There are minor cosmetic differences between Jukebox models, but the buttons are in approximately the same position as on the picture.\\ To turn on a Jukebox containing Rockbox, hold down the ON key for 2{}-3 seconds. (Flashed Jukeboxes only require a tap of the ON key {--} see page \textup{\pageref{ref:FlashingRockboxReal}} for more information about flashing Rockbox.) \label{ref:Safeshutdown}On shutdown, Rockbox automatically saves its settings and turns off the hard drive safely. To tell Rockbox to shut the Jukebox down, do the following: \begin{center}\begin{tabular}{|p{5.905cm}|p{10.558001cm}|} \hline {\centering\bfseries\itshape model \par} & {\centering\bfseries\itshape POWER OFF \par} \\\hline {\centering V2 / FM RECORDER/ ONDIO \par} & Hold the OFF key for 2{}-3 seconds \\\hline {\centering V1 RECORDER \par} & Double{}-tap the OFF key when playback is stopped \\\hline {\centering PLAYER \par} & From the Rockbox Main Menu select \textbf{Shutdown} \\\hline \end{tabular}\end{center} In the unlikely event of a software failure, a hardware power off can be performed by holding down STOP until the Jukebox power light goes off. This works for all models of Jukebox.\\ For further details about connecting, charging and caring for your Jukebox, please see the Archos manual that came with it. \section{\label{ref:PartIIFB}File Browser} {\centering\itshape [Warning: Image ignored] % Unhandled or unsupported graphics: %\includegraphics[width=4.15cm,height=2.35cm]{images/rockbox-manual-img11.png} [Warning: Image ignored] % Unhandled or unsupported graphics: %\includegraphics[width=4.15cm,height=1.981cm]{images/rockbox-manual-img12.png} \newline Recorder file browser Player file browser \par} The file browser helps you navigate through the files on your Jukebox, entering folders and executing the default action on each file. To help us differentiate files, each file format is displayed with an icon. You can select which file types are displayed (see page \pageref{ref:ShowFiles}). \subsection{\label{ref:PartIISectionCtrls}Controls} \opt{Rec}{ \begin{center}\begin{tabular}{|p{4cm}|p{10cm}|} \hline \tabelth{KEY} & \tabelth{FUNCTION} \\ \hline % \tabeltc{UP/DOWN} & Go to previous/next item in list.

It can also be accessed by holding down the PLAY key for a short while. It offers the following options: \begin{itemize} \item \textbf{Open with:} Runs a viewer plugin on the file. Normally the filetype of a file is detected and the appropriate plugin is run automatically when you press play on it. Use this menu if for some reason you want to override the default action and select a viewer by hand. See page \textmd{\pageref{ref:Viewersplugins}} for more details on viewers. For example, this would be used to run the VBRfix plugin to recreate the Xing header for an MP3 file, which can fix problems such as fast{}-forward and rewind not working correctly on a particular MP3 file or the play time of a track being listed incorrectly. \item \textbf{Playlist:} Change to the Playlist submenu (see below). \item \textbf{Rename:} This function lets the user modify a file name. \item \textbf{Delete:} Only files can be deleted, not folders. Rockbox will ask for confirmation before deleting a file. Press PLAY to confirm deletion or any other key to cancel. \item \textbf{Delete Directory: }Deletes the folder pointed to by the cursor and all the files and folders contained in it. Use with caution. \item \textbf{Create Directory:} Makes a new folder in the current folder on the disk. \end{itemize} \subsection{\label{ref:Playlistsubmenu}Playlist Submenu} If the playlist submenu is invoked on a directory, it will act on all the files within that directory. If invoked on a playlist it will act on all the files in that playlist. Otherwise it acts only on the current file. {\centering\itshape [Warning: Image ignored] % Unhandled or unsupported graphics: %\includegraphics[width=4.15cm,height=2.35cm]{images/rockbox-manual-img15.png} [Warning: Image ignored] % Unhandled or unsupported graphics: %\includegraphics[width=4.15cm,height=1.951cm]{images/rockbox-manual-img16.png} \newline Recorder playlist submenu Player playlist submenu \par} This menu provides the following options: \begin{itemize} \item \textbf{Insert:} Add track(s) to playlist. If no other tracks have been inserted then the selected track will be added immediately after current playing track, otherwise they will be added to end of insertion list. \item \textbf{Insert next: }Add track(s) immediately after current playing track, no matter what else has been inserted. \item \textbf{Insert last: }Add track(s) to end of playlist. \item \textbf{Queue: } Queue is the same as Insert except queued tracks are deleted immediately from the playlist after they've been played. Also, queued tracks are not saved to the playlist file (see page \pageref{ref:playlistoptions}). \item \textbf{Queue next:} Queue track(s) immediately after current playing track. \item \textbf{Queue last: }Queue track(s) at end of playlist. \end{itemize} You can insert a track, directory or playlist even if nothing is currently playing. In this case, a new playlist is created with only the selected tracks and then play is started. Note: The dynamic playlist is saved so resume will restore it exactly as before shutdown. Stopped playlists can be resumed from File Browser by pressing ON. \subsection{Virtual Keyboard} {\centering\itshape [Warning: Image ignored] % Unhandled or unsupported graphics: %\includegraphics[width=4.165cm,height=2.177cm]{images/rockbox-manual-img17.png} \textmd{ } [Warning: Image ignored] % Unhandled or unsupported graphics: %\includegraphics[width=4.598cm,height=2.071cm]{images/rockbox-manual-img18.png} \newline Recorder keyboard Player Keyboard \par} This is the virtual keyboard that is used when entering file names in Rockbox. \opt{Rec}{ \begin{tabular}[c]{|p{3.8799999cm}|p{12.653cm}|} \hline {\centering\bfseries\itshape KEY \par} & {\centering\bfseries\itshape FUNCTION \par} \\\hline {\centering ARROW KEYS \par} & Move about the virtual keyboard (moves the solid cursor) \\\hline {\centering ON+LEFT/RIGHT \par} & Move about within the current file name (moves the line cursor) \\\hline {\centering PLAY \par} & Inserts the currently selected keyboard letter at the current filename cursor position \\\hline {\centering STOP \par} & Exits the virtual keyboard without saving any changes \\\hline {\centering ON \par} & No action \\\hline {\centering F1 \par} & SHIFT: Shifts between the upper case, lower case and accented keyboards \\\hline {\centering F2 \par} & OK: Exits the virtual keyboard and saves any changer \\\hline {\centering F3 \par} & DEL: Deletes the character before the current filename cursor \\\hline \end{tabular} } \opt{PS}{ The current filename is always listed on the first line of the display.

It represents the current volume value. \item \textbf{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 \textbf{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 doesn't show up during normal playback unless you play an audio file that is distorted heavily. If you encounter clipping while recording your recording will sound distorted. You should lower the gain. Note that the clip detection is not very precise. Clipping might occur without being indicated. \item \textbf{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): 0db, {}-3db, {}-6db, {}-9db, {}-12db, {}-18db, {}-24db, {}-30db, {}-40db, {}-50db, {}-60db. \end{itemize} } \subsection{\label{ref:ID3viewer}ID3 Viewer} {\centering\itshape [Warning: Image ignored] % Unhandled or unsupported graphics: %\includegraphics[width=3.833cm,height=2.191cm]{images/rockbox-manual-img21.png} \newline The ID3 viewer \par} This screen is accessible from the WPS screen by pressing F1+ON (recorder) or MENU+ON (player).

F1 is always bound to the menu function, while F2 and F3 enable two quick menus. F2 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).
