Chapter 4. Browsing and playing
Show Track Info
This screen is accessible from the WPS screen, and provides a detailed view of all the
identity information about the current track. This info is known as meta data and is
stored in audio file formats to keep information on artist, album etc. To access this
screen, press Long Play to access the WPS Context Menu and select Show Track
Info. Use Minus and Plus to move through the information.
Open With...
This Open With function is the same as the Open With function in the file browser's
Context Menu.
Delete
Delete the currently playing file. The file will be deleted but the playback of the file will
not stop immediately. Instead, the part of the file that has already been buffered (i.e.
read into the player's memory) will be played. This may even be the whole track.

4.4. Working with Playlists

4.4.1. Playlist terminology

Some common terms that are used in Rockbox when referring to playlists:
Directory. A playlist! One of the keys to getting the most out of Rockbox is under-
standing that Rockbox always considers the song that it is playing to be part of a
playlist, and in some situations, Rockbox will create a playlist automatically. For
example, if you are playing the contents of a directory, Rockbox will automatically
create a playlist containing all songs in it. This means that just about anything
that is described in this chapter with respect to playlists also applies to directories.
Dynamic playlist. A dynamic playlist is a playlist that is created "On the fly." Any
time you insert or queue tracks using the Playlist submenu (see section
(page 28)), you are creating (or adding to) a dynamic playlist.
