Code:

Segmentation fault
I think now I have no choice but to use the stock video player for downloaded videos in cuteTube. The story of the QML Video element just goes from bad to worse. It's unusable in Symbian, far from perfect in Maemo5, and now I find that, quite apart from the terrible scaling issues (which seem to have improved somewhat in PR1.2), it is now unstable in Harmattan.
The one great feature of OVP has is to play the videos in the background (great for when listening to music that I downloaded from youtube )

A good work around for this issue for me is having ffmpeg and convert them to m4a or mp3, like cutetube does on the N900.
I found out that there is a ffmpeg in one of the repositories (i think rzr's repo) but somehow, I couldn't get this to work :/

I found out that the headphone bug is solved.
On PR1.1: If you turn on your phone while your headphones are plugged in, the phone doesn't detect your headphones and the sound/music will come out of the phone speaker.
Seems to be fixed in PR1.2

I also find it pretty annoying that everytime when I boot my phone, the "sim option icon" will show up in the menu, even if I put it in a folder, it will be outside of it again once you reboot the phone.
See screenshot which icon I mean (the last icon with the simcard logo on it)
