Hello folks,

I just purchased an Xduoo X3 and have successfully installed rockbox on the player as I really like this firmware on my old Sansa Clip+.

However there is a strange behaviour when moving down through the menus using the > arrow. The menus get automatically selected like I have pressed the play / select button. It happens fairly often so I have taken to just using the < arrrow to move upwards through the menus as it doesn't happen when I do that.

I booted into the stock firmware and this doesn't appear to happen in the stock firmware. Perhaps this is just a coincidence though and the cause is a problem with a dodgy play button that is too sensitive and is essentially getting randomly triggered for some reason when I use the > button.

Perhaps I got a defective unit?

Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreicated!

Cheers in advance.

This also happens to me occasionally. It's hard to determine what brings it about and for a while I thought the new version of the firmware solved the problem.
It'd probably be better to post this on the headfi page as the maintainer of the firmware seems to read it https://www.head-fi.org/threads/rockbox-xduoo-x3.803844/page-123
Thanks

I don't know if anyone cares or not, but I just rebased the seemingly-abandoned xvortex rockbox tree against master, cleaned up the commits a little bit, and ported the X3's sdcard driver to the new thread-free sdcard API.

This tree encompasses xvortex's unofficial ports for the xDuoo X3 (mipsel jz4760), as well as the Xuelin iHIFI 770, 770C, and 800 (arm rk27xx).  I don't have any of the hardware, so I have no way of actually testing this beyond basic compilation.  Anyone out there have one or more of these devices, and willing to be a guinea pig?

(It would be nice to get this merged into master; no sense in letting it bitrot and it's always nice to have targets that are still commercially relevant...)

I don't think the author has given a real name to attribute his or her code to, and as such, we can't merge it yet.

Should ask him for his name and add him to the credits.

Email sent.  I guess we'll see if anything comes back..

Assuming that "vortex" supplies an attributable name, what's next?   Push the commits to gerrit for review?  (I'm assuming they'll need some further work, and I'm willing to do it..)

I now have the author's real name, and his blessing to get this stuff mainlined.

How should I proceed?

Push to gerrit for review. However without device to test I don't think it is worth the hassle.

For some time, I've wanted to meaningfully contribute something back to rockbox, and this seemed like a relatively simple way to get familiar with rockbox's codebase -- and one that will yield both immediately useful results and provide a stepping stone to other ports.

I'm no stranger to working with bare-metal embedded code, low-level OS tinkering, and writing device drivers after reverse-engineering efforts, so this sort of stuff is right up my alley.

I have a few more things to clean up and then I'll push the commits to gerrit so they can be bled on.

The patches are now in gerrit:

http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/1854
http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/1855

Should I add anyone specifically to do reviews?

If I understand correctly, these are updates to the 170609? If so, I'd be interested in testing it out. Please let me know what i need to do.
Thank you,

Those are patches that merge the source code into the rockbox tree.  No idea if this is even safe to try on a real device, but here is a binary for the x3:

Looks like the X3 has been succeeded:

2.4" color screen, different DACs, bluetooth, and somewhat saner button layout.

(...I have a strong suspicion that this is another hibi_player-on-Linux device..)
