The \setting{Theme Settings} menu offers options that you can change to
customize the visual apperance of Rockbox.

\begin{description}
\item[Browse Themes.]
  This option will display all the currently installed themes on the \dap{}, 
  press \ActionTreeEnter{} to load the chosen theme and apply it.

  A theme is a configuration file, stored in a specific directory, 
  that typically changes the WPS 
  \opt{HAVE_REMOTE_LCD}{and remote WPS}, font used and on some platforms
  additional information such as background image and text colours.

  There are a number of themes that ship with Rockbox. If none of
  these suit your needs, many more can be downloaded from 
  \opt{RECORDER_PAD}{\wikilink{WpsArchos}}%
  \opt{h1xx}{\wikilink{WpsIriverH100}}%
  \opt{h300,ipodcolor}{\wikilink{WpsIriverH300}}%
  \opt{ipodvideo}{\wikilink{WpsIpod5g}}%
  \opt{ipodnano}{\wikilink{WpsIpodNano}}%
  \opt{ipodmini}{\wikilink{WpsIpodMini}}%
  \opt{x5}{\wikilink{WpsIaudioX5}}%
  .
  Some of the downloads from this website will actually be standalone WPS files, 
  others will be full-blown themes. 

  \note{Themes do not have to be purely visual. It is quite possible to create
    a theme that switches between audio configurations for use in the car, with
    headphones and when connected to an external amplifier. See
    \reference{ref:CreateYourOwnWPS} for more details.}

\nopt{player}{

\opt{HAVE_REMOTE_LCD}{
  \item[Browse RWPS files.]

      display.
