Charging renews shuffle playlist / switch display off while charging?

SanDisk MP3 players Sansa® Clip | Sansa® Clip+

Hi,

is there any chance to charge the battery without making the media bay to refresh?
(background is that I’m always using shuffle. And it seems if I charge, the ‘internal’ shuffled playlist renews itself somehow. I would love to go on in the prior shuffle even though charging in between).

Further, is it possible to switch the players’ display off when charging?

Thnx a lot!

If you charge via your computer’s USB port, the Clip’s display will turn off after about an hour.  This isn’t user-changeable.  The one exception is, if you use a power-only (that is, no-data) USB cable (or cover up or remove the data pins in a regular USB cable, or otherwise attach the USB cable lightly so that the data pins do not make a connection to your computer), the following will apply.

If you charge via a USB AC adapter, the display turns off according to your display setting.  Also, there is no refresh when you detach from a USB AC adapter.

Great tip–thanks (and for verifying that it works on the Clip)!  The idea:  have your Clip on and paused when you connect to your computer, and there’s no refresh when you disconnect.
