CrazyPod V1.0.1 is a maintenance release for iPod Classic 6G/7G devices.

Fixes

  • Fixed the LCD synchronization regression that could cause a white screen, purple vertical lines, or tearing on some panel variants. Type 0/1 panels use runtime-validated TE synchronization; type 2/3 panels keep the original Rockbox initialization.
  • Fixed Music Cover Flow lazy loading while a finger remains on the click wheel.
  • Replaced the unstable Photos menu thumbnails with a lightweight animated preview.
  • Preserved valid photo caches after USB storage refreshes, so unchanged photos no longer require full thumbnail regeneration.
  • Fixed the book reader center button opening the playlist picker. It now opens book actions for bookmarks and the playback queue.
  • Fixed Now Playing direction-button gestures: hold Right/Left to seek forward/backward; short presses retain next/previous behavior.
  • Simplified video playback into a full-screen, video-first interface and separated playback state from the MPEG backend.

Video compatibility

Real iPod hardware continues to support MPEG-1/2 video. MP4/M4V/MOV H.264 + AAC playback is available only in the macOS simulator; this release does not claim hardware H.264 support.

Installation

Use CrazyPod-V1.0.1-iPod6G.zip for a complete install or whenever packaged resources changed. Existing users with matching V1.0.1 resources may use the standalone rockbox.ipod file for controlled firmware-only updates.

Back up the device, verify the SHA-256 checksums, copy the firmware with rockbox.ipod written last, and safely eject before rebooting. The package does not install or replace the bootloader.

Validation

  • Clean iPod 6G ARM build with version V1.0.1
  • ZIP integrity and embedded firmware verification
  • UI architecture and host tests
  • Photo cache regression tests
  • Font coverage and localization audit
  • Mini App and EPUB host tests
