but in the meantime I suppose you can use your player's hard
> shutdown/reset feature, if it has one (they're listed in the Quick
> Start section of the manual).

Hi. Just wondering what is the point of this plugin exactly, as in why would 
someone want to do this sum thing to all there files. and secondly, i'm no 
expert on hard discs, but it doesn't sound like a really good idea hard 
resetting your player especially when the disc is spinning round, at the 
very least, couldn't that shorten your drives life, and at the worst 
actually damage your hard disc? i mean i no a hard reset is some times 
unavoidable, but i really hate doing them especially when the drive is spun 
up, as you can actually here them making a kind of pinging noise, i don't no 
how to describe it when the power just suddenly goes from them, its not the 
normal gentle click sound as the drive closes down.
