I have an 80 GB classic.
Lately I've noticed that sometimes the audio will jump forward and backward through podcasts during playback. It seems to follow the same pattern for a given podcast (i.e. the same jumps seem to occur if I repeat playback). Interestingly, the progress bar DOES NOT jump around. It appears as if the playback is moving smoothly from start to finish. Often playback will jump out of the podcast altogether and the next podcast will start. "Rewind" often does not work during sections where jumps are occurring, but Fast-forward can sometimes be used to skip past a "jump" and avoid it. The issue seems to have gotten worse the last month or so, but it still does not seem to affect music playback.
I have not yet tested the podcasts in iTunes to see if the same phenomenon occurs. I wanted to see if others had similar experiences and know of any fixes. I believe I am current on firmware (haven't received any notices to update lately).
Thanks in advance!
