  That sounds like the filenames Apple's firmware uses when storing tracks in its database.
  If you want to continue using Apple's iPod firmware and/or using iTunes, you need to read in the manual about Rockbox's Database.

  If you don't care to use Apple's iPod firmware or iTunes anymore you can:
A)  Delete the entire iPod_control folder and all your music in it, and re add  your music using any file manager including Windows Explorer.
B)  Use a tagging program to rename the tracks already on your iPod based upon their metadata.
C)  Use Rockbox's Database, leaving the existing files where they are, and adding new files by whatever method you prefer.
