Installation / Removal > Rockbox Utility

Rockbox utility can not detect my Sansa clip v1

<< < (3/3)

financialwar:
Thanks for your help. I managed to install Rockbox.

financialwar:
can rockbox display Asian characters? Sansa firmware could, but I'm getting boxes in Rockbox.

Yes, it can.

Not every font will necessarily have the required glyphs, though.

The only font that I am immediately aware of that has full glyph coverage is 16-Unifont.fnt, which is included in the font pack linked on the left hand side of this very page in the Extras section, or installable via Rockbox Utility.

On the awfully small screen of your device however, a 16pt font is going to drastically limit the amount of lines displayed at any one point in time in the lists and menus, and may possibly cause the while playing screen to render incorrectly.

And it can also be theme dependant, some themes (not the default, cabbiev2), will hardcode the fonts used instead of allowing a user selectable font, so the decision is effectively taken out of your hands and the glyph coverage is entirely dependant on the foresight, or lack thereof, of the theme's author.

Digging around you can find other fonts that have a lot of glyphs, I think the ubuntu and notofu and dejavu fonts for example have a lot.  Just get a bunch of fonts and see what displays right for your content.
