Thank You for your continued support and contributions!
If it's hidden by the OF, it won't show up by default on their computer either... How exactly is having Rockbox not hide files marked as hidden (and probably hidden on the original computer) least surprise?
If you sync a Sansa with MTP mode (at least the C200 on Vista, for me) the files are renamed anyway. Making the folder unhidden won't help much.
Or maybe even simply "Always show MUSIC folder" with "MUSIC" being dependent on what the OF might name it (for future firmwares).
bookmarks: Yeah, they're at least half broken most of the time, aren't they? Maybe a GSoC project could be removing then, and reimplementing them from scratch with a better UI?

quickscreen: Repeat and shuffle often have dedicated buttons on CD players (and actually several MP3 players I own), making them semi-obvious targets for a quickscreen. File view, I think, is arguable for presence on the quickscreen though.
right vs select: I personally think "Select" should be the customizable one. "Right" should ALWAYS enter a folder, never insert it, since it's a "navigation" key. Other than that, I wouldn't mind giving "Select" a list of possible options, that list being "Same as right" plus every choice in the Insert / Queue list of options.
menu: Yeah, I was going to propose a reorganization, but being the lazy sod I am, haven't gotten around to it yet, beyond printing out most of the menu structure. Devcon could be really good for this.
Hidden Folders: If a user doesn't want a folder hidden, they SHOULDN'T HIDE IT. The OF quirks that apply JUST to the Sansa shouldn't be coded around. When we have our own USB mode it won't matter anyway.
Stop: I think Stop and Select should behave identically in terms of what screen they return you to. Specifically, for blind users, "Stop" is more practical than "Pause, then Select" since pausing stops the voice. If they want to clearly hear the name of the song being played, Stop needs to go to the current file. It's been requested an awful lot by them, and I think "Stop, then Menu" to get to the menu isn't too much of an imposition as opposed to just "Stop" getting to the menu, unless you feel like getting Voice to play while audio is Paused.
Hidden folders should be hidden. Â If some braindead OF does silly things, then that's a problem with the OF, not with Rockbox.
as for the playlist viewer.... I agree that its one of the more hidden screens and should be fixed up... first thing it needs to hapen is it to stop using the plugin buffer to store track names (why is this done anyway? doesnt playlist.c have a function to get the track name of any track in the playlist?)
bookmarks... another probably great feature which is a bit horrible (imo) to use which could do with some TLC from anyone with an idea how to do them better *looks around at the blank stares*
Maybe a cheap solution would be for RbUtil to unhide the Music folder during installation, on those players that need it?
