I was just listening to one of my newer discs.. my CD-Player skipped as soon as
I hit the play button (it has a habit of doing that), but instead of
re-tracking forwards.. it re-tracked *backwards*, so that the display read
-0:08 (8 seconds BEFORE track 1).  Curiously, I hit the rewind button and it
went backwards to -1:03, then started playing a song I'd never heard!  Now, how
do I get the CD player to repeat this?  It just ignores pressing rewind when it
starts track 1 at 0:00..  my CD-ROM player shows track 1 starting at position
1:03, but won't let me play anything previous.  Any ideas??  (Aside from
whacking the unit as soon as it starts playing)
