The title pretty much says it all:  trying out my new TinyTV 2.  It's wonderful, as long as you like it to start each video at a random point when you change channels.  There is a setting for this, but not only does the setting not do anything, the device changes the settings file to its preferred setting of "true" every time.

If I set the randStartTime option in the settings.txt to false, it resets itself to true and I always get the random start behaviour.  The first time I look at the settings.txt file after turning it on to view, the file has changed back to its original randStartTime=true.  I edit the settings.txt on the device directly, it resets itself.  I edit it on my PC and copy the settings file to the device, it resets itself.  I try a power cycle between, no difference.  I try ejecting, power cycle, re-insertion, still reset.  The device itself seems to be opening the settings.txt file and writing randStartTime=true to its own configuration file, before starting to play, so I always get random start times.

What am I missing?  The specific little videos I'm using need to be seen from the start.
