    Thread: LevelDB database documentation
Post: RE: LevelDB database documentation

So um… first question, I guess: does the firmware actually use the tag hash entries of track/disc numbers or can I ignore those?

Post: RE: which memory cards are working for people?

I use a Kingston SDIT/32 and it has worked well so far. I will probably upgrade to the 64 GB version of this card if I run of of space on my current one.

Wasn’t Matrix so broken that its various failure modes, like the somewhat famous “unable to decrypt” error message, became a meme?
