split pea scroller media editorThe media player uses a unique two-part scroller that makes it easy to pinpoint exact instants even within very large audio and video recordings.

Drag the top half of the scroller split pea scroller - full duration to scroll through the full duration of the recording. This scroll control works exactly like the scroller in other media players.
Drag the bottom half of the scroller split pea scroller - one minute to scroll within a single minute.

Use the top scroller to get as close as you can to the point you want. With short recordings, this may be very close, but with longer recordings it becomes more difficult. Then, use the bottom scroller to find exactly the instant you want.
