Xduoo x3

I'm sure Vortex is arranging this via Bitbucket. :-)

I really appreciate the hard work on the port but forcing me to create account on bitbucket just to see the sources is impolite really.

at the moment the repo there is private but you can request access and the man page indicates XVertex will make it public soon enough

@XVertex, can we please have a build incorporating the SD card changes here (although i'm not sure they're applicable to x3)

http://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=shortlog (I'm not sure about the specific commits but Michael indicated these can help random track skipping mid song that I experience on X3 and clip+)

ps amazing work indeed.

Hi,
I am sorry to insist but this is really quite impolite: you are using our source code, our logo, you are even accepting donations for yourself and distributing binaries, the least you could do is to make the source publicly available for download without having to request access or to create account on another website.

[Kokos]

Give him some time, as said we are pretty sure it's being arranged, so please calm down a wait a little.

This is really cool. Very appreciative, there's always a but though...

Anyone else getting a lot of hiss/white noise on high res flac files? Tried adjusting the oversampling but no change, all other formats seem great.

xDuoo X3 Rockbox source code has been released on Github.
I'll be glad if you join to improve the project.

xDuoo X3 Rockbox source code has been released on Github.

Code quality looks excellent, but someone familiar with the JZ should review.

Also, the copyright notices should be your real/legal name, not your screen name.

Thanks. Nevertheless port still has some USB-stack issues and unfinished NAND ops.
Everything else works. A successful public launch this confirms.

Hello,

Is it stable? Will it support Rockbox Utility? I currently have a Sansa Clip+ which I'd like to replace with something better with Rockbox, thinking about the Xduoo X3. If everything works as it should, I'll get it.

Hi,
first off all, a big "thank you" for the port!

I installed the most recent version (7658c23-160321) and it worked very well for the most part. Some minor issues tough:
- There is about a 3 second delay between selecting a file and playback starting
- When using a 128 GB micro SD formatted to FAT32 things go a little bit off the hook:
I put about 80GB of music and the system folder on the card. The system boots and does not seem to misbehave. When trying to build the library, the system first panicked ("Stkov dircache"), on the second attempt a library was built but it contained only a single Artist. After a few attempts it successfully built the library, even tough navigation was rather sluggish (~2sec delay for selecting an entry)
Trying to play songs either from the folder-view or the library instantly skips about 90% of selected songs, only a few are playable.
This behaviour does not seem to change when the system is booted from a 32GB card in the first slot and the 128 GB card is inserted into the second.

Is the issue with 128 GB cards expected for this built? Any more information I could provide to help diagnose this further?

Edit April 03, 2016, 07:41:58: Just tried the same SD-card on a Sansa Clip Zip running Rockbox 3.13 and varying the partiton size. No change in the behaviour of Rockbox on xduoo, the clip zip has no issues tough. Also the stock firmware of the xduoo can read/play the files

Edit April 05: Regarding the issue with non-playable songs: I was jumping to conclusions regarding the memory card being at fault, this only happens (reliably) for ogg-files, no matter the medium. Mostly it will just skip them but for a particular speex-encoded file it panics with LTB refill handler at 0x83E045F4 [0x0]. mp3, aac, opus and wma work fine.

Please forgive my lack of understanding, but what happens now with XVortex's ROCKbox port - how does it become "officially" adopted by ROCKbox?

[staeff]

It looks good. Already. This was definitely worth a donation.

I noticed the start-play-delay , but I think that's hard too overlook.

Does the X3 hardware support USB Connections, or can it just charge? (Transfer also didn't work with the original firmware)

[Kokos]

Hi guys,

I'm not hurrying anyone, I'd just like to know how much work left.. Do you know how much time it can take until this port will be released for typical users and it will have stable status on wiki page?

Thank you!

You are right, just switched to RB. It's works very well and in case of problem we can boot to original soft any time. I hope RSS will be available for soft updates so I could be notified. Definitely will donate after using some time.
