How does one get out of Rockbox on an N800, short of rebooting ?... :-)

Player seems highly functional (since it is ported desktop app) but I would love to get better skin though.

Installed it, started, killed and deinstalled it again. Sorry but the UI is just as horrible as I remembered it. Virtually every menu and submenu seems to have it's own system of navigation...

This software clearly is not meant to be used by me, neither on N900 nor on iriver or iPod...

I don't know how good the keyboard support is in rockbox, if at all. But I guess we can improve the touchscreen interface a lot.

With the current SDL graphics backend, unlikely. It should be doable to create a portrait mode only theme + remap the keyboard.

Yes, embedded album art has to be extracted:

There are tools to automate this It also reads .jpg files.

great so far, my first time using rockbox in any flavor. the menu is a bit deep for my tastes but maybe its cause im new to it.

is there anyway to set it to *not* display the next track. i listen to a lot of live music and would rather not know whats next.

also the volume was set to -24 dB or something like that. was this default or was it matched to the n900 output stage?

This is all highly configurable (except for the menu system, which is so deep because of all the options)

The next track display depends on the theme, I guess you could alter the default one as there are probably no n900 specific themes available right now.

The volume setting is a safe default one, as rockbox normally runs on the hardware directly, and as such controls the absolute volume

For rockbox specific issues that are not related to the n900 port itself (yes, I know this is sometimes hard to define), please check the wiki and forum on http://rockbox.org
