Description Cody Russell 2008-06-19 06:32:21 UTC 
Title says it all.  In Banshee 0.13 (or whatever was on Ubuntu), as well as every other media program and media player I've ever seen, when you hit the 'Previous' button/action/whatever then it restarts the current song.  But with Banshee 1.0 it seems to actually go to the previous song.  Is that intentional, or is that a bug?

Not sure, honestly, but Playback | Restart Song (or pressing R) will restart the current song. So maybe intentional?
Comment 2 Cody Russell 2008-06-20 05:15:51 UTC 
Yeah, but still seems broken.  Think media keys, or if you had a remote control setup or something.  I've never seen a CD player or mp3 player that goes to the previous song by hitting the 'prev' button a single time.  Always two times.
Comment 3 Andrew Conkling 2008-06-20 13:33:20 UTC 
Agreed. That was mostly tongue-in-cheek, otherwise I would've changed the status of the bug. ;)

I checked Totem and iTunes, they go to the previous song only if the current song has been played less than 4 and 3 seconds correspondingly. Otherwise they restart the current song.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
