Latest Rockbox not working on Nano

[Llorean]

Alright, thank you. I'll post here if I need more testing of anything specific.

Just a quick update. test1 does not fix my skipping problems.

[Llorean]

For the skipping problems, you should try to isolate the build it starts. This may require compiling builds, as simply isolating which day it started on is not terribly helpful.

[Farpenoodle]

I believe it's related to the problem at hand.

My 13762 build worked fine and I believe it's probably an issue of rockbox reading incorrect data off the flash. I'll compile a build of 13763 and 13767 and see if it's there.

It's a little harder to test this since it seems to occur somewhat randomly.

[Llorean]

Every build from 13763 until 13990 is likely to be broken for PP502x targets, or so I'm told. Which is why they aren't reliable for testing.

If you're using a version pre 1.3...

Well, sorry all, my mistake. I'm actually on 1.3.1

...and if I understand you correctly, Llorean, it's not possible to fully downgrade so that the flash image is identical to the 1.2 version and therefore may not be worthwhile for testing.

However, I would be willing to try, but obviously I'd need someone to post an image and talk me through the procedure. I'm unfamiliar with the Nano OF, as I 've only ever run Rockbox on this player

With 1.3.1, and a current build of Rockbox, is your iPod stable?

Test1 build boots properly, didn't see any graphical corruptions, but couldn't playback any songs, MP3 gave me codec failure and Vorbis data abort at 01f000c0.

Test3 couldn't find my partition, didn't boot.

With 1.3.1, and a current build of Rockbox, is your iPod stable?

Well, I've been running r14041 for a couple of hours now, first with default settings and then with a new theme and a database update.

I'm playing a mix of MP3, Vorbis and FLAC and I've not had a single hiccup or hitch yet...

[Farpenoodle]

Damn. So it's not 1.3.1 that's causing it?

At any rate, I've managed to pinpoint where my skipping problems start. r13767. I guess it's sensitive to clock speed changes or something.

Jumping on the bandwagon here,

• 4GB Black Nano
• Ran iPL once a long time ago (tried rockbox then, too)
• Running Apple firmware 1.3 (would update to 1.3.1 but the updater crashes vmware and I don't have a windows box handy)
• Partition table matches Llorean's

Jumping on the bandwagon here,

And...?

You are having problems, or you're not?

[sadffffff]

tried the current build last night (Version: r14054-070729) on my 4gb black nano with apple firmware version 1.1. everything worked just fine, mp3, vorbis, flac, doom. Except the mpeg viewer, which would (somewhat randomly) give me "Data abort at C0EDBABE" (lol) when playing files that played fine in older rb builds.

actually now im not sure if this is related at all. making a new thread.

Should 14053 fix the issue?

Please can I ask somene who's having a problem running music playback on a 1G Nano to report it to Flyspray, and post back with the bug number.  Then everyone else who's seeing the same can add a note too.  

I'm only referring to "general" crashing here - not when using plugins (such as mpegplayer).  They do need fixing too, but lets get the basics working first.
