Date: Sat, 7 Jan 2006 10:29:52 -0600 New version posted to patch tracker with both feature sets. The mode is activated by the single button press, once activated, as long as either marker remains set, the dual button presses are active to move the markers. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1399036&group_id=44306&atid=439120 Brandon On Sat, 01/07/06 at 09:56:28 -0600, Brandon Low wrote: > Hmm, a very good point -- would perhaps enabling the two button clicks > to move markers whenever the A marker is already set be sufficient? > > Brandon > > On Sat, 01/07/06 at 10:46:31 -0500, Ray Lambert wrote: > > Brandon Low wrote: > > > > >Hey, I've just gotten AB repeat to work on the iRiver H340 platform > > >(really not much to it, I was able to use the existing code with minor > > >modifications). > > > > > >The existing AB repeat mode is enabled by a repeat mode option.
