[bcab] Re: Speak on: What a pity!

Isaac,

That's why I didn't find it, you have to press enter on a folder! I'm sorry,
I think I may well have to give it 10 out of 10 in that case! After what
you've just said, I can see my CD's never seeing the light of day again once
they are digitised! 
Does
It would be even stronger if you could do the same thing from an individual
track, and if it worked from internet directories too, so you could go
straight from one preset to the next in Radio Time, for instance that way
too!

Hi Dave

Oh 9.5 that's not bad I hope I got that when I was learning English <smile>

You can do all these things as follows:

If you play a playlist (file extensions such as '.m3u' 'pls' and 'wpl' just
press the Up and Down arrow keys to go to a next or previous track.
(Press the Right and Left arrows will take you between navigation units so
you can skip also 5 Minutes, 1 minute 15 seconds and 5 seconds - the same
applies to all files audio or text stored on your computer such as podcasts
or plain text Depending on the media it will remember where you left off and
you can make as many bookmarks as you like (this is disabled deliberately in
Music as people told me that they want to always go back to the top of their
playlist - you can shuffle, sort  the tracks, disable speech see under the
'Play' sub-menu.    
The same principle (navigating the collection )applies to all collections;
article in a newspapers, podcasts episodes in a feed, Daisy books etc.

You don't have to have playlists to listen to your music anymore.  When you
navigate the SpeakOn library in the Music category you will hear 'playable'
directory.  Just press Enter on it; all the tracks under this folder
(directory) and sub folders are grouped automatically into a temporary
playlist (which you can save later if you wish).  Simply move between tracks
using the Up and Down arrow keys - simple I think.

The tracks (or any item in the collection) will advance automatically when
one item finishes (track in the case of music).

So everything you raised is there;  did I addressed your comments?
Will you give SpeakOn now 10 out of 10?

Regards
Isaac

Hi, well, I must say, I give this about 9.5 out of 10! The pity is I can't
quite give it 10 out of 10. There still isn't a single keystroke I can find
for next track, previous track, etc, and you still can't get it to
automatically play the next thing in your collection! The same principle
would be brilliant throught the program, not just in media centre! Seems
like an easy thing to implement too! Still, at least I can use it to play
music again now, I just think I'll stick to Itunes for now!

Well done on the update though

Cheers
Dave
