Music Player
1. Please show Song Artist rather than album artist. This really annoys me. All my compilation albums show up as Various Artist rather than the person that sang the song playing. For non-compilation albums it will only show Michael Jackson rather than Michael Jackson ft Heavy D.
2. Way to search albums, genres, etc the same way the address book works. ie if I am in albums and I start typing W-R-I it only shows albums beginning with W-R-I which on my device should only show Writings on the Wall.
3. Option to show album art in full screen like on ipod touch. I quite like that. Gives some real eye candy.
4. Please, please improve the random feature. If I am playing a list of 2,000 songs on random it plays the songs in the exact same order each time. So if I go back to that list I have to keep forwarding till it gets to the first song I haven't yet listened to. This is not what random is about at all.
5. Portrait mode a necessity of course.
6. When the screen is off and the song has changed it displays for a second the previous song that was playing before the screen went off. This annoys me a bit. But not a problem with the music player alone I don't think though. More a problem with the device. When the screen is blank it just takes time to refresh. For example if the screen is off and I get a call it can take as long as three seconds for the answer button, etc to light up. Just get a blank screen with a ringing phone.
7. Good software for synching. Everything I have tried just syncs to the main folder of the device rather than the music folder (Windows Media Player, Winamp, Media Monkey). Ovi Music does not work at all.
Video Player
1. Please improve the buffering or whatever it's called. Hate the way videos stutter for the first few seconds. Not a big deal if all you have is movies but big deal when you have something like the 100m World Championship final which is over in 9.58 seconds but the device is stuttering for 7.58 seconds.
2. An option to sort videos into custom categories rather than just film and videos recorded on the device. I want to have things like Music Videos, Football, Athletics, TV Shows, etc. Two categories is just bad (I though ipod touch was daft for having just about four).
3. An option to strectch to full screen.
