Audio Playback, Database and Playlists / Database/Tagnavi: Possible to have “Songs never played”?
« Last post by rockboxswede on Today at 02:02:42 PM »Hi,
First and foremost - Thank you so much for the Rockbox project and all hard work and dedication that has made it possible. I have it running on my iPod and it works great!
I have (by guessing and luck) managed to change the tagnavi to give me some great “smart playlists”. I have tried countless of times to have a playlist with conditions are play count = 0 and rating = 0. But I have never succeeded.
Does anybody here have a playlist such as the one requested? Is it possible to do?
(I have one playlist with songs with play count greater than 0 and rating greater than 0 which works. But changing the “greater than lesser than” signs does not work.)
Thanks in advance!

« Last post by speachy on Today at 09:22:09 AM »We're trying to get ready for a major release, and as part of that, the more complete we can have our translations, the better!
As of this writing, we only have 12 translations with at least 90% coverage; of those about half are missing only a couple of strings. Not so coincidentally, translations with at least 90% coverage also get added to the daily voice file builds!
Meanwhile, about another dozen translations have around 80% coverage, and another dozen over 60%. Finally, seven more translations are in pretty bad shape.
Head over to https://translate.rockbox.org/ to see the current state of affairs, and to contribute changes to existing translations or even new ones.
Oh, to prevent duplicated effort, please post here (and/or in IRC) what you are working on.
The Rockbox Utility also needs updated translations, but we don't have a convenient mechanism to contribute those yet.
Thanks!

New Ports / Re: Fiio X1
« Last post by Taxicletter on Today at 05:34:05 AM »I understand there's good mp3 players for the same price, but I have a Fiio X1 (second edition), so it would be nice to be able to use RockBox on that.
Does this answer mean that, although slowly, someone indeed is working on this port?

I read somewhere that it is possible to close the contacts on Samsung chip on inner plate and somwhen it could help, so I'll try to find out more about. Otherwise it seems that I have to find the donor or buy the whole player.
Read the link above. Apparently you need a special flasher, a set of relevant drivers (probably on some old version of windows) and shorting 2 pins on the memory chip. I don't have the flasher and the drivers unfortunately though.

Repairing and Upgrading Rockbox Capable Players / Re: iPod Mini 2G Dramatic difference in battery life
« Last post by speachy on April 16, 2024, 10:29:09 AM »I have installed ab2af16c7c-240415 onto my 2nd Gen mini with CF->SD adapter. At the outset I'm seeing
SSD detected: yes
Power mgmt: unsupported
This is what I expected.
Should I first see how long it will run with the Apple firmware as a benchmark, and then run this test version of Rockbox? I figure I should do the Apple version first in case any corruption results from running the Rockbox version.
I'd expect battery life to not be so great with this, but the more important thing is to ensure there's no data corruption. copy files over to it, do a database update, generally abuse things.

[edit: addition] Or at this point are you only/mainly interested in stability/robustness, not necessarily power efficiency and how it compares to the Apple firmware's power efficiency?

Repairing and Upgrading Rockbox Capable Players / Re: iPod Mini 2G Dramatic difference in battery life
« Last post by speachy on April 16, 2024, 09:12:44 AM »I would be happy to test this if there is a fully built version I can install.
Here are test builds for the ipod5g, ipod6g, and mini2g:
https://www.shaftnet.org/~pizza/rockbox-ipod5g-exp.zip
https://www.shaftnet.org/~pizza/rockbox-mini2g-exp.zip
https://www.shaftnet.org/~pizza/rockbox-ipod6g-exp.zip
For the purposes of this testing, the mini2g and ipod5g are interchangeable from a hardware/software perspective, but the ipod6g needs to be independently tested.
All three identify as "ab2af16c7c-240415" and are are git master plus three patches from gerrit (#5647, #5648, and #5650) as of this writing.
I have been updating those three files as I've made more changes, so any test results need to include the version string (taken from the "rockbox info" menu item).
There appear to be no regressions on the mini2g and ipod5g with their original hard drives. I need data corruption and power consumption results for (1) real CF cards, (2), SD adapters, and (3) SATA adapters. I'll also need to have the ssd detection sanity checked too; that's in the disk info debug page.
If there are any issues, I will also need (1) the "identify info" file (dumped via the debug menu) and (2) the contents of the disk info screens (ideally everything, but at minumum the power management and SSD lines)
I have a mini2g, but when taking it apart yesterday to swap in a CF card, I think I damaged the clickwheel ribbon cable, so I'm probably not going to get any useful testing done on it. I also have a ipod5g with dead audio out that I intend to take apart for a SATA SSD swap, but I don't know when I'll have the time (and desk space) to get that done.
