Rockbox can only read the embedded lyrics for mp3 files, not for ogg, flac, m4a. An extension for this would be great.

Other - Installation/Removal / Re: Surfans F20 v3.4 - jztool doesn't seem to activate the screen
« Last post by dconrad on October 08, 2024, 12:30:25 PM »Ok, yeah something's definitely different then. The fact that the blue light goes off makes me think perhaps they're using a different power controller than the AXP192...? I hope not, hopefully it's a simple change. We can't really do anything until we get an update file though.

« Last post by jdharper on October 08, 2024, 12:13:16 PM »I just tried the jztool again with the file you linked, just in case. Same result: as soon as I run the jztool command, the little blue light turns off, I get this message, and nothing happens after.
PS C:\Users\JD\Downloads> .\jztool.exe -v erosq load bootloader.erosq
[ NOTICE] Rockbox bootloader version: b4e7c60c6d-221029
Tried the same thing with the AIGO Eros Q hardware revision 3 bootloader from https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/JztoolInstall#jztool, and got the same result but with a different version number. The last digit is off by one from what's on the website but I'm assuming there's a typo on one or the other and that it's the right bootloader.

« Last post by dconrad on October 08, 2024, 10:05:46 AM »Correct. I load it in USB mode, the light is blue and the screen is off. Then I try to load the bootloader, the blue light goes off, but the menu never appears.
I have to push the power button for several seconds, wait, then push the power button again for several seconds again to make it turn back on in regular mode. Between that and the lack of errors, I'm assuming that it's loading the menu but never actually displaying it.
Here's the log from the jztools.js website:

Speachy got to it before me, but:
Ah, I see. It looks like the web jztool is automatically pulling the old bootloader from an old url which appears to not exist anymore... Although you would think it should throw an error in that case. It's also curious that the blue light goes out though, that should stay on.
BTW, thanks for noticing the version changed and being proactive about it
Edit: Just saw that you already said you had tried the command line jztool

It appears that this jztools website is out of date.
It should be using the 20240908-a7cfee640d build, and there's also a different bootloader for different HW generations.
Strictly speaking it shouldn't be using a specific version at all; there are symlinks in place that will always point at the latest bootloader release.

« Last post by dconrad on October 08, 2024, 08:09:31 AM »Ok, thanks for the heads up. Once we get a 3.4 update file we can figure out what may be different. So you put it in usbboot mode (the blue led is on, screen is off), plug it in and run jztool to send the bootloader and... nothing happens?

I can try the IAP-over-serial protocol -- are there any docs or wikis that can give me a headstart? If not, got any code samples or specific files to look at? I'm using an Apple iPod Video (5g), and am happy to implement some custom handling.
