no music found with rockbox
« on: January 30, 2007, 04:54:19 AM »
hi everyone!
i'm new here and already have a problem..

i have a 5.5g ipod 30gb and put rockbox on it.. everything is working fine (themes etc.).. i thought. until i recognized that there is no music i can play!
even when i press menu until there is 'music' or 'all files' at the bottom. i don't find any music i can listen to
when i boot the original apple fw everything is working normal..

what could that be?
i already tried to reinstall rockbox, didn't help.. ???

Note: Rockbox starts in the File Browser. If you have loaded music onto your player using Itunes, you will not be able to see your music because Itunes changes your files’ names and hides them in directories in the Ipod_Control folder. You can view files placed on your player by Itunes by initialising and using Rockbox’s database. See section 4.2 for more information

Thanks...I knew that quote was in the manual somewhere, but I couldn't find it.  >:(
