Description
In any combined volume of files (mine are mp3s), navigating to a different chapter will start playback in the middle of the requested chapter, rather than from the beginning of the requested chapter.
I've seen this happen...
- When navigating to the next/previous chapter using the next/previous controls on either side of the content title
- When navigating to the next/previous chapter using the time based jump forward/backward controls on either side of the play/pause control
- When jumping to a chapter from the chapters list, right next to the bookmark control in the toolbar.
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- Load a folder of audio into the app. I do this in the bookPlayer app using import files, navigating to a folder on my phone containing only audio files, and then taping open
- Open the bookPlayer app, navigate to the parent folder of the folder you just imported.
- Slide your finger left on the folder you just imported revealing the options menu.
- Tap the options menu.
- Tap the "Combine into volume" option in the menu.
- Now tap on the folder (now a volume) you imported. This should start playing the first chapter (file).
- Insure that the seek bar is showing only the current chapter. Below the seek bar you should see "Chapter 1 of XX"
- Move the seek bar to the middle of the chapter.
- Tap the next arrow, just to the right of the title of the content you're playing.
- This should take you to the next chapter, but begin playing in the middle of the chapter.
- You can also seek to the middle of a chapter, and select any chapter from the chapter list. This shoudl take you to that chapter, but again begin playing in the middle.
- You can also seek to close to the end of a chapter, and then press the move forward by time control to the right of he play/pause button, you should be dropped in the middle of the following chapter.
NOTES:
- If I skip around enough, then I will start landing at the beginning of the chapter. I h ave not figured out how to reliably reproduce the behavior going back to moving to the beginning of the chapter..
- This misbehavior is relatively new. the bookPlayer use to consistently land at the beginning of the chapter and stop at a chapter break when skipping by time. I can't pin it down exactly, but the change happened in the lsat few months.
