I've been experiencing problems using rockbox with podcasts for a few
weeks now:
* Seeking problems: with some files, going backwards sometimes actually
goes further than current position (the first time)
The "first" time? You mean before 0:00? Or before the display time
(like, stop seek when time display says 20:00, but playback starts at
around 6:00)?
* Progress indicator problems: with some files, the progress indicator
is not good at all, giving wrong (shorter) file duration, and then
giving a negative remaining time when playing past the indicated duration
If the podcast is in MP3 format, it could be because the file contains
somewhat bad data; not enough to prevent playback, but enough to fool
the time display in Rockbox.
* Some files can't be played at all (but work well with winamp).
I'm using daily builds, on the iPod video.
Are these known problems?
Maybe. :) For really large files (at least more than 30 MB) there could
be seeking problems...
I'm willing to put problematic files on a public server for you to
analyse if needed, tell me.
Please do - but I might not be able to look at it right away. Or maybe
you could just point to the podcasts in question.
