this happened to me three times in the last two weeks. in the car, it would just sputter... stop, sputter for a fraction of a second more, then stop, and restart the player (or reboot. i'm not too sure). i dont see a bootup animation, but i do see the player init screens.

i'm going to see if its specific mp3s... i.e. if it happens again, replay the song and see. i'm also going to let it play it overnight with the serial logging.
