David<br>I gave it a try today. The results were excellent.<br><br>I have some feedback:<br>1) I found synchronising to be a bit tricky the first time you do it. This wasn't helped by the fact that I had 20 minutes of tracks before I started the audio recorder. I've updated the wiki with what I hope are clearer and better instructions.<br>
<br>2) While audio is playing, when I clicked on an audio marker it caused JOSM to hang.<br><br>3) The Open dialog for audio files does not appear to remember the last place that was used. Other open dialogs in JOSM do.<br>
<br>4) It would be nice to have keyboard shortcuts for Forward and Backwards.<br><br>5) It would be nice to hide the audio markers without also hiding the orange cursor. I don't use waypoints and found that using the orange cursor and the forward and backward buttons was all that I needed most of the time.<br>
<br>6) Lastly, it would be really nice if it was possible to play the audio at varying speeds. For long roads if I've made occasionals marks I don't really want to listen to the whole recording in real time, but there's not really any way of knowing where the next one will be without listening to the whole recording. Variable play speed would help with this.<br>
<br>Overall I really like it :)<br>80n<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Feb 23, 2008 at 10:29 PM, David Earl <<a href="mailto:david@frankieandshadow.com">david@frankieandshadow.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Having done a two-hour long audio recording today, I find that waypoints<br>
near the end have "drifted" a bit. It was about 8 seconds out after<br>
about 100 minutes.<br>
<br>
I did find one problem whereby the audio player wasn't jumping ahead as<br>
far as I thought it was when you pressed the marker, which I have<br>
released a change for.<br>
<br>
But that doesn't fix the problem. I need to look into this a bit<br>
further, and there may well be a timing bug still in there somewhere,<br>
but I am also wondering whether the clock on my dictaphone is not all<br>
that accurate.<br>
<br>
I'd be interested to know whether anyone else sees discrepancies, but I<br>
suggest getting tonight's build to try it in.<br>
<br>
In the meantime, be warned, and be prepared to put a synchronisation<br>
point in say every half hour or so. (You can synchronise at more than<br>
one place along a track - you might have paused the recording, for example).<br>
