I have just recently installed Rockbox on my 1st gen ipod mini. I am having trouble navigating the interface. If I wanted to make a playlist, such as on the original apple stock firmware, how would I do that? How would I make multiple playlists containing 2 or more songs and have easy access to them? I have tried everything relating to "playlists" in the interface with no avail. Please help.

Chronon:
Have you read the relevant sections in the manual?

anubis404:
Yes, I have, but i cannot understand how to do it. It is also my understanding that in the manual it states that if a playlist is created, playing a new song will delete that playlist. I want to know how to make multiple playlists with multiple songs in each. I cannot find out how to do that. It would be helpful if someone explained it.

Chronon:
Okay, I took a look at the manual and I agree that it could use some clean up.  In the "Adding music to  playlists" section (4.4.3) it mentions the Insert, Insert now, Insert last, Queue, etc. commands.  It says that these are found in the Playlist Submenu, which it says is a submenu of the File Menu.  This is probably where your confusion comes in since there's an entry called Files in the Main Menu.

At the beginning of Chapter 4 (4.1.1) it mentions the File Browser controls.  Among these it says to press Long Select in order to enter the File Menu.  So, once you have located a directory or file that you would like to add to your playlist you do a long press of Select to bring up the File Menu.  This will take you to the Playlist Submenu and everything should hopefully be clear from there.

Ok, so I long center click an MP3 and "insert" it. After I have done that a couple of times with a couple of songs, then what do I do?
