TagCashe Question

(1/2) > >>

LanceUppercut:
So,  I've been using Rockbox for about 2 weeks now, and I love it for the most part!  but, For some reason, the last 2 days or so, I've had TagCashe problems.  It seems like sometimes it'll just stop working, saying TagCashe not ready. 

If I try to update, it freezes, saying Runtime Error and a bunch of numbers.  So, I formated , and reinstalled, and it worked a few times, then the same thing. 

When I look in the .rockbox folder, there is a bunch of random files, named a bunch of ascii symbols, that can't be deleted.  Chkdsk does nothing.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

Llorean:
I will tell you right now that I am 100% sure it has never once said to you "TagCashe not ready"

Anyway, a couple questions. The first being: What build were you running when this happened?

The second being: By "Chkdisk does nothing" what exactly do you mean? It scans and comes up with no errors, or it fails to scan?

LanceUppercut:
I'm using CVS-060805

Chkdsk finds a bunch of errors, converts them to files, and I still can't delete the garbled data.  Usually, the files I can't delete are about 2 GB in size.

And yes, It does say TagCashe not ready, or something to that effect.  It says that when I reboot the Ipod, and try to access anything in tag cashe.  i.e. when I attempt to browse by Artist, or album, or whatever.

Llorean:
You missed the point. It doesn't say "TagCashe not ready" it says "TagCache not ready". I was trying to subtly correct your spelling by pointing out that the proper spelling of the word has clearly been shown to you at a minimum once, and possibly several more times than that.

Anyway, that's not "chkdisk does nothing" that's "My drive has problems beyond the abilities of chkdisk to fix". Have you tried running a surface scan? I'm not even sure if that's an option with chkdisk...

LanceUppercut:
Oh, Sorry about the spelling, i've never been to good with that, Although, I didn't think that this was a spelling bee.

Anyway,  I don't think that chkdsk doesn't offer a surface scan.  But since then I've formated the drive completely.  Any Truncated files should have been wiped out with that.  I doubt that there's any physical problems with the disk, as it's pretty new.  And besides that, it would be pretty wierd if damaged clusters only got written to with tag cache.
