one of last things im REALLY missing...

[muesli]

is audible seeking in ie mp3s...could be that done pleaaaaaaaaaaase

[Llorean]

The forums are not the place for feature requests.

[dunno]

as an option please,

Audible seeking wrecks the listening experience, it's unpleasant white noise to me.

what drugs are you using?   sounds interesting...audible seeking is meant to find a position in a song and NOT meant to enjoy anything...

@Llorean so what place is the place to be?

[LinusN]

The feature request tracker, of course. And BTW, there is already a request for audible seeking in there.

I have an alternative idea if it's hard to implement audible seeking:

While seeking the audio don't stop, but instead gets "dimmed" while seeking.
When you release the button playback skips to the new position.
This way you don't have to "lose contact" with the music while seeking.

Maybe not that important...

If I understand it correctly you are suggesting something completely different. You propose that the playback would continue while you are selecting a position to seek to?

Anyway it is a good idea and I would welcome it as an option. I was always wondering why the playback stops when you start seeking although it could continue to play until you actually seek to a new position by releasing the button used for seeking.

with crossfade settings this can result in a nice in-track crossfade just like the old winamp plugin did.

[muesli]

btw are any updates available? audible seeking is really lovely and badly missing

[Cassandra]

People have been wanting audible seeking in Rockbox since the dawn of time, it's just never been a priority for the core developers.  As such, if it's going to happen, somebody is almost certtainly going to have to write a patch.

Audible seeking is nice, but I can't say I care enough to actually work on it myself.  Sorry.

well...this sux a lot  

[LinusN]

Indeed. But it apparently doesn't suck enough for a programmer to step forward and implement it.

You had best learn how to program then, rather than complain that others haven't used their free time in exactly the way you would like.

that answer was predictable. its often used but doesnt help since majority of people has not the capability to code any single line...

sometimes i have the feeling developers just develop to improve the system (which is great of course) but fail to implement features which are strongly asked (like this e.g.)

anyway...i dont want to complain. im more than happy with rockbox. keep up great work, guys!

Almost anyone can learn to code if they spend enough time and effort on it...

Exactly! That is tha whole point of developing in your free time, you do what  _you_  want.

anyway...i dont want to complain. im more than happy with rockbox. keep up great work, guys!

Good to hear.
