timestretching is in?
sqgl:
Thanks for the prompt response.
I already looked at v3.3 manual before I posted, searching the PDF for pitch and for tempo and timestrech. It says nothing about the new pitch feature (ie tempo change without pitch change).
And it says to access the pitch screen you press PLAY + SELECT which is an impossile combination (instead of saying press context button while playing). And when I do get to the pitchsceen on my Sansa it looks the same as before.
The manual is one of the best I have seen but it seems this one feature has been overlooked.
Chronon:
Actually, it is also listed under "The WPS Context Menu". I notice the key combination you mention is listed in the WPS Key Controls table. I'm not too sure what you mean by it being an impossible combination (does it trigger some other unwanted action?).
If you have ideas about how to describe it more clearly you are welcome to submit a patch for the manual -- either a proper patch of the LaTeX source or simply plain text describing the proposed changes.

The combination works if you press and hold Select first before pressing Play (it's also called "Select + Play") but of course you can also access the pitch screen through the context menu. I don't know at the moment how involved it would be to make it work when pressing Play first.

So you are running the 3.3 release? That is an important information here as timestretch was added right after the release. Install a current build, carefully read the pitchscreen section in a "daily manual" from the site and it will work. As mentioned I tried myself before responding and it works for me on my c250 running r21718, so not even the newest.

Sorry I quoted it the wrong way around but I probably did try it your way too; it turns out Play must be pressed very *soon* after Select or else nothing happens (eg one second is too long). A glitch or unavoidable?

The current version *is* v3.3. On the page http://www.rockbox.org/download/byhand.cgi I selected the link: http://download.rockbox.org/release/3.3/rockbox-sansac200-3.3.zip
You can see just from the above URL that v3.3 is the latest online for the Sansa c250. I am getting closer and closer to the holy grail... almost there... with your help.
yapper:
There are releases (e.g. 3.3) and current builds. Current builds are updated much more frequently than releases. See the "Current Build" link, or in Rockbox Utility select "Current build".
