Chapter 7. Playback Settings
65
7.3. Play Selected First
This setting controls what happens when you select a file for playback while shuffle mode
is on. If the
Play Selected First
setting is
Yes
, the file you selected will be played
first. If this setting is
No
, a random file in the directory will be played first.
7.4. Fast-Forward/Rewind
These settings control the speed and acceleration during fast forward and rewind. The
setting
FF/RW Min Step
controls the initial speed and
FF/RW Accel
controls the
acceleration.
7.5. Fade on Stop/Pause
Enables and disables a fade effect when you pause or stop playing a song. If the Fade
on Stop/Pause option is set to
Yes
, your music will fade out when you stop or pause
playback, and fade in when you resume playback.
7.6. Party Mode
Enables unstoppable music playback. When new songs are selected, they are queued at
the end of the current dynamic playlist instead of being played immediately. Pausing
and stopping playback is disabled as well as skipping songs and launching plugins.
7.7. Crossfade
This section controls the behavior of the crossfader. The crossfader, when enabled,
smoothly fades one track into the next. This can occur in two situations: an automatic
track change or a manual track skip. An automatic track change occurs at the end of
the track, moving to the next track in the playlist without user intervention. A man-
ual track skip goes to the next track immediately when the appropriate button is pressed.
Options for crossfade settings are:
Enable Crossfade.
If set to
Off
, crossfade is disabled and all track changes are gapless.
If set to
Automatic Track Change Only
, crossfade occurs for automatic track
changes, but not for manual track skips. The next setting,
Manual Track Skip
Only
, is the opposite: tracks will only crossfade when manually skipped. If set to
Shuffle
, crossfade is enabled for all track changes, automatic or manual, when
the shuffle feature is set to
Yes
, but disabled otherwise. If set to
Shuffle or
Manual Track Skip
then crossfade will be active either when shuffle is set to
Yes
or the track is manually skipped. If set to
Always
, tracks will always crossfade
into one another.
