IRiver H340 - Putting Music on Your Player

CHAPTER 3. QUICK START 19
3.1.2 Turning the player on and off
To turn on and off your Rockbox enabled player use the following keys:
Key Action
Play Start Rockbox
Long Stop Shutdown Rockbox
On shutdown, Rockbox automatically saves its settings.
If you have problems with your settings, such as accidentally having set the colours
to black on black, they can be reset at boot time. See the Reset Settings in section 11.3.3
(page 137) for details.
In the unlikely event of a software failure, a hardware reset can be performed by
inserting a paperclip gently into the Reset hole.
3.1.3 Starting the original firmware
Rockbox has a dual-boot feature. To boot into the original firmware, when the player is
turned off, press and hold the Rec button, and then press the Play button.
3.1.4 Putting music on your player
With the player connected to the computer as an MSC/UMS device (like a USB Drive),
music files can be put on the player via any standard file transfer method that you
would use to copy files between drives (e.g. Drag ’n’ Drop). The default directory
structure that is assumed by some parts of Rockbox (album art searching, WPS missing-
tag fallback) is: /ArtistName/AlbumName/*.ext. See section A.2 (page 139) for a list
of supported audio formats.
3.1.5 The first contact
After you have first started the player you’ll be presented by the MAIN MENU. From
this menu you can reach every function of Rockbox, for more information (see sec-
tion 5.1 (page 38)). To browse the files on you player select FILES (see section 4.1
(page 22)), and to browse in a view that is based on the meta-data
1
of your audio files,
select DATABASE (see section 4.2 (page 26)).
3.1.6 Basic controls
When browsing files and moving through menus you usually get a list view presented.
The navigation in these lists are usually the same and should be pretty intuitive. In
