+Rockbox FAQ
+
+
+Q. What is Rockbox, what is it's purpose?
+A. The purpose of this project is to write an Open Source replacement
+ firmware for the Archos Jukebox 6000, Studio 20 and Recorder MP3 players.
+
+Q. Can the changes or the software that Rockbox suggests or offers
+ possibly damage my Archos Player?
+A. All firmware mods that are presented still highly experimental.
+ Try them on your own risk. We offer no garuntee that this software/hardware
+ changes won't damage your player or void your warentee.
+
+Q. Do you have a mailing list?
+A. Sure do! The list is rockbox@cool.haxx.se. To subscribe, send you need to
+ send a message to majordomo@cool.haxx.se with the words "subscribe rockbox"
+ in the body.
+
+Q. Great you have a mailing list! Is there anyway for me to catch up on
+ past posts?
+A. Check out the archives at: http://bjorn.haxx.se/rockbox/mail.cgi
+
+Q. I want to see what the inside of my player looks like, but I would really
+ like to avoid voiding my warentee. Is there anything you can suggest?
+A. Well Björn Stenberg was kind enough to void his warentee so you don't have
+ to. Take a look at his dissection of the player at:
+ http://bjorn.haxx.se/isd200/archos.html
+
+Q. What exactly are you trying to achieve with this line of development?
+ (A.K.A. whats your purpose for being here?)
+A. Well, some of the ideas that have been presented/discussed for the future
+ that we would like to see would include (in no particular order):
+ - No pause between songs
+ - Mid-song resume
+ - Mid-playlist resume
+ - No-scan playlists
+ - Unlimited playlist size
+ - Autobuild playlists (ie: "all songs in this directory tree")
+ - Auto-continue play in the next directory
+ - Current folder and all sub-folder random play
+ - Full disk random play
+ - REAL random
+ - Multi song queue
+ - Faster scroll speed
+ - Archos Recorder support. Most of the hardware is the same,
+ but the display and some other things differ.
+ - More cool features with the wire remote control (including
+ controlling your Archos from your car radio (req hw mod))
+ - Support playing of other files types (ie: Ogg Vorbis support)
+ - Support for megabass switch (req hw mod)
+ - Player control via USB
+ - Memory expansion?
+ Note: Just because something is on this list, does not mean that it is
+ technically feasible. (But hey we can dream) And something not
+ being on the list does not mean it isn't a neat idea. Bring it to
+ the list.
