Hi Thp,
Thanks a lot for building a wonderful application for N810. I really liked it except for the feature that it doesnt have its own internal player. I cant listen to all the podcasts in one go. I would have to click on individual podcast every time. It is a bit time consuming and demands attention when you want to do other thing simultaneously. With an internal player and capability to podcast videos, this would be a great application to pay for (even though it is worth donating even now).
The application should launch when i click on a podcast link (just like how rss feed reader launches upon clicking on a rss link). This helps easy addition of podcasts instead of copying and pasting links every time one want to add the podcast.
In addition, I found the application very resource hungry, My N810 almost hangs when I click on download three in a series. Also, the application hangs when there are errors with feed links. I am not sure if this is the case with others as well.
The automatic podcast search option (that comes in the beginning of loading the application for the first time) should provide a search window and it should be able to fetch podcast links by searching a key word such as 'Hollywood' etc. Right now it only shows some podcast examples on linux etc stuff.
The status icon in system tray doesnt appear properly (it takes the shape of its adjacent icon and in this case the system tray time making it to look double) and clicking on it does show any action.
I am not sure if you plan to incorporate above features but it would really be great if you could do that.
Keep up the good work
