I've so far never used the fwd/rew functionality, but I regularly choose to skip a track when something bad comes up in a random playlist. Skipping track should be easy to access.
I think the main issues here is really that the remote misses some buttons. Most remote controls for CD and DVD players have separate buttons for fwd/rev and next/prev track, the SB uses the same buttons which causes the user interface to be a bit strange. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41235 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
