When you encounter audio, the SA Mobile Media Player will pop up. When this happens, audio will begin playing. You can control the media player with keyboard commands as follows:
- Control+P will pause playback, or if playback is paused, will resume playback.
- Control+S will stop playback. Note, Media Player closes immediately after the stop command is issued.
- Left, and Right arrow keys move you to next, and previous tracks.
- Up, and down arrow keys increase, or decrease the audio's volume.
Moving Around in Audio
You can use the following commands to move around in an audio file on your computer or an audio program being streamed on-demand from the Internet. Note that these commands don't work for live streams or for Windows Media.
- Control Left Arrow will move 6 seconds back.
- Control Right Arrow will move 6 seconds forward.
- Control Up Arrow will move one minute back.
- Control Down Arrow will move one minute forward.
- Page Up will move ten minutes back.
- Page Down will move ten minutes forward.
Mark Your Place
When listening to audio content located on the System Access Mobile Network, you can press Control+M to mark your place in the audio, so you can continue listening later or return to a favorite spot. The SA Mobile Network will immediately send you an email containing a link, which you can activate when you want to continue listening. You can also forward this email to other SA Mobile Network users, if you want to share your favorite part of a movie with them, for example.
Presets
While you are playing audio from an online radio station, or other source, you may want to save the stream as a preset. Presets allow you to quickly play an audio stream without needing to search for it from a list. While audio is playing, just tab to the "Add to presets" link, tap the enter key, and the audio stream will be added to the presets list. A window will pop up confirming that a preset has been added to the presets list. Just tap the escape key to close it, and you will be returned to the media player window.
When you want to play one of your presets simply navigate to the entertainment guide, and select presets from the list. All of your presets will be listed so you only need to move to the preset you want to listen to, and tap the enter key. Media should then begin playing within a few seconds.
