Backlight on with new song... ?

(1/1)

mcgirt:
Hi-

I got: ipod 5th gen... recently installed RB.... Just getting the hang of it...

What I'd like to do is have the backlight flash on when a new track is played (like winamp if you know what I mean)... I searched and found something in the mail archive but I had no idea what they were talking about... ???

thanks !

MarcGuay:
Look up "Caption Backlight" in the manual, for I believe, dear sir, that it holds the answers you seek.

mcgirt:
Yes, indeed. Thanks for the quick reply- I'm all set for work tomorrow!  ;D

Mad Cow:
Just be aware that it'll kill battery life. I got around 25 hours with it off and around 18 with it on with my gigabeat.

zajacattack:
The backlight is the biggest battery eater on players next to hard disk spinup (which is irrelevant on flash players).
