Fade On Stop/Pause: Enables and disables a fade effect when you pause or stop
playing a song. If the Fade on Stop/Pause option is set to YES, your music will
fade out when you stop or pause playback, and fade in when you resume play-
back.
Party Mode: Enables unstoppable music playback. When new songs are selected,
they are added to the end of the current dynamic playlist instead of being played
immediately. The PLAY and STOP buttons are disabled.
Auto Change Directory: Control what Rockbox does when it reaches the end of a
directory. If Auto Change Directory is set to YES, Rockbox will continue to the
next directory. If AUTO CHANGE DIRECTORY is set to NO, playback will stop at
the end of the current directory.
Note: You must have the REPEAT option set to NO for AUTO CHANGE DIREC-
b
TORY to function properly.
6.2. File View
The File View menu deals with options relating to how the File Browser displays files.
Sort Case Sensitive: If this option is set to YES, all files that start with upper case
letters will be listed first, followed by all files that begin with lower case letters. If
this option is set to NO, then case will be ignored when sorting files.
Sort Directories: This option controls how Rockbox sorts folders. The default is to
sort them alphabetically. BY DATE sorts them with the oldest folder first. BY
NEWEST DATE sorts them with the newest folder first.
Sort Files: This option controls how Rockbox sorts files. All of the options for SORT
DIRECTORIES are available in this option. In addition, there is a BY TYPE option

within each type.
