maybe u can release something in the interim..because honestly...the freeze is bad on mine...almost making listening to anything a constant off-on / off-on deal....beyond frustrating..to say the least

*quick edit*
I didnt realize bacon fat had provided an attachment of the earlier build above....I guess i'll be using that till everything get's sorted out

I'm getting a lot more Data Abort messages with the oct 26th build. Seems to happen when switching a song. Also had it freeze midsong with a black screen so had to force shutdown. Thinking bout reinstalling, but too lazy x.x Hope this problem is only me

Problem: Shutdown

Description: Rarely when you try to Shutdown the Shutdown words appear and stays there: Inorder to shutdown when this problem occurs you'll have to force it to shut down.

Easiest way:

1. Delete the ".rockbox" directory (folder)
   
2. Run the Sansa Firmware updater.

Lots of lockups, will remove and redo everything.

[bacon_fat]

I hate to break this to you Zion but I've had a few lock-ups even with the old version I posted. The only other change I've made was installing the 0.4 bootloader with the 0.6 sansapatcher to get rid of OF USB database refreshing and I'm not even sure if it's even possible for that to have an effect on playback.

Anybody know if this is happening with the official build? I noticed a few things in the Rockbox forums but it moves so fast I can't tell what's what. There's definitely nothing specific to this in the bug tracker...

How do I add things to the quick menu? When I hold down the center button all I get is a blank menu.

[Benjamin_L]

bacon_fat: I just installed the latest bootloader, but OF still refreshes database. Am I missing something?

Hi, for me it's the same. I have some .wma-files on my sansa that i created using the mediaplayer (it was the fastest way . The first file plays correctly, but when it switches to the next file my sansa stutters and then hangs up with the data abort message. When I start playing the next file first it will hang when switching to the third, when playing the third first it will hang when switching to the fourth a.s.o.
I never experienced this before. Any hint about it? I don't think a reinstall will help since it started to happen after I updated to oct 26th release.
Mp3-files seem to play fine, so far.

Greetings

P.S.:Reinstalling doesn't help, i just deleted the complete .rockbox folder, did a new download of the oct 26th release and placed it on the sansa again. It still crashes, but now without error message. All I see now is a completely noisy screen and I have to press the power button for about 8 secs to shut down and reboot.

Track switching on the sansa is completely broken at the moment, and has been for several days at least. You'll need to use an older build until its sorted out.

That said, crashing is a bit odd. If it still does that with an older build, let me know. I'm still collecting problem samples if people have them.

Edit: Looks like the buffering issues on the Sansa are fixed. At least its working great for me.

mitsch: creating perfect mp3s using foobar2000 is at least as fast as creating crappy wmas with wmp

[mitsch]

Where can I get an older version of cpchans build?

[zion19139]

Pienose...thx for posting that...The database refresh in the OF was a bit of a nuisance,..everytime i wanted to add/ remove songs or charge the player..i had to wait for the player to go through the whole refresh deal...but not anymore...very nice...and btw...thx Bacon for putting up the other file...so far ..so good...no probs yet over here

And Mitsch if u scroll up to post #1718 you'll see an attachment to an earlier build put up by..bacon fat...hope that's what u meant
