Have you read the Rockbox Manual?

<< < (11/27) > >>

LambdaCalculus:
For every single time I install Rockbox to a new platform (for me, anyway), first things first:

Get the manual, read it all the way through, then I read it again... and to be sure, I read it once more.

Better to be prepared and well aware of what you're doing than to run about like a headless chicken, not knowing what the hell to do.

(Side note: having read the manual so many times has made Rockbox installation almost second nature for me!  ;) )

Continental Drifter:
The only thing I've ever read is the set of installation instructions for my player. The thing about having a portable music player is that I'm generally not at home with a computer and/or printed manuals to read about how it works. That being said, the interface and menus are so intuitive that you really don't need the manual to figure out how to do most things.

Is there anything in particular (i.e., certain sections) that a relative noob like myself should know from the manual in order to make the thing work better? I already have simplicity and functionality - what else could I hope for?

I heard about Rockbox from a friend, and had to have it because the firmware on the Gigabeat sucks. . . I want to steal all of my friends's music! Rockbox made that possible, but I didn't want to screw up a brand new player so I read the whole manual, and refer to the Wiki often.

The thing is, Rockbox has no many beneficial options, you don't know of them without reading the manual (and even then, some items haven't hit the manual yet--e.g. customizing the virtual keyboard so that it readily is readable ...).

Definitely, skim it at the least.  Really.
