screen burn - 17/12/1999 17:45
Is there a way to force the empeg to blank the screen or enable some screen saving features during synchronization? Having accepted my fate (for the time being anyway) to use the serial port to be able to load the empeg from my linux machine means 16 hours to load one CDR worth of tunes. A 20 GB empeg means I am doing this almost every night. I now have the unit about 60% full and I've started to notice some faint screen burn (I can see a faint outline of the synchronizing pop-up box when that portion of the screen is lit by paused eye candy or something). This is not cool since the unit is barely a month old and I want to use it for years.
of course, linux USB support would greatly ease my burden by speeding up synchs a order of magnitude or so. :-)
