Music Player on Lumia 820

Wonder if you can help me,

 

Basically, I was wondering if there was any way to skip through songs rather than only being aple to pause them? For example, if I wanted to rewind a little bit or skip to a part I liked etc.

 

I've tried holding down the skip keys but this doesn't seem to do anything, and if I try to swipe along the bar at the bottom showing how far through the current track I am, it just skips to the next one.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Holding down the forward key for a few seconds on the 920 moves the song along so try again and see,in the 820 guide it says its limited so im guessing the duration of the song may be why

If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

Yes it is quite fast within the stock Xbox Music player in Windows Phone 8. As Jimmy has said, just press and hold the next track button and it will fast forward the song. It is proportionate to the length of time you hold the button, so the longer you hold down the button, the faster the track will fast forward. Don't do it for a few seconds, you'll be at the next track by then!


Took me a while to find things myself. What's not stated in the user guide is that to bring up the list of tracks within an album (while playing a song), tap on the area just above the three dots (...) on the bottom right hand corner of the screen. To get back to the list of albums for the artist you are listening to, tap on the artist name while you are playing a track.

Don't know why they don't mark an option on the screen or tell you this stuff in the manual but its there mate.....
