tag cache not working

[briguy04]

Hello, I have an ihp-140.  Whenever I try and force the tag update, it never actually completes it.  I can tell the player has been working (red light flashes) and after longer than 45 min, it still hasn't completed (this will be the 3rd time using different daily builds).  I tried deleting the tag cache files first from the player and that hasn't worked.  thank you!

Check your Filesystem, I had the same problem, tag cache update would go on forever...hours....
On linux i did a (change /dev/sdb1 to your device location)

Code: [Select]

# fsck.vfat -a /dev/sdb1
dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
/Gillian Welch
 Start does point to root directory. Deleting dir.
/Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
 Start does point to root directory. Deleting dir.
/Yann Tiersen
 Start does point to root directory. Deleting dir.

and from then on tag cache took a few minutes on about 1500 songs. Funny egnoth i had to run fs-check twice to correct all errors.

Edit: Proper code formatting.

I'm sorry I've never used Linux before, but what exactly did you do? Did you relocate your music folder?
