And now it's the Sleep Timer...
« on: January 28, 2025, 06:02:15 PM »
I've noticed that the Sleep Timer doesn't seem to power down my iPod unless the iPod is in either Play or Pause mode - in Stop mode the timer expires and the iPod remains powered on.  (This is while running on battery, not plugged in, of course.)  And here's the funky part:  When the timer expires in Stop mode and the iPod remains powered on, if you then start a track playing, THEN the iPod immediately shuts itself down.

This is with an ipod6g running dev build c5103bab95-250127 and an ipodvideo running dev build 8aa54286c4-250125.  Both are flash modded with 256GB.

Honestly, I'm not working overtime looking for obscure bugs, but I guess I tend to do stuff in dark corners on the fringes where other users don't go.  In this case I was doing some digging, looking for specific conditions that result in the "white flash at shutdown" that I started experiencing with either dev build f42343b715 or 734cc3e8d1 [https://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,55159.msg255067.html#msg255067].  But this Sleep Timer thing goes back at least as far as dev build 50515de940-241222 which I also tested today from a backup I have of that build, so it seems unlikely that the Sleep Timer and white flash are related (though what do I know?).

Same issue on an ipod6g with a standard 160GB HDD running dev build 8aa54286c4-250125.

As far as I can tell this is long-standing behavior for some reason, not sure if intentionally or not. Would be easy to fix though.
