Offer new options to show elegantly your entries in any playlist/dynamic playlist viewer. This is especially important if you dual boot an iPod with Stock OS and want to sync with iTunes; with this very popular setup, file names are obfuscated which results in any Rockbox playlist viewer difficult to enjoy, and it was a long standing issue reported by several Rockbox users over the years. The only way to show the title was to open a contextual menu on each song to get infos about the selected song, which is a very long and anti-ergonomic process to understand what is on your current playlist/randomized playlist. The idea of this patch is to provide new alternatives that the user can select. I personally selected the Title & Album view which provides excellent readability.
This patch was built with performance in mind using lazy loading to load one by one the tags then cache a string and use the little cache as much as possible to make scrolling in the same area as smooth as possible. Performance remains very acceptable even on an iPod 4G with its original hard drive. Using a real compact flash with my iPod Mini 2G reduces the latency even more.
Those new options are disabled by default because they impact noticeably the scrolling performance and are less relevant if your files are decently properly named.
Unfortunately, the search feature in a playlist will need to continue to use the raw filename because reading the tags for a whole playlist is a performance disaster. This works decently while viewing just because I made a code that load those one by one as much as possible.
I focused also on testing that the opening of the playlist viewer UI remained fast, and loading one by one with lazy loading allows to get very little overhead in this regard.

This improvement brings a huge performance improvement to start a random mix of your library. Previously, the only way to do this was to increase the size of a playlist with absurd sizes number. Now it will respect the limitation but will insert random songs from the current view.
Database: Add true random songs in playlist if it is gonna exceed its maximum capacity
More context is available here : https://www.reddit.com/r/rockbox/comments/1ez0mq4/i_developped_true_full_library_shuffle_for/
Also :
- Improved layout in the DB browser
- New default max playlists capacity is now 2000 on old PortalPlayer targets to give a better user experience and not having to wait dozens of seconds while creating a playlist
- "Show insert shuffled" option is now true by default
- Add a new shortcut to play all songs shuffled in the DB browser
- Now the feature is fully optional and enabled only on targets that have more than 2MB of RAM
- Add entries about this feature in the manual to explain it to the users

The idea is that a theme or whatever could use this to provide visual
differentiation (eg "George's iPod") between multiple
otherwise-identical players..
Defaults to an empty string.
Added to the manual but there is not a way to set this through the

A set of new tags for themes that allow them to display a quickscreen item's name or value like what is displayed on the default quickscreen.
There are 8 tags in total, 2 for each direction or "item".
One type of tag displays the setting name, while the other displays the setting's value.
All tags output an "ERR" string if no valid setting is found for that item.
Quickscreen Item name tags: %QT, %QR, %QB and %QL.
Quickscreen Item value tags: %Qt, %Qr, %Qb and %Ql.

Instead of hiding this option when the current playlist
is unsaved, we can offer to save the playlist, if
necessary, before attempting to create a bookmark.
This simplifies the workflow by getting rid of steps 1
and 2 that a user currently needs to perform:
1) Open context menu, check if "Create Bookmark" option
is available
2) If not: Re-open context menu. Select Current Playlist
-> Save Current Playlist
3) Re-open context menu. Select Bookmarks
-> Create Bookmark

'sleep' can now appear in the data field of a 'time' shortcut
without being followed by a number, allowing you to stop a
running timer, or to start a new one using the default sleep

The database or playlist catalogue can now be set
as the browser that is launched when pressing
ACTION_WPS_BROWSE on the WPS, unless another browser
has more recently been opened.
Previously you'd always have to exit the File Browser
first, after the player had been restarted, which is
annoying for users who prefer the database.
The playlist catalogue has become part of the MRU
browser list, so pressing ACTION_WPS_BROWSE after
selecting a track from a playlist in the playlist
catalogue will now take you back there.
Settings menus have been slightly restructured.
- Eliminated "Set WPS Context Plugin" and "Hotkey" menus
from the General menu
- Added "What's Playing Screen" menu in Settings-General
with option for setting default browser. The "WPS Hotkey"
and "WPS Context Plugin" menu options have been moved to
this menu.
- "File Browser Hotkey" is now part of the File View menu,
which means it is accessible from the browser's context
menu as well.
Overview of resulting menu structure in Settings->General:
What's Playing Screen
Default Browser
WPS Hotkey
Set WPS Context Plugin
File View
(...)
File Browser Hotkey

The directory cache and the database's Load to RAM feature
each result in a much better user experience.
But, when both features are enabled at the same time, it
can take a very long time on older players - easily several
minutes for larger libraries - until all of the database's
dircache references have been updated.
Include a 'Quick' option that causes the database to ignore
dircache references which can *significantly* reduce disk
activity after booting.

EQ settings are actually an array of 3 ints. I added a skin parameter
token that allows specifying which array element to use.
So instead of this now-incorrect syntax:
%St(0,0,-,-,image,eqbar.bmp,vertical,setting,eq band 1 gain)
You would use:
%St(0,0,-,-,image,eqbar.bmp,vertical,soffset,2,setting,eq peak filter 1)
(the 'gain' is the third element in the eq setting array, thus soffset 2)

The "Reload After Saving" setting was added in
g3347 (4f83e66) to solve FS#13287, by allowing
you to bookmark a modified playlist after saving,
without having to manually reload it first.
Since the rewrite of playlist_save in g5192
(90e3571), a modified playlist doesn't have to be
reloaded anymore in order to be bookmarked after
it's been saved, unless it contains queued tracks.
To cover the remaining use cases of the previously
available option, Rockbox will now offer to remove
any queued tracks from a playlist when saving it.

After launch, PictureFlow always goes to the currently playing
album, or to a selected album, if applicable. Which is probably
a useful default, but not always wanted. You can now get back
to the album you were looking at when PictureFlow was last
closed, or when the sorting was last changed.
