Note that I saw your next message stating you have managed to reproduce, this is
great.

The +/- changes the playback speed, if you did not enable instant rate changes,
this will effectively cause a seek, so its quite likely you can reproduce with
that way too.

What I was using is left/right arrows. I would just seek forward (right arrow)
close to the end, and then press and hold the left arrow till it reaches
position 0. Rince and repeat.

Nicolas
