I have been experiencing this issue with my 6th gen clickwheel and 5th gen board.  Driving me crazy.  I am also curious about the slim back and the large battery...

  Looks good.  I tried painting a back, but it started chipping within a week or two.  I ended up stripping it and powder coating it.  Holding up great now.  I don't personally mind the logo not being there.   Wouldn't it make more sense to just buy a black back with the logo vs trying to...

Something you are seeing in the photo or from experience?  I dont have a 6th or 7th gen to compare to, but I am looking at it now and it looks very flush to me.  Hard to capture, maybe the lighting is catching the rim around the clickwheel and making it look off?  I tried taking a photo at a...

  That's odd.  I am running windows 7 on the machine I used to update my iPod, using 2 64GB SD cards as well and I copied and pasted all 100GBs just using explorer in one shot.  Haven't found a single corrupted file yet.   I noticed Tarkan says on his site "on average there is only 20%...

  Thanks!  What issues were you having?  I managed a very large collection of music, like most here, for a really long period of time.  I was only listening to a small percentage of what I had and the rest was getting in the way. I finally decided to start over in the FLAC format a few years...

Finished up another 5.5 gen.  Shaved down the 5.5 frame to fit the 6th gen space gray face plate, black wheel, space gray button, thick back powder coated satin black, 2000mah battery and Tarkan's dual SD adapter.  Running rockbox with my xhibition theme.  Really happy with this setup.  

Yes, elsewhere it will obviously look worse if you are stretching a smaller image to make it larger.  I resized my artwork down specifically for my iPod and keep my larger sizes in my main music library. To reiterate, it stops helping as soon as you go over whatever the resolution is of the...

    Yes, overkill.  In the post before your post, I commented that I am displaying full width artwork (320px) in my xhibition theme.  By resizing your artwork down to 320x320 in photoshop, for example, your artwork will display sharp and clear on your iPod using the xhibition theme.  If you...

Hey guys, I released a theme called redux 2 years ago for Rockbox and the iPod Video.  I left for awhile, but I am back again and have spent the last month working on a new theme.  I really wanted something polished and simplistic to bring rockbox on the iPod up to 2016.  I also wanted to do a...

  I remember seeing someone who did it years ago and decided I wanted to try it this time around.  I found a post by Antony who did a bunch of minis up nice.  Super nice guy. It's a decent amount of work for a simple color change, but I am really happy with the results.  Feels like the stock...

Wrapping up my latest iPod Mini:   Powder Coated Gold Shell Black 5G Wheel Mod 128GB SD w/ iFlash CF adapter Designed & 3D printed vent mount      

  iDemigods is out of stock.  I contacted a few eBay sellers who sell iPod related items, but they were all out of stock as well.  My point was just that this item specifically, seems to be rather hard to find and that is why I was asking if anyone happened to see any as of lately.      ...

  You do realize you are not being helpful?  If you know somewhere specifically that has them in stock at a fair price, that would be helpful to those who are looking.  If you aren't sure if what you saw in the past is or is not available, you aren't adding anything to the conversation.

  I am aware, but I assume you haven't tried looking?  160GB 6th gen black headphone jack replacements seem to be difficult to find. I wasn't being lazy.  If you do have a source, lmk.

Thanks!  Still can't seem to find any.  Anyone have a source?

  I am having a really hard time finding a 5th gen thick back jack in black at a reasonable price as well.  

  Here are the photos of the 5.5 with the Bluetooth transmitter installed inside the case.  It's my coworkers and I haven't looked at it since we set it up over a year ago.  When I popped it open, I pulled the ground cable loose.  I tried grounding it to the chassis as someone suggested, but...

  On the mini I was using the ground in the 4-pin connector next to the headphone jack.  I'll try grounding right to the chassis tonight.  I also want to try splicing right into the ipod battery wires, guessing its back feeding and won't help, but im curious.  I'll have to open up my 5.5 and...

I drilled a tiny hole with a button to control the bt from outside the case on my 5.5. You power up the bt transmitter and put in into pairing mode the first time. Then you put your receiver into pairing mode as well and they connect. The two transmitters I have will remember and reconnect to...

Still trying to retro fit a BT transmitter inside the iPod mini iTrip.  Opened a few different bt transmitters trying to find one that would fit inside the iTrip case without cutting it up.  They all seemed to be based around this bt module:       I found one that uses a very narrow board...

Not sure that there is much room left over in the mini. I'll have to look again.  I squeezed one inside an iPod video with a thick back, but it was extremely tight and then you get into having to drill a hole for a button and whatnot.  I just like the idea of having something that pops on and...

Been a little while since I checked in here, but I am back to playing around with my iPods.  I am in the process of upgrading my mini again and I am trying to gut an old iTrip and install a bluetooth transmitter inside it.  Seemed like it would be fun to keep the retro look, but upgrade the...

  Looks good!!  That is a ton of music.  You digging Redux?!  Any feedback on it?

  Awesome, thanks for uploading!  I am checking it out now.  You have some cool stuff going on here, I am going to have to take everything apart and figure it all out.  I will probably have a few questions for you then!     Did you pull these fonts from another skin?  I really wanted to use...

  Thank you rbhawaii.  Layout was done in photoshop. I used the Rockbox theme editor which is nice, it gives you a visual view of your viewpoints.  I didn't know about the rockbox simulator, so I was unplugging/restarting/testing my theme over and over on my iPod at the beginning.  Once I...
