question about how rockbox works

(1/4) > >>

zmac5407:
i have seen some screenshots of what rockbox looks like, and i noticed that it has the categories "Files, Database, Now Playing, Settings, Recording, Playlist, Plugins and System", i have an iPod video and haven't put rockbox on it yet and was wondering, if i "click" on database (or files) does it show the categories of "Coverflow, Artist, Album, Video, Photos" etc.  like the original firmware/software (or whatever its called) on the iPod?
 ???

psycho_maniac:
search the wiki for database. although if you do you get 542 topics so i will help you. here is all the info on the database. anymore may be in the manual.

I'm not completely sure but isn't the "coverflow" feature something that got added in newer Ipods or their firmware? Just trying to read between the lines here and point to the fact that Rockbox only runs on the players listed on the frontpage. So if my conclusion is correct that you got one of the 2nd or 3rd generation Nanos or the Ipod Classic you won't be able to use Rockbox.

nls:
Also rockbox uses _nothing_ from the original firmware but is a full replacement.
