Current build manuals

<< < (2/3) > >>

torne:
The manual is not automatically built as part of the build; we build the binaries for every code change but we only build the manual once per day, because it requires a lot of complicated tools that our build machines aren't guaranteed to have. So, there isn't an exactly matching manual for every build in the first place. Also, this would dramatically increase the size of the zipfiles... PDFs are big.

I understand. Thanks to all of you.

--- Quote ---Can I use a simulator some days older than the build? I don't understand why if I copy the .rockbox folder from my Fuze player (working!) to the simdisk I read (my translation from Italian language): "E:\...\simdisk\.rockbox\codecs\mpa.codec is not a valid Windows image. Verify by the installation disk."

You should never copy the .rockbox folder from a player to a sim. The sim and the player build are very different, and the codecs and plugins from one will not work with the other.

!!! I had done many adjustments in wps, fms, cfg, config.cfg in the simulator; after all the work my idea was copying all as-is to the Fuze... What can I/can not copy-and-paste?
Can I copy eqs, fmpresets, langs, recpresets, rocks, themes, wps, config.cfg? What else can I copy or not?

If in the Italian.lng file some words are wrong can I edit with some trick without recompiling? Is there some program to edit it similar to a text file?

I have already done years ago a donation to Rockbox for my H120; I will do another for my new Sansa Fuze. I like Rockbox very much. God bless you for your work.
Some time ago I asked a Rockbox SW for the menu's of LCD TV's like my Samsung. A simple menu system, with computer editing and backup of TV/Radio channels and presets would be fantastic!... (without modifying codecs and video/audio processing).

You can copy anything thats not machine code, since your computer and your mp3 player do not use the same processor.  So text files and such are ok, most other things are not.

You can edit the .lang file and compile a new .lng from it if I remember correctly.  I believe its documented in the wiki.
