It's been a while but there's a new version of Panucci that's soon to be released and we need your help to test it!

Here's a list of the biggest changes from 0.3 to 0.4:

• The player and playlist have been broken up into their own tabs. This makes managing a playlist a much nicer experience.
• Directories can now be added to the playlist from the playlist tab.
• Buttons that have provide two different functions based on how long they're pressed. This functionality can be disabled from the settings menu and the second action timeout can be configured using gconf-editor or gconf-tool. There are 3 buttons which take advantage of this:
  - The long skip (|<< and >>|) buttons will skip back/forth by one track
  - The bookmark button will bring you to the currently playing track in the playlist tab
• A scrolling title label. If the length of the title is too long in the player window, the text will scroll so that it becomes visible.
• Software decoding. By default Panucci doesn't use the NITs hardware audio decoders, this works around some bugs in Maemo's gstreamer. Hardware decoding can be enabled from the settings menu.
• Fullscreen support. The fullscreen button is now supported, the cover art will be resized to fit the player window when it is pressed.
• Enhanced logging. When Panucci starts it creates ~/MyDocs/panucci.log which contains the debug log for the current panucci session.
• D-Bus API documentation. See: http://nikosapi.org/git/panucci/tree/doc
• French translation. See this commit (thanks Philippe!).
• Better maemo integration (start-up notification for now).

NOTE: We no longer support the mogg package. If you'd like to have ogg playback, remove mogg and install ogg-support.

You should run the following to make sure you have all the required dependencies: Here's a link to the deb: panucci_0.3~pre0.4-2_all.deb

N.B. When you install the deb you'll probably be prompted to upgrade to 0.3, just ignore that. The package is made so that if you don't like it, it's very easy to downgrade to 0.3.
