-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 * [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Tue, 24 Aug 1999 | the buffer is between 5-10 seconds. This sounds bassackwards to me; | wouldn't the full 10 seconds of memory offer longer battery life than | just, say, 5? Nope. The power consumed by the player mechanism is the same, regardless of the size of the buffer. The power consumed by the buffer is in addition to that; the larger the buffer, the more power is required to maintain it. | Also, I wonder how it determines the amount of time (it specifically | says "5-10 seconds of sound information is stored in memory" when on) | when the auto power save feature is on? My guess is a bit of heuristic guesswork, based on how much buffer it needs. | playing mono (and mono/stereo mix) discs in my two Sony units... Are | there any MD units out there that *won't* play mono discs? Dunnow. I've never tried it. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v0.9.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE3wvawgl+vIlSVSNkRAj44AKCkrW89RERSyjzElQ6RD+ehZ324VQCdHsFN qQWPxLxkqDH5fFka5nVaoyw= =XQFk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Rat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> \ Happy Fun Ball contains a liquid core, Minion of Nathan - Nathan says Hi! \ which, if exposed due to rupture, should PGP Key: at a key server near you! \ not be touched, inhaled, or looked at. ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
