Trying to play tracks crashes with current dev build on iPod mini 2nd Gen

<< < (2/4) > >>

iPodVT:
Thanks a lot for your reply - I really appreciate it.

Earlier this morning, when I saw that the new 1ea5d57303 dev build had been posted and was reported to have fixed a crashing bug, I used Rockbox Utility to update from 95f4accf45 on my mini 2G with all of my configs etc.  It froze when I tried to play a track, so I reverted back to 95f4accf45 and I just now finished playing the entire album that includes that track.  But I should have tried a clean install of 1ea5d57303.  I have to go out now for a bit but I will try a clean install when I return, as well as anything else you suggest/request.  Meanwhile, there's no urgency on my part for this fix.

Again, thanks.

iPodVT:
Now I have tried a clean install of 1ea5d57303 on the same iPod mini 2nd Gen and it froze again when I tried to play a track.  Then I tried a clean install of 1ea5d57303 on a different iPod mini 2nd Gen with a 4GB SanDisk CF Card and it also froze when I tried to play a track.  Both iPods had plenty of free/available disk space.

Please let me know if there is anything else you would like me to try.

Thanks.

It's a selection of Opus, WMA, AAC, FLAC, and MP3 that I use for basic smoke tests.

Does your mini2g have an HDD for storage?  If not, what flavor of flash?

I tried a mini2g with a mechanical HDD (albeit a 5GB HDD from a scavenged/canabilized Dell Pocket DJ) and had the same results as with the others:  runs fine on older dev build but freezes with 1ea5d57303 when trying to play or navigate the File Browser.

That was with a clean install of 1ea5d57303.

Bilgus:
There are several builds between those can you try the two others here?

I also included the one you referenced as good and head incase speachy fixed it already
