Re the bookmarking thing, under 'bookmarking' in the 'general settings' menu
option, you can set the option to automatically create a bookmark when you
press the stop button.  The list of bookmarks that get created are saved in
'bookmarks' and you can scroll through and press the middle button on which
ever one to resume playback.

Subject: [blindipod] H340 and rockbox

 

Hi all, 

Fantastic, I've got rockbox working on my h340. Thank god there are people
around like the developers of the rockbox software, I take my hat off to
them.

A few questions: 

1. I understand the process of getting regular updates of the rockbox
software itself via the daily builds link etc. But on the question of the
boot loader, does the FWPatcher.exe program change? In other words, should
we regularly download the FWPatcher.exe prog and reflash the firmware and
reload it? 

2. I am using the 1.29EU version of the firmware at present, I see there's a
1.30 version now up on the site, is there a view about whether this is
significantly better?

3. Am I right in thinking that now Rockbox is running on my player, it
completely replaces the Iriver software? In other words,

Should I regard the rockbox manual as the only source of info for the way
the system works or does the iriver manual still have any aplication for me,
apart from obvious details like the position of sockets etc?

4. Still at a very early stage in terms of being a able to use the player,
but could someone give me an idea of the best way to organise material on
the disk. In other words, do you normally create directories for each album
or book for example? 

5. A specific thing I can't manage to do is to drop a bookmark at the point
I'm paused in a file. 

Best 

Gary
