Title: System hangs after transferring a few files -- transfer freezes
Post by: tyroneslothrop on February 25, 2016, 09:34:42 PM

Hey there, I just installed Rockbox on my iPod Video 5.5th Gen with the Tarkan iFlash (link below) and a PNY Elite Performance 128GB High Speed SDXC Class 10 SD card (link also below). The installation of Rockbox went just fine and it operates perfectly, but I can't transfer more than maybe 50mb of files before it just hangs.

I tried transferring files with HID both enabled and disabled and the same thing happens.

I tried looking through the manual for suggestions but can't find anything. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any response =)

You can try using the apple firmware in case compatibility with the adapter is better with their driver.

That's what I ended up doing, which worked fine. It seems to hang less when using a different computer, but still hangs occasionally. I might just remove Rockbox to transfer files then reinstall it when the transfer's done.

Are you aware that you can dual boot either firmware?
