Default Rockbox v.iPod Video

Trying to figure out Rockbox on my ipod. Its cool so far, but not the playlists.
I added some songs to the dynamic playlist and I go into playlists and I try to save it. It goes to the keyboard. I have tried changing the name, but I don't know how to save it. I tried hitting the menu button, select, next, previous and play button. I can't figure out how it saves.

I think I'll try reformatting my ipod to get the apple os off of it.

I've already looked through there. It just says use the virtual keyboard and save it.
I found that the Play button saves it and exits, but it doesn't actually save.

Why replacing it? It allows me to do more things. I like skinning it. Its something to play with. I like the extra features.

downloaded it last week but have yet to install it...I'm still debating on whether or not it's worth using.
