135 The peak meter can be displayed on the While Playing Screen and consists of
136 several indicators. For a picture of the peak meter, please see the While
137 Recording Screen on page \pageref{ref:Whilerecordingscreen}.
138
139 \begin{description}
140 \item [The bar:]
141 This is the wide horizontal bar. It represents the current volume value.
142 \item [The peak indicator:]
143 This is a little vertical line at the rightend of the bar. It indicates the
144 peak volume value that occurred recently.
145 \item [The clip indicator:]
146 This is a little black block that is displayed at the very right of the
147 scale when an overflow occurs. It usually doesn't show up during normal
148 playback unless you play an audio file that is distorted heavily. If you
149 encounter clipping while recording your recording will sound distorted. You
150 should lower the gain. Note that the clip detection is not very precise.
151 Clipping might occur without being indicated.
152 \item [The scale:]
153 Between the indicators of the right and left channel there are little dots.
154 These dots represent important volume values. In linear mode each dot is a
155 10\% mark. In dbfs mode the dots represent the following values (from right
156 to left): 0db, {}-3db, {}-6db, {}-9db, {}-12db, {}-18db, {}-24db, {}-30db,
157 {}-40db, {}-50db, {}-60db.

215 Rockbox handles function buttons in a different way to the Archos software.
216 \ButtonFOne\ is always bound to the menu function, while \ButtonFTwo\ and
217 \ButtonFThree\ enable two quick menus.
218
219 \ButtonFTwo\ displays some browse and play settings which are likely to be
220 changed frequently. This settings are Shuffle mode, Repeat mode and the Show
221 files options
222
223 Shuffle mode plays each track in the currently playing list in a random order
224 rather than in the order shown in the browser.
225
226 Repeat mode repeats either a single track (One) or the entire playlist (All).
227
228 Show files determines what type files can be seen in the browser. This can be
229 just MP3 files and directories (Music), Playlists, MP3 files and directories
230 (Playlists), any files that Rockbox supports (Supported) or all files on the
231 disk (All).
232
233 See page \pageref{ref:PlaybackOptions} for more information about these
234 settings.

236 \begin{table}

243
244 \ButtonFThree\ controls frequently used display options.
245
246 Scroll bar turns the display of the Scroll bar on the left of the screen on
247 or off.
248
249 Status bar turns the status display at the top of the screen on or off. Upside
250 down inverts the screen so that the top of the display appears nearest to the
251 buttons. This is sometimes useful when storing the \dap\ in a pocket. Key
252 assignments swap over with the display orientation where it is logical for
253 them to do so.

256 settings.
