1.2. Getting more help

This manual is intended to be a comprehensive introduction to the Rockbox rmware. There is, however, more help available. The Rockbox website at http://www.rockbox.org/ contains very extensive documentation and guides written by members of the Rockbox community and this should be your rst port of call when looking for further help. If you cannot nd the information you are searching for on the Rockbox website there are a number of support channels you should have a look at. You can try the Rockbox forums located at http://forums.rockbox.org/. The mailing lists are another option, and can be found at http://www.rockbox.org/mail/. From that page you can subscribe to the lists and browse the archives. To search the list archives simply use the search eld that is located on the left side of the website. Furthermore, you can ask on IRC. The
main channel for Rockbox is #rockbox on irc://irc.freenode.net. Many helpful developers and users are usually around. Just join and ask your question (dont ask to ask!) if someone knows the answer youll usually get an answer pretty quickly. More information including IRC logs can be found at http://www.rockbox.org/irc/. We also have a web client so that you can join the Rockbox IRC channel without needing to install additional software onto your computer. If you think you have found a bug please make sure it actually is a bug and is still present in the most recent version of Rockbox. You should try to conrm that by using the above mentioned support channels rst. After that you can submit that issue to our tracker. Refer to section F (page 211) for details on how to use the tracker.
1.3. Naming conventions and marks
We have some conventions (especially for naming) that are intended to be consistent throughout this manual. Manufacturer and product names are formatted in accordance with the standard rules of English grammar, e.g. Toshiba playback is currently unsupported. Manufacturer and model names are proper nouns, and thus are written beginning with a capital letter. This manual has some parts that are marked with icons on the margin to help you nding important parts or parts you could skip. The following icons are used: Note: This indicates a note. A note starts always with the text Note. In order to make nding notes easier each one is accompanied by an icon in the margin as here. Notes are used to mark useful information that may help you to get the most out of Rockbox. Warning: This is a warning. In contrast to notes mentioned above, a warning should be taken more seriously. Whereas ignoring notes will not cause any serious damage, ignoring warnings could cause serious damage to your player. You really should read the warnings, especially if you are new to Rockbox. This icon marks a section that is intended especially for the blind and visually impaired. As they cannot read the manual in the same way sighted people do we have added some additional descriptions. If you are not blind or visually impaired you can probably completely skip these blocks. To make this easier, there is an icon shown in the margin on the right. Links to the wiki are abbreviated by the name of the wiki page. Those names are still linked so you can simply follow them like any other link in this manual. If you want to access a wiki page manually go to Z http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/ and type the page name in the Go box at the top of the page. Links to wiki pages are also indicated by the symbol Z in front of the page name.

4.3.2. Peak Meter

The peak meter can be displayed on the While Playing Screen and consists of several indicators. The bar: This is the wide horizontal bar. It represents the current volume value. The peak indicator: This is a little vertical line at the right end of the bar. It indicates the peak volume value that occurred recently. The clip indicator: This is a little black block that is displayed at the very right of the scale when an overow occurs. It usually does not show up during normal playback unless you play an audio le that is distorted heavily. Note: Note that the clip detection is not very precise. Clipping might occur without being indicated. The scale: Between the indicators of the right and left channel there are little dots. These dots represent important volume values. In linear mode each dot is a 10% mark. In dBFS mode the dots represent the following values (from right to left): 0 dB, -3 dB, -6 dB, -9 dB, -12 dB, -18 dB, -24 dB, -30 dB, -40 dB, -50 dB, -60 dB.
4.3.3. The WPS Context Menu
Like the context menu for the File Browser, the WPS Context Menu allows you quick access to some often used functions. Playlist The Playlist submenu allows you to view, save, search and reshue the current playlist. To change settings for the Playlist Viewer press Long Select while viewing the current playlist to bring up the Playlist Viewer Menu. In this menu, you can nd the Playlist Viewer Settings. Playlist Viewer Settings Show Icons. This toggles display of the icon for the currently selected playlist entry and the icon for moving a playlist entry Show Indicies. This toggles display of the line numbering for the playlist Track Display. This toggles between lename only and full path for playlist entries Save Current Playlist. Allows the current playlist to be saved as a.m3u8 playlist le
Chapter 4. Browsing and playing Playlist catalog
View catalog. This lists all playlists that are part of the Playlist catalog. You can load a new playlist directly from this list. Add to playlist. Adds the currently playing le to a playlist. Select the playlist you want the le to be added to and it will get appended to that playlist. Add to new playlist. Similar to the previous entry this will add the currently playing track to a playlist. You need to enter a name for the new playlist rst. Sound Settings This is a shortcut to the Sound Settings Menu, where you can congure volume, bass, treble, and other settings aecting the sound of your music. See section 6 (page 48) for more information. Playback Settings This is a shortcut to the Playback Settings Menu, where you can congure shue, repeat, party mode, skip length and other settings aecting the playback of your music. Rating The menu entry is only shown if Gather Runtime Information is enabled. It allows the assignment of a personal rating value (0 10) to a track which can be displayed in the WPS and used in the Database browser. The value wraps at 10. Bookmarks This allows you to create a bookmark in the currently-playing track.

Some common terms that are used in Rockbox when referring to playlists: Directory. A playlist! One of the keys to getting the most out of Rockbox is understanding that Rockbox always considers the song that it is playing to be part of a playlist, and in some situations, Rockbox will create a playlist automatically. For example, if you are playing the contents of a directory, Rockbox will automatically
create a playlist containing all songs in it. This means that just about anything that is described in this chapter with respect to playlists also applies to directories. Dynamic playlist. A dynamic playlist is a playlist that is created On the y. Any time you insert or queue tracks using the Playlist submenu (see section 4.4.3 (page 38)), you are creating (or adding to) a dynamic playlist. Insert. In Rockbox, to Insert an item into a playlist means putting an item into a playlist and leaving it there, even after it is played. As you will see later in this chapter, Rockbox can Insert into a playlist in several places. Queue. In Rockbox, to Queue a song means to put the song into a playlist and then to remove the song from the playlist once it has been played. The only dierence between Insert and Queue is that the Queue option removes the song from the playlist once it has been played, and the Insert option does not.
4.4.2. Creating playlists
Rockbox can create playlists in four dierent ways. By selecting (playing) a song from the File Browser Whenever a song is selected from the File Browser with Select or Right, Rockbox will automatically create a playlist containing all of the songs in that directory and start playback with the selected song. Note: If you already have created a dynamic playlist, playing a new song will erase the current dynamic playlist and create a new one. If you want to add a song to the current playlist rather than erasing the current playlist, see the section below on how to add music to a playlist. By using Insert and Queue functions If playback is stopped, the Insert and Queue functions can be used as described in 4.4.3 to create a new playlist instead of adding to an existing one. This will erase any dynamic playlist. By using the Playlist catalog The Playlist catalog makes it possible to modify and create playlists that are not currently playing. To do this select Playlist catalog in the Context Menu. There you will have two choices, Add to playlist adds the selected track or directory to an existing playlist and Add to a new playlist creates a new playlist containing the selected track or directory.
Note: All playlists in the Playlist catalog are stored by default in the /Playlists directory in the root of your players disk and playlists stored in other locations are not included in the catalog. It is however possible to move existing playlists there (see section 4.1.2 (page 25)). By using the Main Menu To create a playlist containing all music on your player, you can use the Create Playlist command in the Playlists menu found in the Main Menu. The created playlist will be named root.m3u8 and saved in the root of your players disk.

4.4.3. Adding music to playlists
Adding music to a dynamic playlist
Figure 4.5.: The Playlist Submenu
The Playlist Submenu is a submenu in the Context Menu (see section 4.1.2 (page 25)), it allows you to put tracks into a dynamic playlist. If there is no music currently playing, Rockbox will create a new dynamic playlist and put the selected track(s) into it. If there is music currently playing, Rockbox will put the selected track(s) into the current playlist. The place in which the newly selected tracks are added to the playlist is determined by the following options: Insert. Add track(s) immediately after any tracks added via the most recent Insert operation. If no tracks have yet been added via an Insert, new tracks will be
added immediately after the current playing track. If playback is stopped a new dynamic playlist will get created with the selected tracks. Insert Next. Add track(s) immediately after current playing track, no matter what else has been inserted. Insert Last. Add track(s) to end of playlist. Insert Shued. Add track(s) to the playlist in a random order. Insert Last Shued. Add tracks in a random order to the end of the playlist. Queue. Queue is the same as Insert except queued tracks are deleted immediately from the playlist after they have been played. Also, queued tracks are not saved to the playlist le (see section 5.8 (page 45)). Queue Next. Queue track(s) immediately after current playing track. Queue Last. Queue track(s) at end of playlist. Queue Shued. Queue track(s) in a random order. Queue Last Shued. Queue tracks in a random order at the end of the playlist. Play Next. Replaces all but the current playing track with track(s). Current playing track is queued. The Playlist Submenu can be used to add either single tracks or entire directories to a playlist. If the Playlist Submenu is invoked on a single track, it will put only that track into the playlist. On the other hand, if the Playlist Submenu is invoked on a directory, Rockbox adds all of the tracks in that directory to the playlist. Note: You can control whether or not Rockbox includes the contents of subdirectories when adding an entire directory to a playlist. Set the Settings General Settings Playlist Recursively Insert Directories setting to Yes if you would like Rockbox to include tracks in subdirectories as well as tracks in the currently-selected directory. Dynamic playlists are saved so resume will restore them exactly as they were before shutdown. Note: To view, save or reshue the current dynamic playlist use the Playlist sub menu in the WPS context menu or in the Main Menu.
4.4.4. Modifying playlists
Reshuing Reshuing the current playlist is easily done from the Playlist sub menu in the WPS, just select Reshuffle. Moving and removing tracks To move or remove a track from the current playlist enter the Playlist Viewer by selecting View Current Playlist in the Playlist submenu in the WPS context menu or the Main Menu. Once in the Playlist Viewer open the context menu on the track you want to move or remove. If you want to move the track, select Move in the context menu and then move the blinking cursor to the place where you want the track to be moved and conrm with Select or Right. To remove a track, simply select Remove in the context menu.

messed up your settings by use of this menu please try to reset all settings before asking for help.

5.11. Quick Screen

Although the Quick Screen is accessible from nearly everywhere, not just the Main Menu, it is worth mentioning here. It allows rapid access to your four favourite settings. The default settings are Shuffle (section 7 (page 55)), Repeat (section 7 (page 55)) and the Show Files (section 8.2 (page 63)) options, but almost all congurable options in Rockbox can be placed on this screen. To change the options, navigate through the menus to the setting you want to add and press Long Select. In the menu which appears you will be given options to place the setting on the Quick Screen. Press Long Menu to access it and Menu to exit. The direction buttons will modify the individual setting values as indicated by the arrow icons. Please note that the settings at opposite sides of the screen cycle through the available options in opposite directions. Therefore if you select the same setting at e.g. the top and bottom of the quickscreen, then pressing up and down will cycle through this setting in opposite directions.
Chapter 6. Sound Settings

6. Sound Settings

Figure 6.1.: The sound settings screen
The sound settings menu oers a selection of sound settings you may change to customise your listening experience.

6.1. Volume

This setting adjusts the volume of your music. Like most professional audio gear and many consumer audio products, Rockbox uses a decibel scale where 0 dB is a reference that indicates the maximum volume that the player can produce without possible distortion (clipping). All values lower than this reference will be negative and yield a progressively softer volume. Values higher than 0 dB are available and can be used to raise the volume more than would otherwise be possible. These volume levels will ordinarily lead to distorted sound, but might work nicely for music that has an otherwise low volume level. The volume can be adjusted from a minimum of -73 dB to a maximum of +6 dB.minimum of -74 dB to a maximum of +6 dB.

6.2. Bass

This setting emphasises or suppresses the lower (bass) frequencies in the sound. A value of 0 dB means that bass sounds are unaltered (at response).

6.3. Treble

This setting emphasises or suppresses the higher (treble) frequencies in the sound. A value of 0 dB means that treble sounds are unaltered (at response).

6.4. Balance

This setting controls the balance between the left and right channels. The default, 0, means that the left and right outputs are equal in volume. Negative numbers increase the volume of the left channel relative to the right, positive numbers increase the volume of the right channel relative to the left.

10.1.27. Snake 2

10.1.28. Sokoban

Figure 10.24.: Sokoban
The object of the game is to push boxes into their correct position in a crowded warehouse with a minimal number of pushes and moves. The boxes can only be pushed, never pulled, and only one can be pushed at a time. Sokoban may be used as a viewer for viewing saved solutions and playing external level sets with the.sok extension. Level sets should be in the standard Sokoban text format or RLE (Run Length Encoded). For more information about the level format, see http://sokobano.de/wiki/index.php?title=Level_format

10.1.29. Solitaire

Figure 10.25.: Klondike solitaire
This is the classic Klondike solitaire game for Rockbox. This is probably the best-known solitaire in the world. Many people do not even realize that other games exist. Though the name may not be familiar, the game itself certainly is. This is due in no small part to Microsofts inclusion of the the game in every version of Windows. Though popular, the odds of winning are rather low, perhaps one in thirty hands.

10.3.14. Theme Remove

This plugin oers a way to remove a theme. Open the Context Menu (see section 4.1.2 (page 25)) upon a theme.cfg le and select Open With. theme_remove. Some les are not removed regardless of the Remove Options such as rockbox_default.wps and the font le currently in use. Theme Remove menu Remove Theme. Selecting this will delete the les specied in the Remove Options. After a theme has been successfully removed, a log message is displayed listing which items have been deleted and which are being kept. Exit this screen by pressing any key. A le called theme_remove_log.txt is created in the root directory of your player listing all the changes. Remove Options. This menu species which items are removed if Remove Theme is selected in the menu. One of the following options can be chosen for each setting. Ask for Removal. Selecting this option brings up a dialogue with two options: press Select to conrm deletion or any other key to cancel. Remove if not Used. Selecting this option will remove the le automatically, if it is not used by another theme in the theme directory and not currently used. Never Remove. Selecting this option will always skip deleting the le.

Example %V(12,20,-,-,1) %Vf(000000) %Vb(FFFFFF) %sThis viewport is displayed permanently. It starts 12px from the left and %s20px from the top of the screen, and fills the rest of the screen from %sthat point. The lines will scroll if this text does not fit in the viewport. %sThe user font is used, and the foreground and background are set to black %sand white respectively.
Viewport denition width/height font foreground/background colours
Default value remaining part of screen user dened dened by theme
Chapter 11. Advanced Topics Conditional Viewports
Any viewport can be displayed either permanently or conditionally. Dening a viewport as %V(. will display it permanently. %Vl(identifier,.) This tag preloads a viewport for later display. identier is a single lowercase letter (a-z) and the. parameters use the same logic as the %V tag explained above. %Vd(identifier) Display the identier viewport. Viewports can share identiers so that you can display multiple viewports with one %Vd line.
Example %?C<%Vd(a)|%Vd(b)> %Vl(a,10,10,50,50,-) %Cl(0,0,50,50,c,c) %Cd %Vl(a,0,70,70,14,1) %s%acThere you have it: Album art. %Vl(b,20,14,50,14,1) %Vf(ff0000) %Vb(ffffff) %t(1)%acWarning:;%t(.1) %Vl(b,20,30,50,50,1) %Vf(000000) %Vb(ffffff) %sNo album art found %scheck your filenames.
This example checks for album art. Album art will be displayed in viewport a, if it is found. Otherwise a red ashing warning will be displayed in viewport b. Note: The tag to display conditional viewports must come before the tag to preload the viewport in the.wps le.
11.2.3. Info Viewport (SBS only)
As mentioned above, it is possible to set a UI viewport via the theme.cfg le. It is also possible to set the UI viewport through the SBS le, and to conditionally select dierent UI viewports. %Vi(label,.) This viewport is used as Custom UI Viewport in the case that the theme doesnt have a ui viewport set in the theme.cfg le. Having this is strongly recommended since it makes you able to use the SBS with other themes. If label is set this viewport can be selectivly used as the Info Viewport using the %VI tag. The. parameters use the same logic as the %V tag explained above. %VI(label) Set the Info Viewport to use the viewport called label, as declared with the previous tag.

11.2.4. Additional Fonts

Additional fonts can be loaded within each screen le to be used in that screen. In this way not only can you have dierent fonts between e.g. the menu and the WPS, but you can use multiple fonts in each of the individual screens. %Fl(id,filename,glyphs) id is the number you want to use in viewport declarations, 0 and 1 are reserved and so cant be used. lename is the font lename to load. Fonts should be stored in /.rockbox/fonts/ glyphs is an optional specication of how many unique glyphs to store in memory. Default is 256. An example would be: %Fl(2,12-Nimbus.fnt,100) Conditional Tags If/else: Syntax: %?xx<true|false> If the tag specied by xx has a value, the text between the < and the | is displayed (the true part), else the text between the | and the > is displayed (the false part). The else part is optional, so the | does not have to be specied if no else part is desired. The conditionals nest, so the text in the if and else part can contain all % commands, including conditionals. Enumerations: Syntax: %?xx<alt1|alt2|alt3|.|else> For tags with multiple values, like Play status, the conditional can hold a list of alternatives, one for each value the tag can have. Example enumeration:

Example %?mp<Stop|%Play|Pause|Ffwd|Rew>
The last else part is optional, and will be displayed if the tag has no value. The WPS parser will always display the last part if the tag has no value, or if the list of alternatives is too short. Next Song Info You can display information about the next song the song that is about to play after the one currently playing (unless you change the plan). If you use the upper-case versions of the three tags: F, I and D, they will instead refer to the next song instead of the current one. Example: %Ig is the genre name used in the next song and %Ff is the mp3 frequency. Note: The next song information will not be available at all times, but will most likely
be available at the end of a song. We suggest you use the conditional display tag a lot when displaying information about the next song! Alternating Sublines It is possible to group items on each line into 2 or more groups or sublines. Each subline will be displayed in succession on the line for a specied time, alternating continuously through each dened subline. Items on a line are broken into sublines with the semicolon ; character. The display time for each subline defaults to 2 seconds unless modied by using the %t tag to specify an alternate time (in seconds and optional tenths of a second) for the subline to be displayed. Subline related special characters and tags: ; Split items on a line into separate sublines %t Set the subline display time. The %t is followed by either integer seconds (%t5), or seconds and tenths of a second within () e.g. (%t(3.5)). Each alternating subline can still be optionally scrolled while it is being displayed, and scrollable formats can be displayed on the same line with non-scrollable formats (such as track elapsed time) as long as they are separated into dierent sublines. Example subline denition:
Example %s%t(4)%ia;%s%it;%t(3)%pc %pr : Display id3 artist for 4 seconds, Display id3 title for 2 seconds, Display current and remaining track time for 3 seconds, repeat.
Conditionals can be used with sublines to display a dierent set and/or number of sublines on the line depending on the evaluation of the conditional. Example subline with conditionals:

5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS

You may combine the Document with other documents released under this License, under the terms dened in section 4 above for modied versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodied, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers. The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but dierent contents, make the title of each such section unique by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work. In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled History in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled History; likewise combine any sections Entitled Acknowledgements, and any sections Entitled Dedications. You must delete all sections Entitled Endorsements.
6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects. You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an aggregate if the copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights of the compilations users beyond what the individual works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves derivative works of the Document. If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of the entire aggregate, the Documents Cover Texts may be placed on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole aggregate.

8. TRANSLATION

Translation is considered a kind of modication, so you may distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special permission from their copyright holders, but you may include translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a translation of this License, and all the license notices in the Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include the original English version of this License and the original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between the translation and the original version of this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will prevail. If a section in the Document is Entitled Acknowledgements, Dedications, or History, the requirement (section 4) to Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual title.

9. TERMINATION

You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
