Changing volume while recording radio

[scowl]

Is there any logical reason why the S9 refuses to let you change the volume while it's recording radio? You want to turn up that station? You have to stop recording to do it.

Considering we're basically talking about a programmed device, there has to be a logical reason. My guess is this: the codec that you are encoding the sound while recording can not be interrupted to change the volume (this is a decoding process). The codec does both the encoding and decoding but it probably can't do both at the same time. If this is the case, the processor needs the interrupt in the recording to access the preset values on the decoder side of the program.

Hey, it's a guess. But, you wanted some logic.
