changes to the Gigabeat button mappings

(1/5) > >>

markun:
I changed the button mappings yesterday and basically switched POWER and A to prevent accidental shutdown when holding POWER to do a key combo (for doing a pagedown for example: POWER+DOWN).

Now I'm not so sure it was the best solution. Someone suggested we could also fix it by making A the shutdown button and leaving the layout as it was before, but I though it was a bit weird because that's what you would expect from the POWER button (because of the icon on the button)

So, what are your opinions on it?

Llorean:
I think the idea to make one button turn it on (the button labelled "Power" on the unit) and a different button turn it off is incredibly counterintuitive.

People who don't like the possibility of their button maps being changed shouldn't use pre-release software.

I think he has something.

POWER
Turn On - Hold
Menu

A Button
Mute and move to menu
Turn Off - Hold

 Thank you Thank you Thank you
I was so annoyed by the accidental shut-down, this is much better.
My biggest problem was with moving the cursor in the text-editor, I'm very thankful

copskid44:
what! ive never accidentally shut my gigabeat down! I maybe am stubborn but I still hate it.

Could someone make a patch to where it changes it back so I dont have to change the code every time i update?
