CVS 030410-1740 (just built)

2 Bugs (probably related):

1. Skip ahead bug:

To replicate:

Start a playlist (normal or shuffled mode).
Allow first song to start playing.
Press FF twice in fairly rapid succession (e.g. to
    skip TWO songs, yes I was playing with the mp3
    loading problem mentioned earlier!)
Watch and listen to what happens:
    Song 3 in playlist begins to play (it DID skip!)
    "End of Song List" is displayed
    WPS goes back to directory screen
    Play indicator goes to "Stop"

Verified with 5 rapid presses; skips quickly to song 5.
Verified with Rew as well.
Must press "Off" (AJBR20) to stop song.

Workaround is to wait until song is loaded before
skipping to next.

2. Skip while Paused bug:

Start a playlist.
Let first song begin playing.
Press "Pause"
Press FFwd to skip to next.
AJBR skips to next and WPS updates with new song BUT
    Unit begins playing next song (unlike before) and
    Pause icon remains on status line.

Much prefer it skip and remain paused! Pressing "Pause"
again causes the unit to briefly pause and then restart

Workaround is don't skip while paused!

The reason I built this one (was on 3/19 build) was to
get the "stop playing when FFWD is pressed" fix.

I like the fix (it'd be nice if it would fade, but hey!)
And I have to say I LOVE RockBox!

Thanks,
Tom
