Hold on a minute... are you saying that there's now a feature to set the brightness of the screen in rockbox? I checked out the major changes page and the recent changes page and couldn't find anything about this! Can someone verify?

EDIT: Found it! Yes, it does exist!

Hardware controlled backlight brightness for iPod Video and Nano, retaining the software PWM fade in/ fade out. * Backlight handling cleanup, getting rid of one layer of 'lowlevelness'. * Use atomic GPIO bit manipulation for PP502x backlight handling.

Hurray!

The only thing now that stops me from using rockbox is playing mp4 . Well actually it doens't matter as long as the mpeg plays faster then I just convert my mp4s to mpegs
