Sansa Clip+ Suggestions
Prisoner416:
Loaded up Rockbox a few weeks ago on my Sansa Clip+, and I am loving it. However, there are a few suggestions I have.
1. The virtual keyboard has no delete function, rendering it useless for actually renaming files.
2. I can't seem to find a decent font that displays all my songs correctly. I have a large amount of Japanese music, and even Unifont can't display some of them. Another example that is borked is the Vertex series of mixes by Silvia (Vertex α, Vertex β, Vertex δ, and Vertex γ). Anything by Kyle Ward under his pseudonym Smiley (☺) is borked on artist listings. Is there a possibility of getting a really complete pack of a font? This is the main reason I have for going back to the Sansa firmware at times.
3. A play all function on the main menu would be nice, like the one the original Sansa firmware has.
4. Is there a midi plug-in? Not really needed, but would be neat.
Didgeridoohan:
1. Read the manual... Especially the part about the virtual keyboard. "Note: When the cursor is on the input line, Select deletes the preceding character"
2. Can't help you.
3. Use the context menu (long press SELECT) on the top of your music folder or in the database. From here you can add all your music to the dynamic playlist. For more details, the manual is your friend...
4. Yup, there is, and... You guessed it: The Manual!

Unifont is pretty complete:

If things like alphas and betas aren't showing up, theres a good chance the tags themselves aren't in unicode. Have you checked the codepage for them?

Tried Unifont, worked for a lot, but the examples I gave are still borked, plus the size is too big for most of my themes.
I'll upload a few example of files later tomorrow.
Update:
Tested with Sazanami-Mincho font, the only size 8 font supporting most of my files. GNU-Unifont breaks the titles even more, and most of my themes.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3800167/kaisouroku.mp3 - Title is totally broken.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3800167/vertex_beta.mp3 - Beta symbol is broken.

Those tags are gibberish in foobar as well, so its probably the files and not the font.
