Title: iPod 5G: Incorrect keys in bookmark menu
Post by: MisterScoundrel on October 05, 2006, 07:07:02 PM
I've been using Rockbox on a 5G iPod for a couple of months and love it. There's one strange thing I'd like to figure out, though:

When loading Recent Bookmarks or a .bmark file I get a menu like this:
File title
Bookmark: 1/1
Time: 10:35
PLAY = Select
OFF = Exit
ON+PLAY = Delete

The problem here is that I don't have ON or OFF buttons on my iPod. I found through trial and error that the buttons actually work as follows:

Menu = nothing
Select = play the current bookmark
Play = exit bookmark screen
Hold menu = delete the current bookmark
Hold select = create a new bookmark
Left/Right = cycle through the bookmarks

Additionally, when loading a bookmark by clicking the filename while using the automatic-load setting, I get two other options:

Down = List
Any Other = No

Scrolling down does not list bookmarks, it just starts the file at the beginning.

I'd appreciate it if anyone has any insight on this strange behavior. I'm a programmer and have perused the code from CVS a bit trying to see if I could figure out what needs to change, but I'm getting lost in the unfamiliar code.

What actually needs changes is the .lang file. The keymappings in it are just the Archos keymappings, and it needs an alternate display for the iPod builds. For an example of how to do this, search for the string "NAVI" in the file, as I believe there's some H100/H300 specific lang strings.

When you do fix it, or if you can't figure out how, a patch/bug should be posted to the tracker.
