pycage,

Couple of more stupid questions/bug reports/feature requests.

1. Since I have started using mediabox as my sole mp3/ogg player, I've noticed a couple of things. First, is there a way to have it pick back up where it left off? I mean, I listen to podcasts when I am in the car on my commute. When I get to the train (more on that later), office or whatever, I close down MediaBox to free memory for other apps. When I open it again for the trip home, I would like it to autoresume. Is this possible at some point in the future?

2. I also noticed that if you arrange your playlist, moving items around, then close, then reopen, the play list reverts to the default order. An example: On Sunday night/Monday morning, I download my podcasts using gpodder on my desktop (gpodder is a little too heavy and locks up in my attempts to use it on the N810). I copy them to ~/MyDesktop/.sounds/Podcasts. When I open MediaBox, I import the contents of this directory into the playlist. Then, when time permits, I shuffle the order of play...But when I close MediaBox, the playlist reverts to its original order.

3. If I am playing sound files, and change over to video, then back to sound files, I get strange behavior. When I go back to playing sound files, more often than not, it starts playing the video again. Have you seen this?

Perhaps my usage is non-normal, but these are things I have seen with MediaBox.

Thanks,
