From fde6eaa8e105eb2a177d826867f8e2fc3e066463 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aidan MacDonald Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2021 21:11:59 +0100 Subject: Add Fiio M3K and Shanling Q1 manuals Includes installation instructions and a description of Rockbox's limitations versus the original firmware. Some things are still missing, notably screenshots for the Q1. The M3K image also needs to be updated to include the 'select' button.
