Sean, thanks for the detailed explanation. I am aware of the technical
reasons why scanning (like on a CD player) would not be practical to
implement. And I am not expecting from SD to implement it.
However, the need for jumping forward and backward in a stream is
critical to me. I listen to lots of podcasts (downloaded separately
[1]) and audio books (e.g. language courses). And in this case I need
to skip backwards a few seconds all the time to listen to a sentence I
did not understand again. And here the FW/RW which is available is not
suitable.
So I wrote a small plugin that offers a function to skip forward or
backward a certain amount of time [2] and mapped that function to
buttons I don't need otherwise. This works great, apart from the
playtime display which gets out of sync and the inaccuracy of the
skipping, but that doesn't bother me.
Maybe this plugin is helpful for others, too.
Regards,
flip
