Short then long next/prev dir skip "feature" making current builds unusable.

(1/4) > >>

Dwyloc:
The following change now makes makes rockbox virtually unusable for listening to audio books "directory navigation in wps works as before (short then long next/prev)" as I can no longer seek backwards and forwards looking for the part of the book I wish to listen to without changing directory and loosing my place all together.  It also tends to result in skipping to the different directory if I bump the controls on my iRiver while it’s clipped to my belt.

Would it be possible to revert to the previous much more usable key mapping that prevents accidental directory skipping or have a menu option to disable directory skipping please?

Llorean:
I would suggest filing this as a bug report (call the part where short + long while trying to seek more than once causes directory skips a bug).

LinusN:
I just tried to quickly seek back and forward in a file, and I can't make it change directory by mistake.

BTW, how did you manage before we accidentally removed the feature a few days ago?

Dwyloc:
I think the problem is that I am seeking backwards and forwards in 8 hour or longer mp3’s and it is quite easy to change directory when you are trying to find the exact part of the book you want.

I used to always try and create bookmarks before every few minuets as that way when I lost place when I shipped directory by accident I could at least find the right general part of the book without searching for to long.

I am quite happy to admit that it may just be me who is being clumsy and as such will just have to learn to live with it.

JdGordon:
hmm... this is odd. ive just tested it on my h300 and i can ffwd/rewind in a track with no problems but it seems to freeze up when i try changing directories...
Linus: you sure dir change works fine on the x5? it might just be a keymap problem if it does...

Also, you shold use hold if its on your beltclip...

edit: no now its working fine... i guess its a bit tempremental
edit 2: ok, all i can guess is that it will crash if dircache isnt finished initing yet, or something... it works fine after about 30s.. before that and it will crash
