First Keypress Enables Backlight Only. With this option enabled the first key-
press while the backlight is turned off will only turn the backlight on without
having any other effect. When disabled the first keypress will also perform
its appropriate action.
Brightness. Changes the brightness of your LCD display.
LCD Mode. This setting lets you invert the colours of the display.
Upside Down. Displays the screen so that the top of the display is nearest the
buttons. This is sometimes useful when carrying the player in a pocket for
easy access to the headphone socket.
Scrolling. This feature controls how text will scroll in Rockbox. You can configure the
following parameters:
Scroll Speed. Sets how many times per second the automatic horizontal scrolling
text will move a step.
Scroll Start Delay. Controls how many milliseconds Rockbox should wait before
a new text begins automatically scrolling.
Scroll Step Size. Defines the number of pixels the text should move for each step,
as used by the Scroll Speed setting.
Bidirectional Scroll Limit. Rockbox has two different automatic horizontal scrolling
methods: 1) always scrolling the text to the left until the line has ended and
then beginning again at the start, and 2) moving to the left until you can
read the end of the line and then scrolling right until you see the beginning
again. Rockbox chooses which method it should use depending of how much
it has to scroll to the left. This setting lets you tell Rockbox where that limit
is, expressed in percentage of the line length.
Screen Scrolls Out of View. Screens can be manually scrolled horizontally by
pressing Long Right/Left. Setting this option to Yes will keep the list
entries at their fixed positions and allow them to be scrolled out of view,
whereas No will only scroll those entries which surpass the right margin.
Screen Scroll Step Size. Defines the number of pixels the horizontal manual screen
scroll should move for each step.
Paged Scrolling. When set to Yes scrolling vertically on pages that surpass the
screen size will page up/down instead of simply changing lines. This can be
useful on slow displays.

Peak Release. This determines how fast the bar shrinks when the music becomes
softer. Lower values make the peak meter look smoother. Expressed in scale
units per 10 ms.
Peak Hold Time. Specifies the time after which the peak indicator will reset. For
example, if you set this value to 5 s, the peak indicator displays the loudest
