Additional Home button functionality on Sansa Clip

<< < (2/4) > >>

Chronon:
I think "return to WPS" is a useful and desirable action to have available.  Since the combination that's used for the Clip v1 is already taken, maybe Home + Play would be a good option.  I don't have any objection to Home doing a 3-way toggle, but the behavior would be a little more uniform if the action was mapped to a distinct button combination.

Llorean:
"Home" being a three way toggle would be problematic because "go to WPS" is also "resume playback" and if it were a three way toggle, it could easily trigger accidental resumes of playback if you're using it for its current functionality.

Chronon:
True.  I think Home+Play might be the cleanest option if it's free.  I haven't checked out the Clip+ button map in the source yet.

Llorean:
"Home + Play" might make a lot of sense, since "Play" is what would be used for that functionality if the player had better list navigation options.

Another idea that has been tossed around has been to use the volume buttons on the Clip (I assume the Clip+ has them too, don't know) for list navigation (but still be volume in the WPS) so that it frees up the top and bottom buttons in the circular area for more traditional uses. But, as can be seen, that idea wasn't chosen.

Timar:
Home + Play would be fine too and make sense. So let's ask the developers to implement it that way for the Clip+. Developers? ;D
