15 seconds is a fair bit of a song. I see it as easy that a user may decide to skip 10 songs in a row after hearing less than 15 seconds of each song. I have done it numerous times :) The default of 10 songs and 15 seconds tripped up another user in this thread following nightlys in just a few days of me bringing up the issue. Could you imagine how many users it will trip up in a stable? I'm open for ideas but I think 15 seconds is excessive delay. I would think 5 seconds would be plenty to buffer adequately for any machines that should be considered to run SBS 7.6. Plus the 5 second delay before random song generation should not be reset if a song change occurs. Im fine for a slight delay for things to settle for real time critical tasks, but those operation due after 5 seconds must complete regardless and cant be postponed indefinitely. Eg 1)play Song 1 2)5 second delay timer triggered 3)skip song immediately 4)song 2 plays 5)check for existing timer (do not reset timer :)) 6)additional timer not required as existing timer is still waiting 7)original timer expires and delayed code is executed. -- bits ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bits's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13375 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85157 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
