Theming and Appearance Customization / Looking for a way for .sbs file to retrieve volume name of device
« Last post by iPodVT on Today at 09:42:45 AM »Is there a way for my .sbs theme file to retrieve the name of the volume on which Rockbox is installed? I'm not finding anything in the manual - all retrievable pathnames appear to be relative to the root directory of the volume. I'm (still) trying to find a clean way to display my iPods' unique user-assigned names without having to hardcode the names into each device's .sbs file. I figured out a kludgy way to do it with the names of each device's Playlist Catalog folder, but it's ugly and awkward, and in the end it just transfers the hardcoding from the .sbs file to the Playlist Catalog config setting.
Thanks.
Thanks.

The Usb information is:
ID 301a:2801 SmartlinkTechnology USB2.0 Device
The same manufacturer of my 1.77 inch player: https://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,54269.msg250949.html#msg250949
Functionality looks very similar to Actions SoC based players. Can't say anything nice about it.
I agree, it's like a Actions clone, but it's not actions.
So it must be a new version, instead a old version, newer than Spreadtrum.
At least this SoC has a decent DAC, unlike Spreadtrum. Although maybe in processor/ram is worst, I dont know yet.
The video format is AVI, is it?
Actions 1.77 inch players video format is AMV 160x128 (MJPEG video+AdPCM audio).
But this Actions-clone use a MJPEG AVI format 128x160 in 1.77 inch players and raw audio s16, 240x320 in 2.4 inch players.
Another good thing: Spreadtrum bluetooth doesnt work well in mono connections (using one earbud), it hangs after 20mins.
But this actions-clone works well with one earbud.
Besides, the battery consumption seems to be lower.

Yeah, recent booksmarks broke for me too when I updated from a months-old dev build to one from a few days ago.

2.4 inch player has a USB connector Type C.
i.e: it's not a old stock that's cheap because they can't sell. It's cheap because his pieces are really cheap and cheap to manufacture.

Rename current rockbox directory and unzip the zip file to the drive root
Your settings file will be out of the equation then..
