iPod Video Rockbox boot screen
Llorean:
How would a sleep mode in Rockbox prevent you from having to reboot the Apple OS to get back to Rockbox?
Miki01:
I mean, you know when you're done listening to your iPod (in Apple OS) and you press+hold the Play/Pause button for it to 'sleep'? Then when you either turn hold off or press a button it 'wakes up'? I wanted that capability.
For RB, when you do the Play/Pause button procedure, you shut-down your iPod. Then when you press a button to 'awaken' it, it boots up your iPod from a complete shutdown.
aqtrans:
I'll admit that would be a very, very nice feature, but the main developers won't implement it because AFAIK, they only focus on features that all devices can benefit from, but if someone were to create a patch, then with enough luck, it might be commited to the SVN.
ryran:
In order to implement said feature, the project would need a lot more knowledge about the portalplayer chips that we just don't have. Short of some serious unforseen magic miracles, Rockbox on ipod is never going to be as good as the apple firmware with power management. They just can't do it. It has nothing to do with not wanting to spend the time on it.
