Stopping after each track

(1/3) > >>

RBUser:
How do I make the player stop after each track? In other words, how do I turn off auto advance? I found a "Prevent Track Skipping" feature in the docs, but most likely it is meant for other purposes despite it's name.

Llorean:
There may be a "pause after each track" feature. I know it's been discussed in the past, but I'm not sure if it's ever been implemented. Or you could just play a single track, in which case it'll stop afterward as long as repeat isn't on.

I don't get the "despite its name" comment, though. Normal playback doesn't involve any "skipping" so "prevent track skipping" doesn't seem very misleading at all.

RBUser:
My other player (Cowon J3) supports playing one track at a time while preserving the playing order. In Creative Zen V Plus, which I owned before, there was a sleep timer (separate from idle timer). Any of these features can help turn off the player when you doze off. I guess it is not uncommon for a person to listen to his portable player in bed. There should be a solution in Rockbox, that can prevent battery depletion in such situations.

(To close the side topic about "Prevent track skipping", it's a perfectly suitable name. It was just me, who misread it as "Prevent track changing".)

We have a sleep timer.  See '8.6.3  Sleep Timer' in the manual.

Thanks for answering, but I can't find it on my SansaClip+, RockBox version 3.10. Most probably it's not supported for this player. But what about the simplest solution: add an option for continuous/one-track play. Isn't it a good feature which is easy to implement?
