The Slow Play Function...what does it do &amp; is it optional to use?

It just slows down the speech of the message on the answering machine. It's use is optional.

There is no slow motion mode available for video. You can probably do something with post production software.

I haven't used that function. I have had it play music behind my slideshows, which it does quite well. I expected to be able to load my photos and music onto the Digital Frame via a USB cable, however that didn't seem to work. I expected that USB wireless ability to be built in, so that way was not possible unless I wanted to go buy one somewhere. So, I was left with moving my files and music to a memory card and then putting that into the Digital Window to get it there. The instructions are barely minimal. The picture quality is excellent.

As far as I can tell it displays the number of the song & how many seconds you are into the song and you can pause. You can play songs randomly, repeat a song and play an intro to each song. It doesn't display the song and there is no fast forward or reverse. You can advance to the next song or go back to the previous song.

One important clarification - it remembers the file you were on and starts playing it from the beginning, but if you were listening to, say, a lecture which is 1+ hours long, it won't remember where you stopped, so it will start it over from the beginning. You have NO way to fast forward (only skip), which is why I'll be returning mine.

Hello, I'm an owner of this device. The settings and functions of the 4gb Phillips player are very basic and it does not, I believe, have a sleep timer or even a clock funcion. For basic music playing needs I've been happy with it altogether. Hope this was helpful

My player works great! I can fast forward or rewind during the playback of a song by pressing and holding the double arrow key on the bottom. If you press the button and release, you go to the next or previous song, but if you hold it down it will fast forward or reverse; you can watch the time lapse counter on the screen.

I do not know. I did not use that feature. I have not been pleased with the current one because the play back over the radio has been really poor. My guess is that it would still have that feature.

To my knowledge, the "slow" version simply moves less often. I have always used the slow version (which moves every 10-15 seconds, at least for me) and it has worked like a charm! No more having to enter multiple passwords every time I come back to my desk after a five minute ladies room break!

I've never used this feature, but to answer you question my husband turned on the music. Apparently each of the 5 songs plays for about 30 seconds and then plays again,and again, and again for approximately 20 minutes. You select which song you want to play. I hope this answers your question. The monitor is really a sanity saver because it lets me do some things while the baby sleeps. One more thing, don't expect to see anything on the screen in bright sunshine. It is completely washed out in that kind of light, but well worth having outside because you can hear the baby when he wakes up. I wouldn't be without it.

This particular device is not a "player" so you don't ever get good quality. I don't think it plays faster when I listen to mine, but sometimes it records things too fast. Try listening to the music you record as an Mp3 on your computer. If it sounds right then the device is working. They now have a new homepage and updates for the player on-line so you might go there and see if there is information to help.

I have had the same question after buying it. I can barely hear the playback. Which is why I don't use it anymore.

It would not be best for this purpose. When you change the playback speed faster/slower, it changes the tempo as well as the pitch. Besides the speed variation may not be enough for your application. I would recommend using an MP3 music file and run it through an audio program that lets you change the tempo and the pitch independently. I use QuickTime Player 7.6.6. or you can use another program like "Audacity". It has so many options to change you sound tracks. Best of luck!!!

Yes, that's correct, it's just that in order to pause\play you need a longer press, and also to switch song it's a press and turn... so sometimes the press is not long enough or the rotation isn't "close" enough to the press, so it goes into rider to rider pairing... muting the device for about 5 seconds, announcing the failure to connect and goes back to where it was, sometimes it even gets the last command and song changes, even though it went into pairing.

You can stop songs from playing, you can set up the next song, and you can select any song you have stored on the jam man device. I use mine all the time and wouldn't be without it. It's worth the price

I certainly haven't seen a delay in the 3-4 second range, but I never paid attention much as it didn't matter since it was just sitting there recording. Any extra time at the beginning or end could be edited out. I don't know that it would work playing a game from, though. It's not like having video plugged into a monitor. (I mention this because you mention having a game capture card.)

Pretty sure it only does that after first putting it in and after having it connected to a PC. However, there is an issue, this thing is slow and laggy in the menus. Sometimes it takes up to 8 seconds just to skip to the next song. I can't recommend it.
