No rush for me. I am fairly new to using mclient. I guess I was assuming that the aim was to replicate the Slimp device as close as possible (like SoftSqueeze), but that may be an incorrect assumption and there may of course be hardware limitations.
I personally have not used the Replay button (|<) for repeat modes so I guess my vote would be to reassign it to what it is designed for and use << for fast rewind. But I am not a big user so other views may well differ. cheers, Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: "stuart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "stuart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "Dave Ansell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2007 4:29 PM Subject: Re: [Mvpmc-users] Skip on MClient > Hi Dave... > > I don't know when I'll get this in.
