By the popularity it has gained, I think I will give it a try anyway. Didn't know it had that feature.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player

The first post or wiki entry doesn't reflect this. Anyway it got fixed itself.

openmediaplayer pulls libplayback which is binary-only. Are there plans to make it work using only open-source deps? Otherwise, are there other good open-source touch-friendly players?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Alpha release of Open Media Player

It crashes if i tap "shuffle" button of the main menu more than once in a row.

Some links for reverse engineering:

http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-fi...k-1/files.html
http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/...in#libplayback
https://wiki.maemo.org/Free_Maemo#libplayback
https://wiki.maemo.org/Porting/Audio
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=67157

It's a good practice to remain integrated with the operating system, even if there are closed blobs within the OS. Don't like closed-ness of blobs? Reverse engineer them, make them open-source.

Best wishes.

hmm, libplayback is some 20k ARM binary, might look at it

Guys! When can we have the browse by folder option in Videos (and Music too if possible).

You can get a minimalistic file browser by installing this plugin pack: http://maemo.org/packages/view/mafw-grilo-source/.

Sorry for the delay, I am still alive, just buried under a truckload of work. :( The new repository is here: https://github.com/gidzzz/openmediaplayer.

I tried furiously tapping the shuffle button, but I could not reproduce that. The main window should be locked immediately after the first tap, until you return from the now playing window, so I have no idea where this crash could be coming from. If you know how to obtain a backtrace, there is openmediaplayer-dbg package in the repositories.
