I also can't get a standard system keyboard to pop up after highlighting text so that I can copy/paste text from the details listed like I used to be able to do.

I decided to drop this feature (editing URLs) long ago. It just makes things more complicated. If the URL of a feed changes, just add the new URL and (if you don't care about the old episodes) remove the old one. If you do care, either re-download in the new feed or leave the old podcast in place.

I just wanted to write: "Highlighting is possible, and you can use the hardware keyboard to copy things." Which is when the symbolical light bulb appeared above my head and reminded me of all the good N800 users out there. Please file as a feature request - a "copy selected text" menu item or tap-and-hold menu item (if that doesn't make the text lose its focus) is probably what you want, right?

That dialog was deemed not suitable for end users and direct access has therefore been made more difficult.

For you, this means Fullscreen-Fullscreen-Plus-Minus-Plus-Fullscreen in the preferences dialog. Have fun

Looks like a bug to me. Please file it as one and don't forget to add which media player you have configured. Thanks
