Rockbox Development > New Ports
Sony NWZ-E370
pamaury:
Hi, great thanks for the report ! Let me try to answer your points:
1) I *think* it depends on the theme (I only develop the low-level stuff so I'm not 100% sure), and I *think* we have other themes for this resolution, you should have a look on our theme website, just pick a player with the same resolution (select search by lcd size and enter "128x160"). It is also possible that it is a bug of the theme engine.
2) I think your suggestion is okay, we could have both buttons power the player, to be honest I don't even remember why we selected play. That will require a bootloader change though but I'll add this to my TODO list.
3) yeah the pad is just not great for games
4) Ok, then I have no idea what to do, if the battery life is not impacted I'd say just ignore it.
About battery reports, I'll try to have a look at it, the battery meter is really calibrated for the NWZ-E370 and calibration is probably not the same on the NWZ-E380 which may explain the problem. If you have the time to do it, you could help by doing a battery benchmark: start with full battery, select repeat all, start a long playlist (at least 30 files), and start the battery_bench plugin. Let your player alone until battery is drained, and send me the battery bench log (it should be at the root of device I think).
Thanks again for your comments :)

Thanks for the reply!
I did manage to put a numeric display for battery and volume into my theme, so that problem's fixed and I appreciate that clue. ;)
And finally (took a bit of time), I did the battery bench test for you! (Also for me, since it's my player after all, heh.) I'm attaching it and, assuming I'm understanding any of this correctly, it did last over 26 hours. ^-^

Thanks for the report :) I have another question: does the battery percent "swing" only in the bootloader screen or also in Rockbox ? I kind of expect this behaviour in the bootloader because at the moment the "raw" voltage is displayed, whereas in Rockbox it is smoothed, thus removing the most abberant values.
JosieQ:
It seems to be only on the bootloader screen, you're right. The only thing it does weird-ish with the battery while IN Rockbox is that the graphical battery value shows a tiny bit missing even when it's 100% and never displays full graphical. (It does however show full in the while-playing screen.)
Oh, I did have a weird glitch while playing music yesterday. I went into a different folder from the one I was in and started clicking around on different mp3 files trying to find a song... and the music stopped playing and behaved as if it was paused. The icon still showed a "play" status and I could switch between "play" and "pause" with the button but it was just sitting there, not playing or advancing the time, as if paused. I tried a bunch of songs with no luck, and then I restarted and that fixed it.
Cuuuuuurious. ???

Hey,
I'm using the rockbox firmware since about half a year on my nwz e384. It's great, but I'm having a few issues:
1)
I'm having that key-Issue which was already mentioned somewhere. Somekeys(!) sometimes(! actually pretty often at the moment) don't work.
Especially the Back/Home- and the Play-Keys often don't work. Sometimes also the forward and back keys don't work, but they work most of the time. The up and down keys always work!
Addionally sometimes a key is triggered multiple times in a row, i.e. press forward to select an entry and it selects x entries in a row until it reached a leaf of the file-tree.
If a key is not working, a reboot has no effect. I can't reproduce it or see anything that influences the behaviour.
All the keys work perfect all the time in the original fw.
Since this seems not to be a "regular" (i.e. logical bug) I was wondering whether it might be some kind of a low level threshold issue. Is there some threshold that determines whether a button was pressed or not? Is it possible, that the voltage might be a little different depending on battery voltage, temperature, humidity? This could also explain the multiple trigger issue (button is pressed but the noisy voltage triggers key-released multiple times in a row).
Any ideas? I had the issue with a fw version from approx 6 month ago and updated my fw two days ago with no effect.
2)
The playback stops even though the play indicator says playing bug -- see JosieQs post -- also occurs sometimes. Not often and not really annoying, a reboot fixes the issue.
Thanks a lot for your work!
