I finally replaced my aging and, occasionally faulty, 2nd gen ipod with a 160Gb classic. Been experimenting with movies and tried to scroll the way i do with music, ie. click the centre button and scroll with the wheel, much faster than using the fast forward.
However, this doesn't seem to work. I even checked the manual and it says to do this:
"Skip to any point in a song or video: From the nowplaying sreen, press the center button and then scroll to any point in the song or video."
So, it should work but each time I touch the scroll wheel, the volume control comes up. This means that if I want to restart watching a movie I have to fast forward with the fast forward button and that takes ages.
Anyone else seen this issue or am I doing something wrong. The now playing window for a movie should just be the movie playing on the screen, right?
Cheers,
J.

As I said in my post, that's what I've done: Pressed the center button and then the scroll wheel and it switches to volume rather than forward.

Press the center button (brings up volume controls, then press the center button again (should bring up timline to scroll back and forth)
i think you just need to press it twice?

Gah, something as simple as that. Thank you, was driving me nuts.
Cheers.
