So, a few tenths of a second won't be an appreciable wait for most folks, especially if you mute the output when collecting those few tenths of audio that you need. The user will never notice if you push a button for a 30 second skip and, under the hood, spend an extra 200 ms finding out where you are. I'll still go back to my Windows Media Player example (or any other software-based media player I can think of) -- how do they allow you to simply select where you want to be on a slider-bar underneath the real-time progress bar and go there at your request? Note that, like Tivo, this is not scanning but a direct navigation to a user-selected point in a song. -- mbonsack _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
