Home Key on Clip V1
« on: July 02, 2011, 04:09:08 PM »
I put Rockbox on my Clip and have been using it for a few days.  I love it!  I can't figure out how to change the Home key so it goes to the WPS.  Please tell me there's an easy way to do this because I am not a programmer.

The keys aren't configurable without modifying the programming.

Seems to me the official Rockbox release should have the short or long Home button press map to the WPS.  It is much more convenient and useful than the current mappings.

You can get to the WPS from the key combination, or from the option in the main menu. You can't quickly get to the main menu any other way than by pressing the home button.

Can the WPS be added to the Quick Screen?  Or, maybe what we need is a config option to make the long Home button press go the WPS instead of the Quick Screen?

Why would you want to go to the quick screen and then go to the WPS rather than just using the WPS key combo?

Editing the keymap to achieve what is wanted here is *really* trivial, like...really.
The ideal place to start if you want to get your feet wet in the Rockbox source/compiling.
User-Configurable keymaps (in core) isn't going to happen any time soon, and it's even less likely that the default keymap would change IMO, it's been a long time coming and many discussions to get them into the state that they are now.

Using PMs to annoy devs about bugs/patches is not a good way to have the issue looked at.
