Ipod Classic: no A-B Repeat in the menu [SOLVED]
« on: April 09, 2013, 12:18:54 PM »
Hello,
I'm glad i could install Rockbox on my IPod Classic 7G but my favourite feature, the A-B Repeat does not appear in the Playback/Repeat menu. There is only listed: Off/All/One/Shuffle.

Is there any way I can get the A-B function working? Please help me!


Rockbox Version: I first used the rockbox-ipod6g.zip as linked on the IpodClassicPort page. Then I built rockbox myself but the problem remained (Version: dcba741-130407)

AB repeat is disabled in the config file:

http://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=blob;f=firmware/export/config/ipod6g.h;h=11d77c2017d58864c538cc1e541e8835156b3430;hb=HEAD#l102

because there are no keys defined to use it in the keymap:

http://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=blob;f=apps/keymaps/keymap-ipod.c;h=a438926dd9015890bccb87f6e79a178841abdab7;hb=HEAD

You could add a key mapping, then enable them and finally compile a new build with it.  See for example the e200 which defines them like so:
http://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=blob;f=apps/keymaps/keymap-e200.c;h=538cd7cb8ae085d1ea26364b1c2cfe4a59e56628;hb=HEAD#l68

Not sure if the ipod actually has enough buttons for that though.  You might have to give up some other feature on the WPS screen to fit it.

Thanks a lot for the quick answer!
I activated the following two lines in the config file:
Quote
102 #define AB_REPEAT_ENABLE
 103 #define ACTION_WPSAB_SINGLE ACTION_WPS_BROWSE

Now the A-B Repeat works properly - you use it with the center-button, which brings you usually to the file browser.

Thanks again!
