ipod classic 6th gen. 2000mah battery. can only set max capacity to 1000mah

Hi

In Settings > General Settings > System > Battery > Battery Capacity the maximum setting is 1000mAh.
How do I increase the maximum setting to something other than 1000mAh.

Thanking you for any and all help.

Change the max value here, recompile.

That value is only used for runtime estimation though.

Hi

Thanks for that.

So can I assume that the 2000mAh battery will be charged to it's max capacity regardless of this setting?

Assuming it actually is a 2000mAh battery, yes.

Hi

Cool... thanks again.

I realise it makes no practical difference, other than changing the already-probably-wildly-inaccurate calculation about remaining run-time.  But rather than recompiling rockbox entirely, to achieve that, very questionable, improvement in accuracy for that figure, could one not just set the battery life in the fixed.cfg file?

That file allegedly allows values from 1500-3200
