Power off when not idle

<< < (2/2)

sandwich600:
Fair enough. I just thought of it when I was on holiday and accidentally flattened the battery with no recharge point available.  Annoying, but it probably won' t happen again.

Llorean:
The trick is, if you're intentionally using it, it'll turn off the player when you don't want it to. If you turn it off, then you need to remember to turn it back on for the other cases. If you can remember to turn it on, you could also just use the sleep timer.

There are a few patches that deal with persistent sleep timers.

This one looks promising.

I just patched a clip+ release r29823M-110511 with this patch and it works well. The sleep timer can be persistently enabled via the settings menu.

Settings -> General -> System -> Sleep timer

I also disabled the pitch key-click in this build.

Thanks for this!!  Much appreciated and saved me from re-compiling myself.
Looking forward to seeing one of these patches in an upcoming release.
