Rockbox General Discussion / Thanks everyone
« Last post by Frankenpod on September 10, 2024, 06:29:56 AM »Just saying 'thankyou' to all the still-active devs. I regularly check this forum (and the IRC logs) to see what activity is going on, and I'm pleased to see there's still lots of activity, with new cool features being added (despite the growing phone/streaming hegemony *boo hiss*).
Being of the obsessive-compulsive persuasion I've built an embarrassingly unnecessary number of flash-modded ipod classics, so RB is pretty-much an essential at this point.

Hardware / Re: AIGO EROS Q / AIGO EROS K / IRULU Surfans F20 / AGPTek H3 / HIFI WALKER H2
« Last post by dconrad on September 09, 2024, 11:03:12 PM »Just to update this thread about the Native port, we got the hardware v3 compatibility stuff merged, so v3 players can now use the v3 bootloader and v1/v1.5/v2 players can now use the v1v2 bootloader. They both use the same rockbox build. If your player is working well as is, no need to update the bootloader unless you want to for some reason.
See the Wiki Page (after it updates, I think it takes about a day from this post).

Starting Development and Compiling / Re: Switched to Android and programmed my own player
« Last post by Frankenpod on September 09, 2024, 02:41:01 PM »The concept makes me again think there ought to be such a thing as a meta-playlist or nested-playlist, i.e. a playlist-of-playlists. Similar to the idea here, but possibly allowing playlists to be sequenced in different orders or shuffled. To get really silly I suppose one could have unlimited levels of such a structure, but hard to imagine any use-case for that.

Repairing and Upgrading Rockbox Capable Players / Re: Sansa e200 series wheel problem
« Last post by clutch on September 09, 2024, 01:01:06 PM »Thanks Cronon, when I read contacts I figured I had a chance. My E200 has been skipping since I bought it off of ebay. I *thought* it was optical, learned that it is mechcanical. In a nutshell, remove back cover, remove screws for front cover, get down to looking at metal detail that clips on in four places. Use fine tweasers or a very small screw driver to pop that off. Clean conducting surfaces with some deoxit5.
Mine is now fixed.

Other - Installation/Removal / Re: Help with Installing Rockbox on a HifiWalker H2 with Stock Firmware 1.8
« Last post by Alice1337 on September 09, 2024, 08:15:10 AM »Okay, so the issue was me incorrectly renaming the update file. I took the instructions quite literally and renamed it update.upt which I'm guessing made it so it was actually named update.upt.upt which probably explains why the player wouldn't recognize it. Anyways, it's been fixed and I'm gonna enjoy this firmware.
Thanks guys!

Starting Development and Compiling / Re: Switched to Android and programmed my own player
« Last post by rokboxyo on September 08, 2024, 10:43:27 PM »Pardon the offtopic question, but how would you make such an "auto-DJ script"? New to rockbox and curious how such a thing would work.It's just a script that changes the playlist after a certain time elapsed. Record the time and switch to a different playlist after the end of the current song.
I need this because I have many different playlists with different genres/moods and I wanted to not have to choose the playlist myself when I start driving, and playing the same playlist endlessly gets boring

Audio Playback, Database and Playlists / Re: Sansa C200 dies trying to use the EQ
« Last post by saratoga on September 08, 2024, 07:40:09 PM »The c200v1 is only fast enough for maybe 4 or 5 EQ bands for most audio formats. I'd expect the V2 to be able to do all ten but I've never tested.
Since a lot of those bands overlap you could probably make that more efficient by using fewer bands. You've also got strongly positive gain so make sure you aren't clipping.

Audio Playback, Database and Playlists / Re: can't get AAC to play on agptek rocker and on sansa clip zip
« Last post by saratoga on September 08, 2024, 07:36:16 PM ».aac (raw AAC transport stream) and .mp4/.m4a (mpeg4 AAC audio) are both supported but the file extension must match the file contents. If you put the wrong file extension then the wrong decoder will be loaded and the file won't play.

« Last post by bahus on September 08, 2024, 05:40:14 PM »Yeah it might be extension related. Does it play if you simply rename extension to "mp4" or "m4a". If it fails check also if it shows valid track information (open context menu on file -> Show Track Info ).
