That's good to know!  I just need to program this puppy, and it'll be
amazing.  I'm already in love with it just for the fader controls, with 
the rest in place, it's going to be a thing of beauty.

As an aside, TapeOp, which is generally not a big Behringer fan (for
valid reasons, too), reviewed the BCF and BCR units in the latest issue, and
gave a very positive review.

I'm one step ahead of you here - I just built the new CVS with DEBUG=1, I'll
review the process to get you a trace shortly.  I don't think this is really
an MMC issue, since it takes the FFwd command and starts the playing.  When
it fails, nothing's happening with MMC.  Details to follow, I'll put it in 
Mantis when I've got something.
