Bugzilla – Bug 7490
Now playing time does not handle negative rate (scan backwards)
Last modified: 2008-07-01 10:20:32 UTC
From Plauer:getTrackElapsed() if self.trackCorrection <= 0 then return tonumber(self.trackTime), tonumber(self.trackDuration) else local trackElapsed = self.trackTime + self.trackCorrection return tonumber(trackElapsed), tonumber(self.trackDuration) end I do not understand why the test is required. Surely this correction shoudl always be applied. (and, for some reason, the display gets completely messed up on the desktop app when rate < 0)
this is a 7.1 bug
Alan, is this still an issue?
Not really, since no supplied UI with 7.1 has the ability to invoke reverse-direction audio. I plan to remove the capability entirely for 7.2. The facility is still there (in 7.1) via the CLI and users could remap IR buttons to that functionality. Also, disabling the player-UI SongScanner plugin would expose this functionality.
I think this one is a "WONTFIX". Alan, reopen and target for 7.2 if that's in error.
No, that is fine. With 7.2 (new-streaming) there is no more 'rate'. I have left it in the status message just to keep Jive (and other UIs) happy but it is alway 1.
