Ok, a couple of problems I see:
1. When saving a playlist,there's no keyboard support - Just the (poor) on-screen keyboard. In addition, the fonts are too small.
2. What's the backspace button mapped to? I can't figure it out.
Also, a couple of questions:
1. Is there any way to set the root directory for file-scanning? If not, can that feature be added?
2. I'm looking at customizing a wps - Would it be possible to add a close-button to it? What extra code would be needed to be added to this port to make it possible?
3. Would it be possible to simply compile this for standard Desktop Linux(i.e. Debian)? What would need to be changed?
Thanks.

P1: to be expected, will need more work also at the base (rockbox itself)
P2: no idea
Q1: I'm sure it is possible, as the simulator versions of target builds can do that. But it would take some flexibility out of the system. But a better root bout be OK
Q2: That would be shutdown or powerdown, as that's what Rockbox normally does on an mp3 player
Q3: there are sim builds of various targets, but I don't know if you can make a sim build of RaaA

Hey, this is getting really interesting !
Is it possible to use a BT device only as a remote (ie for its buttons), and still use the output jack for a wired headphone ?...
Windows 7 has two bluetooth connect buttons in the GUI, one for the play/pause/ff/rew "buttons" and one for the headphone output.

I don't know if its only me but rockbox can't browse to my emmc. When I browse to /home/user/MyDocs only .documents, .images, .sounds, .videos and DCIM are shown. I tried a bit of searching in this forum but doesn't seems like anyone faced the problem. And my emmc is partitioned into 20Gb MyDocs and 3+5Gbs for nitdroids.

Rockbox uses normal C function like opendir() or open() for file I/O, nothing magic in there as far as I know.

I am really happy for this port. The only thing i miss is the bookmarking. I listen to a lot of podcasts, and it would be great if rockbox remembered where it was so the resume play fuction worked like rockbox on my rockboxed sanza fuze player.
Would be one less device to carry around.
Would it be hard to get this to work?
Any ideas and tips on how to do it?
Or is there a work in progress on this?
Is there anything needed except installing the dev. environment and the rockbox source from the repo mentioned above?
Regards,
BitWit

It's still not working as expected, I have to dig further.

btw: Since yesterday we have embedded album art support! Will be in the next release.

For those who are not following Rockbox closely (via rockbox.org): Thomas now has commit access to the Rockbox server

All times are GMT. The time now is 07:02.
The two issues you mention come from there:
1) touch interface has only been introduced recently into the codebase and is improving every day. The players where Rockbox used to run on only had hardware keys.
2) Since the OS part of Rockbox is still somewhat present inside, CPU usage isn't optimal. On mp3 players it easily runs on a 80MHz target with plenty of cpu cycles to spare. So I am sure things will improve over time because the code really puts performance on the first place
