Re: Porting rockbox to n900
 
I remember rockbox occasionally halting/stalling (always without timestretch - it was before I figured out that existed - which is long before my skin) and making that looping "trrrrrrrrrrr" sound just like in BSODs.

It wasn't very frequent, but it was there. With Timestretch enabled, it never happened.

It might have been fixed in the newest (2013ish) rockbox available for maemo though, no idea about that - don't plan in disabling Timestretch :P

It used to do that for me even with TS on, I guess it was a memory leak or due to high CPU usage.

Hey Thomas, are there any plans to fix the pausing bug?

EDIT: FIxed, see http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=305

here http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=2032 are some details of the crash. Unfortunately, there are no debug symbols available, so the backtrace is not very helpful. Maybe as a first step uploading a new version in the repos with debug symbols in the -dbg package will do the job, that way a coredump file could be analysed.

I think it has something to do with PulseAudio, because I just did a apt-get upgrade which installed quite a lot of PA stuff, and it fixed my pause bug!

So, they finally released a new Rockbox version last May.

Thomas, are you still planning on updating Rockbox to 3.14?

My N900 hasn't been booted in a year or so ;) Not sure if the Rockbox codebase compiles in the current state. I'm currently busy playing with other stuff, so this is low on my priority list. Feel free to give it a go :)

A Samsung Galaxy S5 running LineageOS replaced the N900. I still miss the keyboard, but the overall experience is much smoother. "PlayerPro" is a nice touch-friendly Rockbox alternative, at least when it comes to live playlist editing.

I might give compiling Rockbox for the N900 a go in the next months, but don't hold your breath.

Maaaaan, I would love a updated version of Rockbox, the latest one is quite buggy and I lack coding knowledge to compile 3.14 for Maemo.

Guys, does anyone has some themes for RockBox?? I've searched everywhere and I couldn't find any...

You can have a look here https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=89615, or ask there for reupload.

So I have compiled the 3.14 version and it seems to work.
The latest version from git compiles fine but produces some error about sdl when executed and playing a file.
