478 Holding the Jukebox in front of you, there should be three rectangular buttons
479 in a horizontal line towards the middle of the unit, and below this centred on the
480 middle button there are four radial arc shaped buttons placed in a cross formation
481 with the circular play button as the centre of the cross. These are the navigation
482 controls. Below the cross and to the left are two other buttons.
484 The \ButtonOn{} button is the leftmost of the two buttons located below and to the
485 left of the navigation controls whereas the rightmost and little lower one of
486 these two is called \ButtonOff{}. The round button raised slightly higher than the
487 others in the centre of the navigation controls is the \ButtonPlay{} button. To
488 the right of the \ButtonPlay{} button there is the \ButtonRight{} button, left of
489 it is the \ButtonLeft{}, above it \ButtonUp{}, and below the \ButtonPlay{} button
490 there is the \ButtonDown{} button placed. In the row of three rectangular buttons
491 the following buttons can be found (from left to right): \ButtonFOne{}, \ButtonFTwo{}
492 and \ButtonFThree{}.

661 \subsection{Putting music on your \dap{}}
663 \opt{usb_hid}{
664 \note{Due to a bug in some OS X versions, the \dap{} can not be mounted, unless
665 the USB HID feature is disabled. See \reference{ref:USB_HID} for more
666 information.\newline
670 With the \dap{} connected to the computer as an MSC/UMS device (like a
671 USB Drive), music files can be put on the player via any standard file
672 transfer method that you would use to copy files between drives (e.g. Drag-and-Drop).
673 The default directory structure that is assumed by some parts of Rockbox
674 \opt{albumart}{%
675 (album art searching, and missing-tag fallback in some WPSes) uses the
676 parent directory of a song as the Album name, and the parent directory of
677 that folder as the Artist name. While files may be organized however you
678 like, see \reference{ref:album_art} for the requirements for Album
679 Art to work properly, and WPSes may display information incorrectly if your
680 files are not properly tagged, and you have your music organized in a way
681 different than they assume when attempting to guess the Artist and Album
682 names from your filetree.
684 \nopt{albumart}{%
685 (missing-tag fallback in some WPSes) uses the parent directory of a song
686 as the Album name, and the parent directory of that folder as the Artist

688 information incorrectly if your files are not properly tagged, and you have
689 your music organized in a way different than they assume when attempting to
690 guess the Artist and Album names from your filetree.
692 \opt{swcodec}{
693 See \reference{ref:Supportedaudioformats} for a list of supported audio
694 formats.
697 \subsection{The first contact}
699 After you have first started the \dap{}, you'll be presented by the
700 \setting{Main Menu}. From this menu you can reach every function of Rockbox,
701 for more information (see \reference{ref:main_menu}). To browse the files
702 on you \dap{}, select \setting{Files} (see \reference{ref:file_browser}), and to
703 browse in a view that is based on the meta-data\footnote{ID3 Tags, Vorbis
704 comments, etc.} of your audio files, select \setting{Database} (see
705 \reference{ref:database}).
707 \subsection{Basic controls}
708 When browsing files and moving through menus you usually get a list view
709 presented. The navigation in these lists are usually the same and should be
710 pretty intuitive.
711 In the tree view use \ActionStdNext{} and \ActionStdPrev{} to move around
712 the selection. Use \ActionStdOk{} to select an item. \opt{wheel_acceleration}{
713 Note that the scroll speed is accelerating the faster you rotate the wheel.}
714 When browsing the file system selecting an audio file plays it. The view
715 switches to the ``While playing screen'', usually abbreviated as ``WPS'' (see
716 \reference{ref:WPS}. The dynamic playlist gets replaced with the contents of
717 the current directory. This way you can easily treat directories as playlists.
718 The created dynamic playlist can be extended or modified while playing. This is
719 also known as ``on-the-fly playlist''.
720 To go back to the \setting{File Browser} stop the playback with the
721 \ActionWpsStop{} button or return to the file browser while keeping playback
722 running using \ActionWpsBrowse{}.
723 In list views you can go back one step with \ActionTreeParentDirectory.
725 \subsection{Basic concepts}
726 \subsubsection{Playlists}
727 Rockbox is playlist oriented. This means that every time you play an audio file,
728 a so-called ``dynamic playlist'' is generated, unless you play a saved
729 playlist. You can modify the dynamic playlist while playing and also save
730 it to a file. If you do not want to use playlists you can simply play your
731 files directory based.
732 Playlists are covered in detail in \reference{ref:working_with_playlists}.
734 \subsubsection{Menu}
735 From the menu you can customise Rockbox. Rockbox itself is very customisable.
736 Also there are some special menus for quick access to frequently used
737 functions.
739 \subsubsection{Context Menu}
740 Some views, especially the file browser and the WPS have a context menu.
741 From the file browser this can be accessed with \ActionStdContext{}.
742 The contents of the context menu vary, depending on the situation it gets
743 called. The context menu itself presents you with some operations you can
744 perform with the currently highlighted file. In the file browser this is
745 the file (or directory) that is highlighted by the cursor. From the WPS this is
746 the currently playing file. Also there are some actions that do not apply
747 to the current file but refer to the screen from which the context menu
748 gets called. One example is the playback menu, which can be called using
749 the context menu from within the WPS.
751 \section{Customising Rockbox}
752 Rockbox' User Interface can be customised using ``Themes''. Themes usually
753 only affect the visual appearance, but an advanced user can create a theme
754 that also changes various other settings like file view, LCD settings and
755 all other settings that can be modified using \fname{.cfg} files. This topic
756 is discussed in more detail in \reference{ref:manage_settings}.
757 The Rockbox distribution comes with some themes that should look nice on
758 your \dap{}.
760 \opt{lcd_bitmap}{
761 \note{Some of the themes shipped with Rockbox need additional
762 fonts from the fonts package, so make sure you installed them.
763 Also, if you downloaded additional themes from the Internet make sure you
764 have the needed fonts installed as otherwise the theme may not display
765 properly.}

770 \section{USB Charging}
772 The \dap{} can be charged over USB without connecting to your
773 computer by holding \ActionStdUsbCharge{} while plugging in. This
774 allows you to continue using the \dap{} normally.
