Ok heres a challenge for you.
One of my partialy sighted friends has a simple CD player she uses to play talking books on CD.She usualy doesnt play all the way through the CD in one go so she has to go back to the last place she stopped using the skip function buttons,typicaly the CD is arranged as one continious track which is helpfull.Anyone know if these cheapo CD players have an interface which you can drive to make the CD skip forward to a particular point without having to use the front buttons?
Otherwide I was thinking of timing the playtime and connecting FETs across the switches so a micro would be able to wiggle the skip buttons to the last place it stopped.
