What exactly is the problem? Pressing the skip button will skip to the next song, which may or may not be partially in the buffer. If the start isn't in the buffer then you wait while it _begins_ to fill the buffer sufficiently to allow playback. Skipping twice or more in quick succession guarantees that you'll wait. Depends on your network speed, but on mine the wait is never more than 1-2 seconds. Is that what you're calling a problem? -- JJZolx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82026 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
