Some "Now Playing" questions from a former Zen XTRA user
Hello all...
I'm new to iPod, as my Creative Zen XTRA just had hard drive failure and I replaced it with a new 5.5G iPod. Anyway, in general iPod is very nice, but a couple of things that I liked about the Zen seem to be missing from the Now Playing screen on iPod.
1 - Scrolling tag information
It seems like only the song title will scroll when the title is too big to fit on the screen. However, I really need the album title to scroll as well. The Zen did so, but I cannot find any setting to make the album title scroll on iPod.
2 - Maintaining position when connecting
For some reason, the current position is lost when syncing to a computer. Is there any way to have it remember what it was doing and have it pick back up right there? Right now I'm in the middle of a 4065 song playlist and it's really annoying that I have to try and re-find the song I left off each night. The Zen never lost its current state. Also, position within the song would be nice, but I can tolerate just the song.
Anyway, those are really the only two things that bug me about the switch. But for me, those are significant. Is there a way to fix those?
Thank you!
