOgg.

A brief for those who don't know - TinyOgg is a handy website where you can view (and download) YouTube videos converted into Vorbis or Theora (you can choose to strip video from the result, meaning audio-only, and thus Vorbis).

I am using a Rockbox build which is about a week old, so I doubt this is a version problem, but well...anyway, anything I try to put onto my iPod to play just won't work. A sample is available at http://tinyogg.com/watch/wmKRl/ (but will only last 48 hours per TinyOgg policies - if not availale, pick your favorite and go to tinyogg.com/add and choose "Audio only". It so happens that the sample I provide is self-made, and licensed freely so you can download without worries).

A rough description of the problem: I load one or more of these TinyOgg-spawned Vorbis files onto my iPod, and play any one of them. I get a brief flash of the "now playing" screen, which shows the name of the last song in the directory, then "(root)" for a split-second before I'm dumped back at the file browser. My guess is that it just zooms through all the Vorbis files in the directory (hence I get a glimpse of the last before it defaults back to the browser), finds them unplayable, and takes me back to the file browser.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

The file contains multiple streams, and Rockbox doesn't support that at the moment.
