Hi,
As this a MP configuration issue I figured the System Spec wouldn't be required and I could save some time by not writing it all out again. My bug/feature request/issue is with the "Playback Settings for Bass Player":
1. Usability
Selecting cross fade and bufferring to 10ms isn't necessary - can't we just do it in 0.5s increments...seems so fiddly now
2. Cross Fade
The cross fade feature is GREAT when SKIPPING a track BUT I have found it awful when listening to a synchronis set of mp3 files (e.g an album) where by default one song blends to another - here the feature mangles the audio and the track transistions are painful. Worse still when you are listening to a CD (one of those round silvery things) the impact is even worse.
Could we:
1. Set the desired cross fade settings in the config and apply these by DEFAULT only to track skips; then
2. Provide an option in the My Music menu to manually turn on cross fade (with a button like the "TV on" one).
Using #2 the feature is active for all tracks being played. The setting can be stateful within MP so that it is remembered for the next session.
When I disable the cross fade my music plays normally, but the very refined method of track skipping is also lost which is a pity as it is very slick.
