x5 tag cache nightmare

(1/5) > >>

wonderfibre:
The tag cache isn't working anymore on my X5L 30 :(

It constantly states 'tag cache not ready'

the debug page says:

=
initialized: Yes
DB Ready: No
RAM Cache: No
RAM: 0/0 B
Progress: -1% (0 entries)
Commit step: 0
Commit delayed: No
=

directory caching and load to RAM are switched on. nothing happens when i select 'update now'.

i've tried deleted the rockbox.iaudio file & the .rockbox folder and reinstalling it all but to no avail :(
i'm dualbooting using the power button short=rockbox & long=cowon - would this affect it?

is there a setting file which i'm missing? when i deleted rockbox and reinstalled it, my settings seemed to carry over!

edit: also - is it possible to do a 'factory settings' reset of the X5?

xlarge:
No problem,
reset settings under the menu - system settings - reset settings
delete all tagcache files under .rockbox folder.
Upgrade to the latest build (it works on mine, no worries).

boot rockbox, turn tagcache on and then let it finish it's scan through your files, reboot the x5 again let it lay for a couple of minutes comitting stuff...

That's my recipie every time tagcache gives me a headache (haven't had any problems for a while now though).

(the dualboot does not affect tagcache)

Factory settings? if you are talking about rockbox all you have to do is "reset settings", if you are talking about cowon original firmware you just have to flash the player with a cowon firmware and it's back to ... yeah what ever we should call the original firmware...

Settings are stored on a disk sector, not in a file, so deleting/formating won't reset settings.  Do it either through the menu or with whatever the startup button is for X5 (It's rec for H1x0).

hoo-effing-ray!

thanks guys! all seems to be functional again :D

wonderfibre:
scratch that. things have gone again!
all i (think i) did was move an album! i'll keep playing around with it

edit:
i follow this routine and it still doesn't work!

1) reset settings in system settings
2) delete rockbox.iaudio & the .rockbox folder
3) copy over latest build
4) boot up, initialize tagcache
5) turn on auto update and load to RAM
6) turn on directory cache
7) reboot
8) tag cache not ready

:(
