FLAC seeking patch - please help me test

(1/1)

RotAtoR:
I've finally gotten around to updating my patch for sample-accurate FLAC seeking. Currently Rockbox only supports seeking to the nearest seek point in FLAC files only if the file has a seek table. I'd like some people to test the patch and report to me any bugs you may find so that I can get this committed relatively quickly.

You can find the most recent patch attached to the latest comments on its tracker entry:
http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5892

If you have any questions please leave a reply here. ;) Thanks.

JonathanHull:
I'll test it.

Whats the easiest way to see if a FLAC file has seektables so I can find the ones in my collection that don't have them to test?

I guess I should also re-learn how to patch/compile since it's still on the tracker, too. Heh. That is unless someone feels like making me a H120 build with the patch. ;-P

I'm not sure of a good way to check if it has a seek table, but I'd generally assume it does unless you encoded it using dbpoweramp. I created test files by re-encoding my FLAC files using the "--no-seektable" parameter.

--- Code: ---metaflac --list --block-type=SEEKTABLE file.flac
--- End code ---

To remove a seektable:

--- Code: ---metaflac --remove --block-type=SEEKTABLE file.flac
--- End code ---

RotAtoR:
All tester have reported that it works fine so far, so the patch has now been committed. :D
