So does it work now?

Since you have problems with SVN too, I suggest trying and older Rockbox build just to eliminate some possibilities.

Well, the SVN of the Mai 19th data abort'ed.
The SVN Mai 14th crashed once, but much later (50 seconds, instead of 10 after the track started). After a restart I could listen to 1 song, then I shut down the player.

Using your previous build without radio now, seems to work fine, as it allways did.

OK, it looks like a main line Rockbox problem. Can you report is on flyspray?

Thats weird,your build of the 19th works well, I bet you didn't use a SVN older than 5 days.

But I will report that for sure, I hope this helps the devs.

€dit: Do I have to register to report a bug? :/

[muhkuh]

ok now i have azure

but why is the sound stopping 1 second...

[pyr0sphere]

Umm why do you say Mai? I assume you mean May, and I know that's what it is in French

But if you are typing in English for the rest of your post, why are you intentionally typing Mai?

[kugel]

Hmm sorry, of course it wasn't my intention to type Mai, I just allways forget that it is May in english (in German,which is my origin, as well as in French it is Mai). I'm going to take more attention on the May now .

Back to my problem, I reported the bug now: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/7211

Just as a note, an API is NOT strictly an interface for interfacing with hardware. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API if you need more information, but it relates to one part of a program talking with either another part, or another program.

This can be a list of functions to tell the hardware what to do, or a list of functions to ask the kernel to do things, or a variety of other things. If a change is in truth only a change to the API, it should not affect sound quality, as all it does is change how you ask one thing to do things, not the things that you can ask it to do.

So please, don't get indignant about someone's response without doing some proper research first. If you go and read about the purpose of the Audio Hardware API patch, its purpose specifically is to abstract the access to audio hardware so that it's more similar across targets. Basically code cleanup, rather than a functionality change.

Anyway, I just rebooted the player

For me, the May 19th build was the best, it didn't crash at all. The May 25 build though has the same behaviour as described above. It happens when I play Bubbles () while listening to music. It happened twice or something like that but it was the first time I saw it.

I've had the constant data aborts too. Reinstalling bootloader and several different builds of rockbox didn't help. Here's how I fixed it:
Changed theme - reboot
Start playing a song - reboot

I had to do both things very fast to avoid the data abort, but it solved the problem. I've heard of others who solved it simply by rebooting quickly the first time they turned on player after an update.

[lazka]

It seems the abort only appears when there is no config.cfg file in the rockbox folder.

so 1) create an empty config.cfg file or
2) change any setting (like volume) etc.. don't play music and reboot.

[muhkuh]

with the newest version, i still have sound aborts

i wonder, why nobody else have this...

I did both, and it seems to work, no crash till now...very weird!

I had this happen as well while playing sudoku with the 5/25 build. Only happened once so far.

Updated to the newest build

I like how everything is organized now

[oregon]

Is the Doom issue fixed on this build yet? If not, that would be awesome if you could update it.

[pyr0sphere]

Yeah, it should be fixed.

Rockboy scrollwheel works at least

[lazka]

what do you guys think about this: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/7223

has anyone got the skill for this? - shouldn't be too difficult I think.
