How to use Audiobooks and Podcasts on a rockboxed Clip Zip?

[casper^]

I've read the rockbox clip zip manual but couldn't find this info. I can see the /Audiobooks and /Podcast folders in the root of the player but copying audiobooks or podcasts to these folders is just like copying to any other folders.

When I play these audiobooks or podcasts using the File Browser, there's nothing special and nothing gets bookmarked. Am I overlooking something? Please tell me how to use the audiobooks and podcasting feature of rockbox. Is there anything I need to do in the settings?

Kind Regards,
Casper

The audiobooks or podcasts folders you see aren't created by Rockbox. Those are leftovers from the OF database refresh. Rockbox doesn't create bookmarks based on the names of folders. You'll have to set that up the way you want it. Reading about bookmarking in the manual will help.

It is a pity that Rockbox doesn't also have the autoresume feature that the original firmware has.

To have autoresume like the OF has Rockbox would have to take a big step backwards.

I'm not knocking the sandisk bookmarking feature, it does what it does very well. It's just that the Rockbox bookmarking facility is more flexible and comprehensive in my opinion.
