is pressed and the time Rockbox responds. Turning this setting on activates the
directory cache, and turning it off deactivates the directory cache.
Note: The first time you enable the directory cache, Rockbox will request a reboot
of the player and upon restarting take a few minutes to scan the drive. After this,
the directory cache will work in the background.
8.5.4. Idle Poweroff
Rockbox can be configured to turn off power after the unit has been idle for a defined
number of minutes. The player is idle when playback is stopped or paused. It is not idle
while the USB or charger is connected . Settings are either Off or 1 to 10 minutes in 1
minute steps. Then 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes are available.

8.5.5. Limits

This sub menu relates to limits in the Rockbox operating system.
Max Entries in File Browser. This setting controls the limit on the number of files that
you can put in any particular directory in the file browser. You can configure the
size to be between 50 and 10,000 files in steps of 50. The default is 400. Higher
values will shorten the music buffer, so you should increase this setting only if you
have directories with a large number of files.
Max Playlist Size. This setting controls the maximum size of a playlist. The playlist
size can be between 1,000 and 32,000 files, in steps of 1,000 (default is 10,000).
Higher values will shorten the music buffer, so you should increase this setting only
if you have very large playlists.

8.5.6. Car Adapter Mode

This option turns On and Off the car ignition auto stop function.
Car Adapter Mode. When using the player in a car, Car Adapter Mode automat-
ically stops playback on the player when power (i.e. from cigarette lighter power
adapter) to the external DC in jack is turned off. If the Car Adapter Mode is
set to On, Rockbox will pause playback when the external power off condition is
detected. Rockbox will then shutdown the player after the length of time set in the
Idle Poweroff setting (see above). If power to the DC in jack is turned back on
before the Idle Poweroff function has shut the player off, playback will be resumed
5 seconds after the power is applied. This delay is to allow for the time while the
car engine is being started.
Once the player is shut off either manually, or automatically with the Idle Poweroff
function, it must be powered up manually to resume playback.
