The perceived loudness change of a change in volume depends
on the listening volume: at high volumes a 1 dB increment is
noticeable, but at low volumes a larger increment is needed
to get a comparable change in loudness.
Perceptual volume adjustment accounts for this fact, and
divides the hardware volume range into a number of steps.
Each step changes the dB volume by a variable amount, with
most of the steps concentrated at higher volumes. This
makes it possible to sweep over the entire hardware volume
range quickly, without losing the ability to finely adjust
the volume at normal listening levels.
Use "Volume Adjustment Mode" in the system settings menu
to select perceptual volume mode. The number of steps used
is controlled by "Number of Volume Steps". (Number of steps
has no effect in direct adjustment mode.)
It's still possible to set a specific dB volume level from
the sound settings menu when perceptual volume is enabled,
and perceptual volume does not affect the volume displayed
by themes.

Use action-oriented and more descriptive titles
"Add to Playlist..." instead of "Playlist Catalogue"
- "Add to Existing Playlist" instead of "Add to Playlist"
- "Add to New Playlist" (unchanged)
- "Playing Next..." instead of "Current Playlist"
In WPS context menu:
- "Current Playlist" instead of "Playlist"

Increase the default limit to 5000 files for targets with at
least 8 MiB of RAM (the vast majority). The upper limit of the
setting is now 40,000 or 100,000 if you have at least 8 MiB or
16 MiB of RAM, respectively.
Update the manual to mention that this setting can also impact
the database browser. "Using the Database" already mentions it,
but it's useful to say so in the setting's description.

These settings have a warning that increasing them will shorten the
audio buffer. This is not very useful, because users might not know
what "shortening the music buffer" implies.
Since the size of the audio buffer is probably irrelevant for flash
based storage, display the warning only for HDD-based targets, and
explain what the drawbacks may be if the settings are set too high.

Useful feature for audiobooks. To rewind from the end of the previous track - press rewind at the very beginning of the current track. So if you are in the middle of the track - first rewind till beginning then release and press rewind button again (Playback Settings -> Rewind Across Tracks option should be enabled)

USB ask mode is basically a footgun: it can't work on native targets
and doesn't work reliably on hosted ones, and it continually produces
a slow trickle of problems. FS#13317 gives a rundown of the issues.
Removing the setting seems like the best solution for now, since a fix
would be pretty involved.
This partially reverts 60f581e8f5. The USB Mode setting is left in
place so the option can be added back later in a non-buggy way.

- Update the manual entry for PictureFlow with
the latest features and fix keymap
- Strongly suggest enabling the database's
"Load to RAM" feature (in my experience, this
can lead to a ~60x speedup when building the
album index)
- Suggest enabling the dircache, as it can
noticeably improve the loading times for
album art.

Large embedded album art can cause pauses during
playback or when skipping between tracks, especially
on older devices, but embedded art is currently loaded
even when separately stored smaller image files would be
available.
A workaround is to remove large album art from the
metadata of files.
This now adds a setting to either turn off loading of
album art completely, or to prefer loading the album art
from a separate image file and thus ignore the embedded
versions.

In addition to the existing behavior of pausing
after each song, this adds options to pause
after playing current:
Album,
Album Artist,
Artist,
Composer,
Grouping / Work, or
Genre.
Allows you, for example, to only listen to the
remaining movements of a classical work
without having to purge your playlist of any
upcoming songs.

Tested on ErosQ
Added a setting in the Advanced Softlock menu to always
have autolock on, rather than having to "arm" it with the
softlock button. Lock/Unlock still works the same with
this on, but when the screen turns off, the device always
ends up in the locked state. Requires Autolock On to be
set as well, and the normal Autolock functionality is
unchanged with this off.
Caveat: the power/softlock button must be pressed
at least once after powering on the device or enabling the
feature. After that, it should consistently always "arm"
the autolock.
Added feature to manual in
manual/configure_rockbox/system_options.tex. Also updated
some labels I had changed in the Advanced Key Lock menu
and added information for Disable All Lock Notifications
in a previous commit. Shared items also updated in
manual/configure_rockbox/display_options.tex for selective
backlight.

Options to add shuffled tracks and to queue tracks in the
Current Playlist Submenu can now be hidden, or the latter
can also be put into its own submenu.
Users can customize this in Settings by going to
"General Settings - Playlists -> Current Playlist" and
choosing from "Show Shuffled Adding Options" (No / Yes)
or "Show Queue Options" (No / Yes / In Submenu).
Allows for the paring down of the set of choices to
a minimum of the 4 more common ones for adding tracks
to a dynamic playlist (coming from the current total
of 11).
Defaults have been set so that users have to actively
modify their settings to notice any difference, which
makes it unlikely that anybody's workflow would be
negatively affected by this change.
