Rockbox freezes on ogg files fix - 17:41
After messing around with my ipod for a while upgrading it to rockbox v3.4 to
see if it would play some ogg files it was freezing on I discovered a simple
fix at last. If an ogg file has id3 or id3v2 tags it appears rock box will
refuse to play the file. I had been wondering for a year or so why my violent
femmes albums I ripped onto the ipod would not play, however was not to fussed
as I was not listening to them overly much. However I ripped a new album I
bought and was most annoyed to find I could not play it.
Happily now I have discovered this problem I have easily removed all the id3
and id3v2 tags form ogg files on the device with "find -name '*.ogg' -print0 |
xargs -0 id3v2 -D" and hey presto I can now play all these files again easily.
The ogg/vorbis tag remains intact, for some reason I had add id3 tags ticked
in grip without restricting it to files ending in .mp3.
