I agree, I used the FF/REW for the first time and was elated. Philip, the old system was never consistent. Every once in a while it would work, but generally I would hold FF, it would go to 2x, then hold FF again, it would go to 4x, then I'd push play, and it would restart the song, or even worse, it would start playing as if it never engaged the transport. I got so sick of trying to use it, I just stopped using. I probably haven't used it in over a year. It certainly wasn't as reliable as a DVD player with the same functionality. The new version has been used at least 10 time so far with only positive results.
I also don't understand how that horrible stuttering audio could help you determine the position of the audio, especially in a long podcast. I couldn't intelligibly discern what was happening with music that I was very familiar with. The lack of audio cuing is standard with all computer based players, so perhaps most are just used to it now. I don't listen to podcasts that much, but it stinks you lost some functionality. Perhaps, to your point, if it would have been possible, it would have been nice to have the option of one or the other. -- verbatone ------------------------------------------------------------------------ verbatone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3556 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=52616 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
