Even a 200 file limit can be very high in size, considering the maximum size of each path is 260 bytes. That's 52k, if each file takes up the maximum path size. If the games were eliminated, I guess you were reduce it by a few K. The ideal solution would be to get rid of the limit altogether through some ingenious solution. My question is how much a 400 file limit would affect the buffer? Seems like taking 52k off of the buffer wouldn't up the battery consumption all that much, and it would get rid of the quabbling over this, at least temporarily :) -Justin --- Guy Devos <vosg_at_skynet.be> wrote: > Robert, > > > I'd personally say it's better to list all the files in the wrong order > than > > to just list the first 200, since the order will still be wrong like that > > anyway. > > I can't program in C, so I was wondering how the original Archos firmware > handles this.
