Hi, One thing I'd like to change about Rockbox is to enable auto bookmarking on USB insertion. This is to mitigate the problems with resuming playlists that get confused when files get removed (for example podcasts being deleted on sync as they have been played, see FS#1064).
I experimented with adding the autobookmark function to the USB insertion code in the wps display but I wasn't able to trigger this properly from within the simulator. The best I could manage was triggering the creation of the bookmark on the second "U" keypress, as far as the display was concerned the USB being unplugged. Digging into the code there seems to be a difference in the way the simulator simulates USB insertion and what would happen on the real event. Whereas the real USB insertion sends a message to all event queues and awaits acknowledgement from each thread the simulator just sends the event to a single button_queue. So my questions: * Should the simulator code attempt to replicate the real HW call sequence? This could be by sending a message to all threads or send a message to the USB thread (if it exists in simulator) to then send message on. * Does the event queue/wake up semantics of Rockbox OS behave the same way on the simulator platform?
