\section{\label{ref:WPS}While Playing Screen}
The While Playing Screen (WPS) displays various pieces of information about the
currently playing audio file.
%
\opt{lcd_bitmap}{%
  The appearance of the WPS can be configured using WPS configuration files.
  The items shown depend on your configuration -- all items can be turned on
  or off independently. Refer to \reference{ref:wps_tags} for details on how
  to change the display of the WPS.

  \subsection{\label{ref:peak_meter}Peak Meter}
  The peak meter can be displayed on the While Playing Screen and consists of
  several indicators. 
  \opt{recording}{
    For a picture of the peak meter, please see the While
    Recording Screen in \reference{ref:while_recording_screen}.
  }
  
  \begin{description}
  \item [The bar:]
    This is the wide horizontal bar. It represents the current volume value.
  \item [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.
  \item [The clip indicator:]
    This is a little black block that is displayed at the very right of the
    scale when an overflow occurs. It usually does not show up during normal
    playback unless you play an audio file that is distorted heavily.
    \opt{recording}{
      If you encounter clipping while recording, your recording will sound distorted.
      You should lower the gain.
    }
    \note{Note that the clip detection is not very precise.
     Clipping might occur without being indicated.}
  \item [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.
  \end{description}
}
\subsection{\label{sec:contextmenu}The WPS Context Menu}
Like the context menu for the \setting{File Browser}, the \setting{WPS Context Menu} 
allows you quick access to some often used functions.

\subsubsection{Playlist}
The \setting{Playlist} submenu allows you to view, save, search and
reshuffle the current playlist. To change settings for the
\setting{Playlist Viewer} press \ActionStdContext{} while viewing the current
playlist to bring up the \setting{Playlist Viewer Menu}. In this menu, you
can find the \setting{Playlist Viewer Settings}.

\subsubsection{Playlist Viewer Settings}
  \begin{description}
    \item[Show Icons.] This toggles display of the icon for the currently 
    selected playlist entry and the icon for moving a playlist entry
    \item[Show Indicies.] This toggles display of the line numbering for
       the playlist
    \item[Track Display.] This toggles between filename only and full path
       for playlist entries
    \item[Save Current Playlist.] Allows the current playlist to be saved as
       a \fname{.m3u8} playlist file
  \end{description}

    
\subsubsection{Playlist catalog}
  \begin{description}
    \item [View catalog.] This lists all playlists that are part of the
    Playlist catalog. You can load a new playlist directly from this list.
    \item [Add to playlist.] Adds the currently playing file to a playlist.
    Select the playlist you want the file to be added to and it will get
    appended to that playlist.
    \item [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 first.
  \end{description}

\subsubsection{Sound Settings}
This is a shortcut to the \setting{Sound Settings Menu}, where you can configure volume,
bass, treble, and other settings affecting the sound of your music.  
See \reference{ref:configure_rockbox_sound} for more information.

\subsubsection{Playback Settings}
This is a shortcut to the \setting{Playback Settings Menu}, where you can configure shuffle,
repeat, party mode, skip length and other settings affecting the playback of your music.  

\subsubsection{Rating}
The menu entry is only shown if \setting{Gather Runtime Information} is
enabled. It allows the asignment 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.

\subsubsection{Bookmarks}
This allows you to create a bookmark in the currently-playing track.

\subsubsection{\label{ref:trackinfoviewer}Show Track Info}
\screenshot{rockbox_interface/images/ss-id3-viewer}{The track info viewer}{}
This screen is accessible from the WPS screen, and provides a detailed view of
all the identity information about the current track. This info is known as
meta data and is stored in audio file formats to keep information on artist,
album etc. To access this screen, %
\opt{RECORDER_PAD,IRIVER_H100_PAD,IRIVER_H300_PAD,IRIVER_H10_PAD,%
      SANSA_C200_PAD,SANSA_E200_PAD,SANSA_FUZE_PAD}{
  press \ActionWpsIdThreeScreen. }%
\opt{PLAYER_PAD,ONDIO_PAD,IPOD_4G_PAD,IPOD_3G_PAD,IAUDIO_X5_PAD,IAUDIO_M3_PAD,%
      GIGABEAT_PAD,GIGABEAT_S_PAD,MROBE100_PAD,SANSA_CLIP_PAD,PBELL_VIBE500_PAD}{press
  \ActionWpsContext{} to access the \setting{WPS Context Menu} and select
  \setting{Show Track Info}. }%
\opt{RECORDER_PAD,PLAYER_PAD,ONDIO_PAD}{Use \ButtonLeft\ and \ButtonRight\
  to move through the information.}%

\subsubsection{Open With...}
This \setting{Open With} function is the same as the \setting{Open With} 
function in the file browser's \setting{Context Menu}.

\subsubsection{Delete}
Delete the currently playing file. The file will be deleted but the playback
of the file will not stop immediately. Instead, the part of the file that
has already been buffered (i.e. read into the \daps\ memory) will be played.
This may even be the whole track.

\opt{pitchscreen}{
  \subsubsection{\label{sec:pitchscreen}Pitch}
  
  The \setting{Pitch Screen} allows you to change the rate of playback
  (i.e. the playback speed and at the same time the pitch) of your
  \dap.  The rate value can be adjusted
  between 50\% and 200\%. 50\% means half the normal playback speed and a
  pitch that is an octave lower than the normal pitch. 200\% means double
  playback speed and a pitch that is an octave higher than the normal pitch.

  The rate can be changed in two modes: procentual and semitone.
  Initially, procentual mode is active.
  
  \opt{swcodec}{
    If you've enabled the \setting{Timestretch} option in
    \setting{Sound Settings} and have since rebooted, you can also use
    timestretch mode. This allows you to change the playback speed
    without affecting the pitch, and vice versa.
    
    In timestretch mode there are separate displays for pitch and
    speed, and each can be altered independently.  Due to the
    limitations of the algorithm, speed is limited to be between 35\%
    and 250\% of the current pitch value.  Pitch must maintain the
    same ratio as well as remain between 50\% and 200\%.
  }
  
  The value of the \opt{swcodec}{rate, pitch and speed}\nopt{swcodec}{rate}
  is not persistent, i.e. after the \dap\ is turned on it will
  always be set to 100\%.  \opt{swcodec}{ However, the rate, pitch and speed
  information will be stored in any bookmarks you may create
  (see \reference{ref:Bookmarkconfigactual}) and will be restored upon
  playing back those bookmarks.}

  Rockbox handles function buttons in a different way to the Archos software.
  \ButtonFOne\ is always bound to the menu function, while \ButtonFTwo\ and
  \ButtonFThree\ enable two quick screens.
  
  \ButtonFTwo\ displays some browse and play settings which are likely to be
  changed frequently. This settings are Shuffle mode, Repeat mode and the Show
  files options
  
  Shuffle mode plays each track in the currently playing list in a random order
  rather than in the order shown in the browser.

  Repeat mode repeats either a single track (One) or the entire playlist (All).

  Show files determines what type files can be seen in the browser.  This can be
  just MP3 files and directories (Music), Playlists, MP3 files and directories
  (Playlists), any files that Rockbox supports (Supported) or all files on the
  disk (All).

  See \reference{ref:PlaybackOptions} for more information about these
  settings.

  \begin{btnmap}
      \ButtonLeft & Control Shuffle mode setting. \\
      \ButtonRight & Control Repeat mode setting. \\
      \ButtonDown & Control Show file setting. \\
  \end{btnmap}
  
  \ButtonFThree\ controls frequently used display options.
  
  Scroll bar turns the display of the Scroll bar on the left of the screen on
  or off.
  
  Status bar turns the status display at the top of the screen on or off. 
  Upside down inverts the screen so that the top of the display appears nearest
  to the buttons. This is sometimes useful when storing the \dap\ in a pocket.
  Key assignments swap over with the display orientation where it is logical 
  for them to do so.

  See \reference{ref:Displayoptions} for more information about these
  settings.
