disabling the FILE BROWSER. You can browse the database by various tags
and search them. Only information present in music file tags are shown. For
a detailed description of TAG CACHE refer to section 3.3 (page 17).
Follow Playlist: This option determines what directory the FILE BROWSER displays
first. If FOLLOW PLAYLIST is set to YES, when you enter the FILE BROWSER from
the WPS, you will find yourself in the same directory as the currently playing file.
If FOLLOW PLAYLIST is set to NO, when you enter the FILE BROWSER from the
WPS, you will find yourself in the directory you were in when you last left the
FILE BROWSER.
Show Icons: Rockbox has the ability to display an icon to the left of the file in the FILE
BROWSER. For details of these icons, please see section A.1 (page 60).
Show Path: If this setting is set to FULL PATH the full path to the current directory will
be displayed on the first line in the FILE BROWSER. If set to CURRENT DIRECTORY
ONLY only the name of the current directory will be displayed.

17) for more information about using the Tag Cache.
