sporadic, random playback freezes on Gigabeat
Llorean:
Well, if they're Data Aborts, Illegal Instructions, or certain other types of errors, where it does something really wrong, you'll get a screen with a memory address. That paired with your SVN revision can actually help a lot in tracking down the error.

I too have had random lockups (Gigabeat X60 ).
Again no rhyme or reason.
Appears to happen mainly when playing back though, doesn't matter if playlist or files.
Basically just locks up and stops playing  >:(
No particular song or album, and on songs I've played before  ???
I've also had "no codec" errors even though I've played that song before.
I try to update the rockbox build as much as viably possible.
Other than that I'm really happy with the port.
Straight MP3s via drop and drag, no SAT encryption, ability to charge my Gigabeat via the USB cable while still playing via headphones.
It's got the lot.
I even mistakenly pressed on some music video clips one night  ( which I didn't even know I had in my music files ) while playing around and much to my suprise they started playing !!!!
Lip sync seemed a bit off but at least I know that if it keeps getting developed I can watch video clips ( not a major requirement but a nice to have ) Â
Well done guys, keep up the good work ( much is the pity I couldn't program to save myself  or I'd assist  ;) )

They have no readable error message, everything just freezes and the screen turns into weird colours. Both times it's happened with different SVN version, no idea which because I don't keep track of those.
Llorean:
I know you provide a customized build, Mad Cow. Are you running your custom build, or official unpatched builds when this happens?
Mad Cow:
The first time was an official build, the second time was most likely my custom build.
