Indeed, neither do I...its not as good as it was using the old firmware, but its a small price to pay for the format flexibility of Rockbox in my humble opinion.

I really notice no difference between battery of the original firmware and rockbox.

But i faced some stability issues as well alongside diminished battery life. So reverted back to the apple firmware. But this stupid volume cap is killing its purpose.. So again...

I'm considering doing this on my 120GB classic. From what I've read this does not allow for dual boot. Is that correct? If not how hard will it be to revert back to Apple firmware if I do not like it? These are the only thing holding me back from trying it at the moment.

 

[dippyboy_87]

No dual boot option yet. Going back to the original OS is as easy as anything.

One other question is will it work with LOD attached to an amp.  I imagine it will but just want to make sure since this is how I use it most of the time.

Well the menu DOES have a section for the line-out, so I'm assuming it will work. 

 

[c12mech]

Great.  I may try it out and see if it is for me.

Works fine with my Fiio L3 lod to my Fiio E5.

how do i uninstall rockbox? I love it but it KILLS battery life.

As a side note, there were a few folks stating that the channels were reversed. I checked today, and unless I made some sort of tragic mistake, this is not the case.
 
I checked using Miles Davis' Basin Street Blues off the album Seven Steps to Heaven (the stereo version, not the mono...*chuckle*). In it the piano plays in the right channel while the bass occupies the left.  I used the same flac files to check, playing them on my home stereo and then via my iPod, both through the conventional jack on the device and through my Fii0 E7 amp. All matched up.
 
A lot of folks called this a dealbreaker...fear not, it is either a myth, or resolved with the latest Rockbox build for use with Emcore..

Great to hear!

I think to uninstall you simply do a restore with itunes, but i could be wrong. The instructions are on the site/wiki.

hi how can i get the rockbox for 6g?
 

 

[SenorLoco]

I wish I saw (heard) the same thing, but my channels are definitely reversed.  I just did a quick test with a file that only plays out of the left channel and both the headphone jack and dock had it playing through the right channel.  Are you sure your home stereo is wired right?   What iPod do you have? Did you install using the basic instructions from freemyipod.org or did you do something different? 

 

[dippyboy_87]

I think his home stereo is swapped wired as well by mistake. Coz i'm back again into rockbox and still finding the same issue of stereo swap.
