BUT

I also get the same sound in Rockbox using nothing at all (not even connecting the tunetalk)

Thanks for the reply

That indicates a hardware problem in your iPod.
Here is a sample recording I made with line-in selected as the source (your 5th generation has no microphone input) but without connecting anything to the line-in connector.

Hmm, -95dB noise floor on one channel, -75dB on the other.

EDIT:Changing the source selection to "Mic" produces identical results, so the clicking you are getting appears not to be as a result of Rockbox, but of your hardware.

pomme:
Great thanks. That's what I was looking for.

I wonder if I can get it exchanged since the problem is with a use outside of regular operations?

If you haven't already returned the Belkin product, I would take it with you to the Apple store, and demonstrate the clicking it causes on stock firmware. (remove all traces of rockbox first, including but not limited to the bootloader)
If they say "ahh, that Belkin POS is defective", have them test it on one of their iPods in the store - I'm willing to bet it will work fine.

pomme:
wordup thanks
