SOrry if this has been mentioned, did have a quick look

Just updated to latest beta, its all good (love the auto changing visuals etc)
only prob is the handy ability to scroll through a 1 or 2 hour mp3 with the twiddler seems to have disappeared, on that page, the knob now just seems to do volume. Have i missed something? Also, the player is very slow to notice when you've held in the RH button to FFWD that way, perhaps up to 5 seconds before it starts to react.

The "up to 5 seconds to react to FF" is a known bug in the beta.

The knob-spin behavior in "seek tool" mode has changed. I believe it is covered in the release notes for beta13, please read them. Also note that if you have installed hijack, the knob press behavior might alter the way you enter the seek tool mode, not sure.

Yes, here it is in the release notes:

    In Seek Tool mode, left/right and rotary turn now perform their normal
    functions. To activate the seek tool functions press the rotary control:
    the rotary turn now seeks within the track and left/right skip to the
    previous/next phrase. Pressing the rotary control again switches back
    to normal mode.

I did try that, because it was my instinct to do that, but it just brought up the other audio settings, like it would in any other page. I'll try it again, since i know now its supposed to be there!
I may go to the non-beta to be on the safe side. Thanks for replying. Will.
