Over 32k songs on playlist?
« on: May 06, 2012, 10:21:54 AM »
I have actually 35k tracks in my iPod 5.5 with 240gb rockboxed. I see I can reach the 32k limit for playlist.

So, if I would like to have all my tracks, can I go over this limit? Or is it impossible?

Thanks

You'll need to modify the source code to allow for more files, that limit is prety arbitrary (it is a tradeoff between how many files you usually want in a playlist and how much memroy you want to waste on it.

You can (I tihnk) create a .m3u on your computer with all the files (or even in rockbox) and it will happily play that even if it is more than 32k files.

Using PMs to annoy devs about bugs/patches is not a good way to have the issue looked at.

When I generate the playlist, it adds ALL tracks into the .m3u (35k+ tracks).

The problem is when I load it to the memory. That's the limit. Where can I edit it in the "source code"? Is there a tutorial somewhere?

Thanks

I don't know if this will work, but you could try hand-editing .rockbox/config.cfg and increasing the number there.
