4.1 File Browser
Figure 4.1: The file browser
Rockbox lets you browse your music in either of two ways. The File Browser lets
you navigate through the files and directories on your player, entering directories and
executing the default action on each file. To help differentiate files, each file format is
displayed with an icon.
The Database Browser, on the other hand, allows you to navigate through the
music on your player using categories like album, artist, genre, etc.
You can select whether to browse using the File Browser or the Database Browser
by selecting either Files or Database in the Main Menu. If you choose the File
Browser, the Show Files setting lets you select what types of files you wish to view.
See section
8.2 (page 55 ) for more information on the Show Files setting.
Note: The File Browser allows you to manipulate your files in ways that are not
b
available within the Database Browser. Read more about Database in section 4.2
(page 25 ). The remainder of this section deals with the File Browser.
