Is 2.1.5 L2 rockbox patch in the pipeline?
I don't see the need for it.
Updated to latest dual boot firmware and Rockbox 2.1.5 a couple of days ago. Rockbox playback occasionally freezes randomly mid song (been trying to identify a pattern, nothing so far) then continues after 15-30 seconds. Track time usually skips backwards a few seconds as the playback resumes.
Anyone else experiencing this? I am running the "While Playing Screen" from the RedBox theme, everything else from the DriveBox theme, otherwise standard implementation.
My main motivation for running Rockbox on the DX90 is because I can't get enough bass for my liking from Mango for my Fidue a86 iems, currently running standard everything in Rockbox apart from +7db on the bass which is seems to be the sweet spot for my ears. if anyone cares to share some Mango eq settings that add a bit of extra punch I would probably leave Rockbox alone.
Edited to add that I am also getting about 6hrs off the stock battery via Rockbox.

Make You Factory reset in Mango after update to 2.1.5? I (any others) had problem with playing files in Mango until I make Factory reset. From update I had very little time to listen, so I can not say, if here is any problems in Rockbox.
PS: I am very happy for using RedBox
For headwhacker:
I too vote for Lurker´s 2.1.5 L2 with dualboot. Every is better to have choise.

Turns out the database wasn't being loaded to the onboard RAM on startup, causing slowdown/freezes when powering on the Dx90 for 1-2 minutes whilst 119gb of data was being read. Went to General Settings/Database/Load to Ram and set it to "Yes", which has solved the issue.
For those using "rayboradio_OB" theme:
I don't want to distribute any files as I'm not sure about copyright issues and intellectual property things involved.
And finally, the bitmaps were saved in 8-bit depth, it should also will work in 16-bit. 24 bit would be overkill for the screen resolution and the size of icons involved.
Cheers.
Are we really not updating the Rockbox port to include Lurker0's L2 firmware? I thought headwhaker was pulling our collective legs when he said it was unnecessary.
I have not seen one single person say L2 was anything but superior to L1. So why not upgrade the Rockbox build?
Hi @headwhacker. Since there isn't an update to Rockbox, maybe you could keep the same Rockbox build but replace Lurker's old firmware with his new L2 firmware for us?
There is nothing to update on the Rockbox build. There hasn't been one for more than a month now.
