157 | \item [Browse .cfg Files: ]Opens the file browser in the | ||
158 | \fname{/.rockbox} directory and displays all \fname{.cfg} (configuration) files. | ||
159 | Selecting a \fname{.cfg} file will cause Rockbox to load the settings | ||
160 | contained in that file. Pressing \ButtonLeft\ will exit back to the menu. | ||
161 | See the \setting{Write .cfg files} option on the \setting{Manage Settings} menu for | ||
162 | details of how to save and edit a configuration file. | ||
163 | % | ||
164 | \item [Browse Firmwares: ]This displays a list of firmware file in | ||
165 | the \fname{/.rockbox} system directory. % | ||

170 | Playing a firmware file loads it into memory. Thus, it is possible to | ||
171 | run the original Archos firmware or a different version of Rockbox | ||
172 | from here assuming that you have the right files installed on your | ||
173 | disk. There is no need for any other file or directory to be installed | ||
174 | to use this option; the firmware is resident in that one file. | ||
175 | } | ||
176 | \item [Reset Settings: ]This wipes the saved settings in the \dap\ and | ||
177 | resets all settings to their default values. | ||
178 | \opt{h100, h300}{\note{You can also reset all settings to their default | ||
179 | values by turning off the \dap\, turning it back on, and pressing | ||
180 | the \ButtonRec button immediately after the \dap\ turns on.} | ||
181 | } | ||
182 | \item [Write .cfg file: ]This option writes a Rockbox configuration file | ||
183 | to your \daps\ hard disk. The configuration file has the \fname{.cfg} | ||
184 | extension and is used to store all of the user settings that are described | ||
185 | throughout this manual. | ||
186 | A configuration file may reside anywhere on the hard disk. Multiple | ||
187 | configuration files are permitted. So, for example, you could have | ||
188 | a \fname{car.cfg} file for the settings that you use while playing your | ||
189 | jukebox in your car, and a \fname{headphones.cfg} file to store the | ||
190 | settings that you use while listening to your \dap\ through headphones. | ||
191 | |||
192 | The Rockbox configuration file is a plain text file, so once you use the | ||
193 | \setting{Write .cfg file} option to create the file, you can edit the file | ||
194 | on your computer using any text editor program. See | ||
195 | \reference{ref:config_file_options} for available settings. Configuration | ||
196 | files use the following formatting rules: | ||
197 | % | ||
198 | \begin{enumerate} | ||
199 | \item Each setting must be on a separate line. | ||
200 | \item Each line has the format ``setting: value''. | ||
201 | \item Values must be within the ranges specified in this manual for each | ||
202 | setting. | ||
203 | \item Lines starting with \# are ignored. This lets you write comments | ||
204 | into your configuration files. | ||
205 | \end{enumerate} | ||
206 | |||
207 | Configuration files may be loaded using the \setting{Browse .cfg files} | ||
208 | option on the \setting{Manage Settings} menu. | ||
209 | |||
210 | \note{Configuration files do not need to contain all of the Rockbox | ||
211 | options. You can create configuration files that change only certain | ||
212 | settings. So, for example, supppose you typically use the \dap at one | ||
213 | volume in the car, and another when using headphones. Further, | ||
214 | suppose you like to use an inverse LCD when you're in the car, and | ||
215 | a regular LCD setting when you're using headphones. You could create | ||
216 | configuration files that control only the volume and LCD settings. | ||
217 | Create a few different files with different settings, give each file | ||
218 | a different name (such as \fname{car.cfg}, \fname{headphones.cfg}, | ||
219 | etc.), and you can then use the \setting{Browse .cfg files} option | ||
220 | to quickly change settings.} | ||
