Where To Place Music/Video Directories

(1/1)

jbloggs:
I have used the search fuction on the forum and also looked through the Rockbox manual regarding the best place to make the music & video directories on the iAudio player (and have failed to find anything), do I make them:

/.rockbox
/music
/video

Or do I place them as such:

/.rockbox/music
/.rockbox/video

I have tried both of these (mp3 files play both ways) but am not sure which is the right convention with the iAudio, I would tend to think it is the first option that is right, so my question is, which option is the correct way?

Many thanks for your help.

Llorean:
The correct way is "however you want it."

Most people prefer the first way.

Also, please read the POSTING IN THIS FORUM in a category before posting there.

Arioch:
i'd say that second option is a perverted one (though i would not say incorrect since user have full rights to put anything "however hr wantd it.")

1) will you once deinstall Rockbox - won't you thrash music as well ?
2) won’t there one day be some any plugin that will use the same-named folder and make a names clash ? Logically, anything under .rockbox is firmware or files for firmware.
3) dot-files are hidden files (in unix manner), so i think You would be hard to copy files there when connecting player to computer running Mac Os / Linux / BSD / etc
