698 \subsection{Putting music on your \dap{}}
700 \opt{usb_hid}{
701 \note{Due to a bug in some OS X versions, the \dap{} can not be mounted, unless
702 the USB HID feature is disabled. See \reference{ref:USB_HID} for more
703 information.\newline
707 With the \dap{} connected to the computer as an MSC/UMS device (like a
708 USB Drive), music files can be put on the player via any standard file
709 transfer method that you would use to copy files between drives (e.g. Drag-and-Drop).
710 Files may be placed wherever you like on the \dap{}, but it is strongly suggested
711 not to place them in the \fname{/.rockbox} folder.
712 The default directory structure that is assumed by some parts of Rockbox
713 \opt{albumart}{%
714 (album art searching, and missing-tag fallback in some WPSes) uses the
715 parent directory of a song as the Album name, and the parent directory of
716 that folder as the Artist name. WPSes may display information incorrectly if
717 your files are not properly tagged, and you have your music organized in a
718 way different than they assume when attempting to guess the Artist and Album
719 names from your filetree. See \reference{ref:album_art} for the requirements
720 for Album Art to work properly.
722 \nopt{albumart}{%
723 (missing-tag fallback in some WPSes) uses the parent directory of a song
724 as the Album name, and the parent directory of that folder as the Artist
725 name. WPSes may display
726 information incorrectly if your files are not properly tagged, and you have
727 your music organized in a way different than they assume when attempting to
728 guess the Artist and Album names from your filetree.
730 \opt{swcodec}{
731 See \reference{ref:Supportedaudioformats} for a list of supported audio
732 formats.
735 \subsection{The first contact}
737 After you have first started the \dap{}, you'll be presented by the
738 \setting{Main Menu}. From this menu you can reach every function of Rockbox,
739 for more information (see \reference{ref:main_menu}). To browse the files
740 on your \dap{}, select \setting{Files} (see \reference{ref:file_browser}), and to
741 browse in a view that is based on the meta-data\footnote{ID3 Tags, Vorbis
742 comments, etc.} of your audio files, select \setting{Database} (see
743 \reference{ref:database}).
745 \subsection{Basic controls}
746 When browsing files and moving through menus you usually get a list view
747 presented. The navigation in these lists are usually the same and should be
748 pretty intuitive.
749 In the tree view use \ActionStdNext{} and \ActionStdPrev{} to move around
750 the selection. Use \ActionStdOk{} to select an item. \opt{wheel_acceleration}{
751 Note that the scroll speed is accelerating the faster you rotate the wheel.}
752 When browsing the file system selecting an audio file plays it. The view
753 switches to the ``While playing screen'', usually abbreviated as ``WPS'' (see
754 \reference{ref:WPS}. The dynamic playlist gets replaced with the contents of
755 the current directory. This way you can easily treat directories as playlists.
756 The created dynamic playlist can be extended or modified while playing. This is
757 also known as ``on-the-fly playlist''.
758 To go back to the \setting{File Browser} stop the playback with the
759 \ActionWpsStop{} button or return to the file browser while keeping playback
760 running using \ActionWpsBrowse{}.
761 In list views you can go back one step with \ActionTreeParentDirectory.
763 \subsection{Basic concepts}
764 \subsubsection{Playlists}
765 Rockbox is playlist oriented. This means that every time you play an audio file,
766 a so-called ``dynamic playlist'' is generated, unless you play a saved
767 playlist. You can modify the dynamic playlist while playing and also save
768 it to a file. If you do not want to use playlists you can simply play your
769 files directory based.
770 Playlists are covered in detail in \reference{ref:working_with_playlists}.
772 \subsubsection{Menu}
773 From the menu you can customise Rockbox. Rockbox itself is very customisable.
774 Also there are some special menus for quick access to frequently used
775 functions.
777 \subsubsection{Context Menu}
778 Some views, especially the file browser and the WPS have a context menu.
779 From the file browser this can be accessed with \ActionStdContext{}.
780 The contents of the context menu vary, depending on the situation it gets
781 called. The context menu itself presents you with some operations you can
782 perform with the currently highlighted file. In the file browser this is
783 the file (or directory) that is highlighted by the cursor. From the WPS this is
784 the currently playing file. Also there are some actions that do not apply
785 to the current file but refer to the screen from which the context menu
786 gets called. One example is the playback menu, which can be called using
787 the context menu from within the WPS.
789 \section{Customising Rockbox}
790 Rockbox' User Interface can be customised using ``Themes''. Themes usually
791 only affect the visual appearance, but an advanced user can create a theme
792 that also changes various other settings like file view, LCD settings and
793 all other settings that can be modified using \fname{.cfg} files. This topic
794 is discussed in more detail in \reference{ref:manage_settings}.
795 The Rockbox distribution comes with some themes that should look nice on
796 your \dap{}.
798 \opt{lcd_bitmap}{
799 \note{Some of the themes shipped with Rockbox need additional
800 fonts from the fonts package, so make sure you installed them.
801 Also, if you downloaded additional themes from the Internet make sure you
802 have the needed fonts installed as otherwise the theme may not display
803 properly.}
