[Dtb-talk] NLS Digital Players

Sun Feb 14 18:19:55 UTC 2010

Ah ... makes sense. However, it hasn't given me grouble on my player.

On another topic, anyone remember the VRStream keystrokes to reset one's 
profile, i.e., zap all bookmarks and start over? I'm having a problem 
wherein my Stream doesn't always activate the speaker when one pulls the 
headphone jack out and think it's a software glitch.
