Should it? I think we'll have enough room for it, especially if move some things to loadable plugins. The more tricky thing, however, is the user interface. It's difficuly designing with a user interface that is optimal for all of these four user categories. > >>To summarise, for DJ-like operations we need three new settings : > >>1.

"Silence threshold" : "-xxx dB" Number 1 is pretty simple (and not much code), but number 2 & 3 is rather difficult to implement with acceptable accuracy. It also would require lots of code and processor power. -- BjörnReceived on 2003-05-01 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
