Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2020 15:54:40 -0400 I've had the fancier Sansas that used a touchscreen. They break and you can't control them by touch in the dark. Currently, I have a sansa clip zip 4GB with a 32GB microsd card. All buttons. I'd say that almost as valuable as the player is the setup. I've got a configuration file designed for my use of listening to podcasts and audiobooks. Rockbox lets you use a file name fixed.cfg that will run everytime you turn on the player. That way if you aren't happy with where you are in the menus, you just shut off the player and turn it back on and it runs the configuration file. I use that often. My file has automatic shut off after an hour with creation of a bookmark and starts up 5 seconds before I shut it off. The manual explains what you can do with a config file. There's an amazing amount of customization possible. You'll probably need someone sighted to set it up. Connect the player to a computer and create a file called fixed.cfg in the .rockbox folder that you edit following what the config pages at the end of the manual allow..I haven't changed mine for years. I also shut off the database so that startup takes 5 to 10 seconds.
