   3 To get MIDI file playback, a patchset is required. This file contains the
   4 instruments required to synthesize the music. A sample patchset is available
   5 through the wiki at \wikilink{PluginMidiPlay}, and needs to be extracted
   6 to the \fname{.rockbox} directory in the root of your player. There should
   7 now be a \fname{/.rockbox/patchset/} directory, with the patchset directory
   8 containing several \fname{.pat} files and two \fname {.cfg} files. Just
   9 select a MIDI file with either the \fname{.mid} or \fname{.midi} extension
  10 in the file browser to start playback.
