Thank you for mentioning the last build that used the old keymap, but it seems that 11-3 has an issue that stops the playing after 7 songs. (I can't figure out why but it seems to be a consistant event at the 7th song where it just stops playing) I think 10-31 is OK for anyone looking to use the old maps.. I would move to the new keys if I could get the "add to playlist shuffled" while viewing a folder in file view. (as I mentioned trying to randomly add everything using All file in the database will add my ebooks to the random playlist) Maybe this is just me, if not, I hope it helps others.

How I used to do things is not possible. If I wanted to make a random playlist of the entire music folder (or any folder) I would browse to the folder in file view, hit the bottom button, choose playlists and add randomly. I can not do this with the database. It will include my ebooks in the audio if I choose all files (I have ebooks and video on a SD card) Since I often like to just randomize the entire unit, I can't make the swap easily. (I used to play a new album, but I can't easily create lasting playlists. If I delete a song, the playlist isn't updated, so I have to manually make a playlist after editing anyway. Now I usually just listen to things randomly. Is thee a way to use the new keys and add folders to a playlist with the file browser? I am not certain but I spend ten minutes trying. It seems both the power button and the bottom button do the exact same thing in the file browser. I am trying to adapt to the new keys but I find it isn't just remapped.

You just had to remind me that the custom build can be however I want it ;) It's almost like this is the difference between (US) Republican and Democratic parties - some people believe it should be as close as possible to the OF, while others believe it should be as close as possible to other targets.

I never look at it. As of now, I can do most things without looking (or thinking) I just have no urge to change things. Having a comparison would help me, and I don't know if pausing will be as simple (I have most trouble shutting it off, that button is least tactile under my shirt and in a silicone skin) When the keymapping started, I figured the build was broken and reverted. After two times I just stopped updating. Then I read there was a new keymap and I haven't tried it yet. PS, do you know the last day of the old map? That would be the one I would use...at least for now... My issue has a lot to do with the fact I use my sansa hanging under my shirt. I never look at it.

It was just a typing error in wsp (%e), the width was to large for the screen... (Not a big problem,... maybe only false settings: But the cracking noise happens, when you try to edit some options in Crossfeed section.) Ok, the scrolling Text Bug wasn't a real Bug.
