bug: Rockbox (randomly) freezes during playback

[MoD]

I tried it with your settings as well and it still worked for me (no freeze). This is really strange.

Maybe it has something to do with my version. I'll try to update to the latest CVS and test it again, when I have the time, but at the moment I have to care about some exams.

Good luck

Why don't you all try it with default settings? That way you can be sure you are all using the same settings. If the bug doesn't appear, change one setting at a time until you find the culprit.

I did more testing.

I cleared my settings at boot to have default settings. I only enabled auto change directory and disabled repeat (don't know why it is enabled in default). The Bug wasn't there.

Next I enabled directory cache, rebooted and now I get the bug!

Settings different from default:

Code: [Select]

auto change directory: on
repeat: off
dircache: on

This is the interesting part of the logfdump (read it from bottom up)
the complete log is in the attachment.

I get a very similar bug when playing Jewels and listening to music at the same time.  To reproduce:

--Play music.
--Play Jewels.
--Exit Jewels and continue listening to music.

Music will play normally at first, but eventually I will get a codec failure or codec not found error.  I don't know if this is a related bug, but I'll try to do some testing to figure out exactly what triggers the failure (change directories, etc.)

After returning from holidays I checked existence of this bug in the latest firmware. It is still there so I filled a bug report.

Could anyone send me a logf enabled build for H120 so I can check it more thoroughly? I am to lazy to install the build environment

Today I received a brandnew iPod photo and installed rockbox on it with the 31/08 build. It frooze a few times within minutes while playing MP3's.
The settings where unchanged... so very default

Then I took a build that is 10 days older and this one is stable
It played for hours without any trouble
