Chapter 7. Playback Settings 49

7.3 Play Selected First

This setting controls what happens when you select a le for playback while shue mode is on. If the Play Selected First setting is Yes, the le you selected will be played rst. If this setting is No, a random le in the directory will be played rst.

7.4 Fast-Forward/Rewind

These settings control the speed and acceleration during fast forward and rewind. The setting FF/RW Min Step controls the initial speed and FF/RW Accel controls the acceleration.

7.5 Anti-Skip Buer

This setting controls how early Rockbox starts relling the music buer from the hard drive when playing. A longer Anti-Skip Buer helps prevent skips in music playback if Rockbox has trouble reading from the disk. This can happen if the player is knocked, shaken or jogged heavily while Rockbox is trying to read the hard drive.

The anti-skip buer can be set to various values between 5 seconds and 10 minutes.

Note: Having a large anti-skip buer tends to use more power, and may reduce your b battery life. It is recommended to always use the lowest possible setting that allows correct and continuous playback.

7.6 Fade on Stop/Pause

Enables and disables a fade eect when you pause or stop playing a song. If the Fade on Stop/Pause option is set to Yes, your music will fade out when you stop or pause playback, and fade in when you resume playback.

7.7 Party Mode

Enables unstoppable music playback. When new songs are selected, they are queued at the end of the current dynamic playlist instead of being played immediately. Pausing and stopping playback is disabled as well as skipping songs and launching plugins.

7.8 Crossfade

This setting enables a cross-fader. At the end of a song, the song will fade out as the next song fades in, creating a smooth transition between songs. The crossfade setting is particularly eective when the player is set on shue.

Options for crossfade settings are:
