Thanks for this.

I found the menu item "System -> Debug (keep out)" and am not sure what to do now. If it explicitly says "keep out" I'm left wondering what the menu item is there for. Anyway, it sounds as if it might corrupt the system.

Is there another route to enable database logging ?

Don't worry about that "keep out". Most stuff under the debug menu is absolutely useless for regular users, and *some* of the items there might have unintended effects, but none of them should do long-term damage. The worst in there that I can think of is the CPU frequency setting where you can force "boosting" (i.e. make the CPU run at its highest clock speed regardless of need), which will drain the battery until the next time you power the player off.

The main reason it says "keep out" is that we don't want to have the forums full of questions about things in there :)

Aaah, thanks. I'll go in there and start the logging. Is it the item "Metadata log" ? That's the only Debug menu item which mentions the word "log". Where is the log file to be found once it's been written ?

P.S. I was amused to read your "The main reason it says "keep out" is that we don't want to have the forums full of questions about things in there :)". If you put a box on a street with the words "Do not look in this box" written on it you can be sure that 98% of the passers-by will look in  :-))

Thanks very much for this link. I can't find anything in there which seems to relate to the Sansa ClipZip. Does this matter or should I simply select a set at random ? Do you have any suggestions ?

Those are test files; basically mp3s and such. They're just music and not specifically related to any player.
