I’m wondering if anyone has come across what I describe below in reference to the BCD-1 CD player. I’m curious to know whether what I observe is normal or a glitch some kind.
I’ll have a CD playing. The display will be set to show the remaining track time. When the remaining time is around 3 seconds–at which time the music of the track will have actually stopped or be extremely quiet (because of “fading” out to the end of the tune/piece), I’ll press a button for a track other than the following one. For example, if it’s track 4 playing, I’ll press a button for track 1, 7, 8 . . . anything but 5.
When I do this, instead of playing the track whose button number I’ve pressed on the remote, the following track will play (track 5 in the example above). The display will register the 1, 7, or 8 that I’ll have pressed (for example), but track 5 will play nonetheless.
If I press the 1, 7, 8 (etc.) at other times during track 4's play (continuing with this same example), then track 1, 7, or 8 will play after the customary second or two delay after the key press.
I can reproduce this behavior at will, on any CD. If, in pressing a button to select a new track, I wait too late (?) towards the end of a track, or act too soon (?) before the beginning of the next track, that next track will play, and *not* the one I selected via the remote.
If this is normal, I’m OK with it. If not, might there be a software or other fix planned? I’d like to know either way.
