hi...
a friend recommended using rockbox so i decided to give it a shot,
i have installed rockbox into my sansa e250 and indeed found it pretty cool.
yet, rockbox has too many menus and option which a user like me can't understand, more than that, I'm even afraid to touch anything... so for the next version, i truly recommend to improve user interface in order to make it easier to use and navigate.

that's one, the other thing i wanted to say is that i saw my friend playing GameBoy Roms on his sansa.. and i kinda wanna ask you how he did it?

one more thing... my native language is Hebrew and i tried to turn system language into Hebrew but instead of that, letters disappeared... (already managed to get English back) anyways if you know what should i do, I'd be grateful...
** umm.. also songs titles which are in Hebrew are shown in Gibberish

thanks in advance for the help guys and I'm terribly sorry for my lame English, hope you understand ;)

unfortunately for some languages you need a font that has those characters. :(

fortunately there is a font with the characters you need... it is: 16-GNU-Unifont

all you need to do is unzip this to the root of you player, and set 16-GNU-Unifont as your font under the theme settings menu.

that should fix the disappearing text problem.  :)

nls:
To fix the song titles you may also need to select the correct codepage (see the manual on how to do that)
Using the game boy emulator called rockboy is also covered in the manual.

See the "Plugins" section of the manual, specifically "Rockboy".

hbanda:
first, thank you very much for the quick response!  ;D
my recommendation for improvment will be removing around 70% of submenus.
when an ordinary user sees rockbox for the first time, he sees a large menu that contains more and more sub menus that each and everyone of them has more menus.. and thats kinda scary cause he doesn't know what half of them mean and he's afraid to ruin anything...
that's why i'd leave all those advanced setting for proggramers, and just the basic settings such as equalizer for ordinary users.
besides that everything is perfect...

i'll be trying to fix hebrew now... hope i make it
cheers ;) !

edit: whoohaa MajiKool Blingâ„¢ you did! ;)
