Z1 Unable to fast forward/rewind music

I wondered if anyone could help me with this. Within the Sony Walkman app the function 'Press and hold' to fast forward or rewind doesnt work. When you use this feature on my phone it just skips tracks on release of the button regardless of the length of time the button is held down. Is anyone else having this issue or is it just me? Cant find any similar issues searching round the web. Thanks in advance

Are you in the overview screen where you just have a small song bar at the bottom of the screen and the screen is showing your other albums, if yes, than you can't fast forward or rewind. Press on the track that your are listening to, to reach the screen that is showing the cover art of the song and some sort of bigger track controls. On this screen you should be able to fast forward and rewind the song.

N91 new firmware, unable to fast forward or rewind

I just upgraded my Nokia N91 to the new 2.00.052 firmware and run into a problem. After the upgrade, I can no longer fast forward, rewind or pause tracks encoded in eAAC+ format. If I do attempt to do any of the above actions, the song pauses and just won't unpause. However, the problem doesn't occur with songs encoded in mp3 format.
I have tried formatting the hard drive and erasing the phone memory and updating the firmware again, but to no avail. I have been using the latest versions of PC Suite and Nokia Software updater.
This is pretty annoying, as these are fundemental operations that one might want to do when playing a song. And I love the eAAC+ format, don't want to go back to mp3.
Does anyone have any suggestions at all?
Cheers

Well, I don't use eAAC+ songs that much, but I can confirm that I have the same problem
It only plays the song from the begining.
640K Should be enough for everybody

Cannot fast forward in music video mode. How can I accomplish this

Cannot fast forward in music video mode. How can I accomplish this. Cannot rewind either. Am I missing something? If I change the Music Video to TV Show or Movie can both rewind or fast forward. For now all concert videos are in Movies, which might be the right place for them, but kinda weird Itunes does this.

I am by no mean an expert and I'm sure there are easier ways to accomplish this... however one way is to do something like this:
-Use selection tool to select all blue background, soften the edges of the selection then delete the selection.
-Here you will have a white background and dull looking image with not the greatest edges.
-Zoom waaaay in and use a softer eraser brush on the edges.
-Use various sharpening, brightening, white levels adjustments to make your image prettier.
-Pay attention to the diamond, select the diamond with a selector tool and sharpen, etc. Consider adding a layer to add additional detail to just the diamond.
-Consider using the clone stamp to smooth out any markings on the silver tone band.

MSI-256 - Fast Forward/Rewind Issue...

Folks, I'm using the MSI Mega Stick 256 with the latest firmware.
All is cool, except for the fast forward/rewind function. I'm listening to the .Net Rocks radio show. The show is long - up to two hours. So I need to fast forward to get to where I was last at. But when I do it moves slowly forward or backward for a minute before hitting turbo mode jumping 2 minutes for each tick. The problem is it is too slow for the first minute and way too fast fast after that. I often am jumping forward and backwards several times to get to where I want to be.
It really need to use a logarithmic speed increase so that I can judge better when to stop fast forwarding.
That's my #1 issue.
Also it would be nice to have it resume playing from the point in the last file it was playing. And it would be nice to see on screen the current time display.
Cheers!

Here's a thing:
unfortunately, it's not the iPod touch/iPhone 2.0 software that is causing this... It's actually the video encoding
iPod touch/iPhone 2.0 has new playback system that is causing a video encoded with 3rd party encoding software (not the one from Apple, but other software's iPod compatible h.264 encoding system such as iSquint) to go haywire when fastfowarding or rewinding a video....
I had issues with some of my home movies, encoded via iSquint, playing on my iPod after upgrading to 2.0, but after re-encoding it with Quicktime Pro, (yes, I converted the ORIGINAL file to h.264 via Quicktime Pro) all my video playback smoothley.
So, it's not a software issue, it's the video encoding issue....

How to achieve Fast-forward/rewind functions when using VideoDisplay

I use "VideoDisplay" instance for progressive download of
videoes from a server. Is anyone know how to add
fast-forward/rewind functions using Actionscript 3 with
VideoDisplay object?
or is there anyway to do it when playing videoes through
progressive download?
Thanks in advance.

Matt,
Thank you very much for your help. The thread is quite
interesting.
I can only make the video jumping forward/backward at the
step of 10 seconds by changing VideoDisplay's "playheadTime"
property. When I set the step down to 1 second,
the video is "frozing", and the playheadTime is going 1
second forward/backward, then return back to where it is, and going
1 second forward/backward, then return back to wheare it is again,
and repeats forever.
For the FLVPlayback class, it is not available in Flex
builder 3, why?
Thanks again,
Regards,
Fan

Fast Forward / Rewind button dead

I just bought my nano less than 24 hours ago, and I can no longer use my fast forward / rewind buttons.
Yes, I know the other way of fast forwarding/rewinding, but that's not the point.
Any suggestions? Or should I just take it back to the store for an even exchange / refund if possible

A good first step in many problems of this nature would be a soft reset by holding the select and menu button till it rebouts and than if no change after that to restore with the ipod updater. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60944 http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/tutorial/ipgettingstartedt16.html

Use of remote to fast forward/rewind

I've got movies that I've converted from DVD's and when I play them I want to fast forward rewind, but the behavior of the remote is strange. It seems it I hit it once, I go to the next chapter, if I hold it down it fast forwards, then drops back to normal speed. I can't find any documentation on how this is supposed to work. Can someone tell me where to find some better documentation?

Welcome to the  Discussion forums.
If you press and release 'advance' while playing, the movie will advance to the next chapter.
If the movie isn't chaptered this action will advance it 1/10th (or is it 1/20th) of the movies duration.
If you press and release 'advance' while paused, the movie will advance 10 seconds.
If you press advance and hold, the movie will fast forward.
If you press advance and hold, even longer the movie will fast forward even faster.
There are 3 fast forward speeds.
These rules apply to rewind as well.
Note however that the movie needs to have loaded enough to jump to the appropriate places, if it hasn't there may well be a delay while it loads the appropriate chapter or whatever. If you keep pressing while it is loading the appropriate segment you may well confuse it and yourself. Try to let the blue line reach the end before giving the next command.
Movies with lots of chapters respond much better to these commands since the actions are pretty much dependant on loading chapters.
You may find that using FF and RW are not as responsive immediately after starting a movie, but work really well after you have watched it for a while, how much depends on how long the chapters are, how good streaming is and how long you have been watching.
Movies without chapters aren't a problem, movies with many chapters are better, movies with one chapter are an absolute nightmare.
Hope this helps.

IPhone iPod fast forward/rewind scrollbar missing

I have lost the fast forward/rewind scrollbar in my iPod. It was there yesterday, and I don't remember changing any settings that may have altered this. How can restore the fast forward/rewind scrollbar in my iPod so that I can fast forward/rewind the tracks I am listening too?

Just tap center of the screen to make the scrollbar (and lyrics, when added) re-appear.

E90: Music player - Can I fast forward/rewind with...

Is it possible to fast forward or rewind within a single track?
I know I can skip back to the start but if I have a 20 minute audio book and I miss something 15 minutes in, can I rewind back 60 seconds (or so)?
If so, how? It's not obvious to me.
...Lyall

In the music player you have the controls to skip to next track if you quickly press the keys (up or down) If you hold the key then it skips through.
However this works for MP£ I don't recall it working for AAC format. I could be wrong, but I know not all formats suppport it.

Unable to fast forward podcasts

Hi everyone,
I have been having problems with trying to fast forward podcasts. On the occasion that I have to stop my podcast halfway through, I am sometimes unable to start at the point where I start. I've tried fast forward to the point where I've stopped but am not able to do so.
Can someone please tell me if we can actually fast forward podcasts? I've tried the 5R's and it still doesn't. I vague recall being able to do so in the past.
Please advise. Thank you in advance.

I have the same problem as well. Whenever I want to fast forward certain podcasts they restart from the beginning. On my other Ipod the same podcast can be fast forwarded fine. I have tried a reset which oes not help. The hidden diagnostic commands indiciate that everything is ok. Does anyone have any answers?

Unable to Fast Forward Through A Song Without It Restarting the Song

Hello,
I have a new 5th generation 80gb ipod. If I attempt to fast forward through a song, it moves the clock ahead, but then restarts the song. The same also occurs if I try to rewind back in during a song. At first, I thought it was a touch issue, but it is not.
Also, when a song starts to play, the clock clicks off 3 or 4 seconds, then starts back at 0:00, but the song keeps playing normally. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Greg

sounds like a bug on the new ipods to me

Fast forward / rewind ?

Guys am on Windows 7 and latest upgrade of Spotify - have the player controls gone or am I being stoopid ? It looks like I can only play or pause or move on a track by control and left / right cursor keys - but there is no play controls window any more to fast forward or rewind pause etc - any advice ? Chips xx

exactly the same here, i want to skip back some seconds not the whole song..i found something inside the spotify app that works for me. i'm on a mac but maybe it'll work in a similar way on windows: just like in the VLC i tried cmd+alt+left arrow and cmd+shift+left arrow the cmd+shift+left arrow worked. it jumps back 4-5 seconds. if they are cross-platform consistent, then ctrl+shift+left arrow might work in windows. let me know!
cheers, sam
