I have that "problem", although it doesn't really bother me that much. I only get one or two brief (barely noticeable) dropouts, sometimes, all within the first 10 seconds of play after powering up the device. I've found that it seems to happen almost exclusively with mp3 files - it never happens with flac files. 

Common occurrences I've seen :

- After power up.
- After adding new music & USB disconnect
- After update & commit database.

I wonder if waiting minute for the system to settle down after power up before pressing play would make a difference?

Never had that issue.
Set to "auto resume" as well.
Using FLAC only though.
 
Cheers.

I notice it also when I set auto change directory - random. It happen when new folder is pick up.

Does the behavior change if you change the cpu governor in system settings?
Interactive or ondemand are regular governors while powersave keeps the prceasor on the lovest frequency. Preformance keeps it on the highest freuency.
It would be interesting if you could play around with governors and report back if it has an effect on your microcuts.
With my 64GB fat32 card i dont have microcuts...

I already tried it, and I didn't notice any difference.

Mine is set to Performance.

Lately I have been powering up the DX50 1st, making sure it & the screen boots Rockbox successfully and measure the battery left; and then I power the pre-amp & amp giving the system time to settle. The microcuts have been rare using this sequence.

I noticed, that I have issues. My card is Sandisk 32GB, ultra. By now I formatted to exFAT, but no matters.. On rockbox sometimes, when I skip track to track, music stops on few sec. (music most in FLAC, few in MP3), then I have to make a "hard reset". Identical situation I have on Mango. In folders I had only files with music, no other files like .ini, .cue., m3u, txt, etc.
Second problem was when I clicked on volume (+) wanted to increase volume-one channel stopped playing, then I had to make a hard reset (there was once time like this).
 
Previously I had fiio x5, never that stupid problems..
 
Someone will help me?

Sounds like a hardware problem of some kind to me. If it's happening in both mango and rockbox. I'd try restoring it to as close to original firmware as you can, see if that makes any difference. If not, try formatting your card to fat32, see if that helps.

Thanks
 
Problem had been also before I flashed to rockbox (card I had in FAT32 then exFAT and today I left on exFAT). I didnt try on Rockbox FAT32, I wonder, that doesnt matter, of course mSD over 32GB are in exFAT and they work. In dx 50's thread guys wrote that issues cause by Sandisk cards. "Coil" says that ADATA Premier CL10 64GB works perfect, so I've bought it - In thusday I check it.
 
"sduck" did you got that problem or similar? You was writing that You noticed on mp3s. Mine is mp3s and flacs.

No, I don't think I have the same problem as you are describing. I never have to do a "hard reset". Mine works fine.

In my case microcuts are solved. I formatted my 128gb card in fat32 (exfat before), and copied files again. For now problem gone.

Same here, no more microcuts at all since I formatted my card in FAT32 one year ago.

I confirm that this very annoying problem disappears permanently by formatting the card in FAT32

I noticed that player freezes, when last song in album (also in player) ends. That happen when there's turned off of loop. What cause? Turn on Loop, problem dissapear. Is it one of RB's bug?

Settings>Playback Settings> Auto Change Directory must be set to No for this to happen. I think. If you change it to Yes it should jump to the next directory. Or the first one alphabetically if it's the last one currently (again, I think, I don't use that setting). I always use the Random setting for this, and use the plugin to configure random play.
