Description Michael Wagner 2006-02-19 14:57:05 UTC

This enhancement asks for the ability to play a song backwards.

It is requested as an enhancement request separate from bu 2749, pitch support, 
because of a suggestion made by KDF in that enhancement request.

It was pointed out that this might only be possible with some format types,
since some decompression algorithms are non-trivial to run in the opposite
direction. If this is correct, playing backwards may have to be limited to
certain types. Likely this is acceptable to most users.

And it can't be done with live streams.

This enhancement request was placed against SB2/3 but I expect the likely implementation would be code in the server to reverse the stream, in which case, SB1s and SLiMP3s could also acquire this feature.

This is going to have to happen in slimserver.

Comment 3 Blackketter Dean 2006-04-21 21:07:48 UTC

another thought, it might make for an excellent plugin.

Dean doesn't work here any more :)

Unassigned bugs cannot have a priority.
