Bugzilla – Bug 3451
During data entry, move cursor after some timeout
Last modified: 2008-12-18 11:38:58 UTC
I see this during password entry - not sure if it works like this everywhere in the setup... Entering two adjacent characters located on the same key is made difficult by the fact that the cursor never moves to the right. Entering the next characters on a different key is quick because the cursor automatically moves right when a new key is pressed. But entering two or more characters on the same key requires the user to press the right-arrow first. This can make entering long, random passwords even more tedious than it already is.
This bug is fixed in firmware 56. It is currently undergoing internal testing. You will be notified again when it is made part of a nightly release.
I apologize; I've been slow in adding this notification to some of the bugs. Please ignore it if you've already tried the new firmware. This bug fix is now available in the nightly Slimserver release. The release is available from: http://www.slimdevices.com/dev_nightly.html If you prefer to wait for the next official release, you will be notified when it occurs. You'll need to install the new version of Slimserver, and then force your Squeezebox to upgrade its firmware by holding down the 'Brightness' button on the remote control until the firmware upgrade process begins. If you are still experiencing this problem after upgrading your affected players to the new firmware, please reopen the bug.
