Is it possible to adjust length of stop/pause fade?
ryran:
This is actually something that I used to think about back in the day. I eventually just disabled it. Only recently started using it again, since I got a new player and it's the default setting. Was thinking about it again today (before I read this) for the first time in a while: how I like the fade, but find myself waiting too long to see if I've actually paused or stopped the music.
I've got some basic familiarity playing around with Rockbox's svn tree (patching, compiling, etc), but don't actually know C. Looking at the code, I don't see anything so simple as a #ms value. Darn. ;)
pondlife:
It would probably be simple to change the current "Fade On Pause/Stop" option to a "Fade Length On Pause/Stop" (0-2 seconds in 0.1 increments?). Only problem would be that people would lose their existing setting, and go back to the default.
I'll knock this up if anyone would be interested (and nobody would object to it in SVN). Or is this just being too picky and bloating?

linuxstb:
Reading through this thread, it seems that the request is really just to shorten the fade time, so why not simply just do that?
I agree with the comments that it's too long, which is why I disable it.
Or does anyone actually like the current delay?
Llorean:
I think it's too long, but I'm not sure a single preset shortened one would be suitable for everyone. Surely there are some people who'd merely like to "soften" the sharp cutoff of an instant stop (0.1-0.2s) while others might want it to actually seem to fade away a little gradually.
I'd say 0.1s increments from 0s-0.5s or maybe 0s-1s make sense to me.
yapper:
I too think the current fade is slightly on the long side.
On a related point, is there any reason (other than lack of code), why the same fade isn't used in situations like seek start/stop, and the resume after headphone insertion?
