ok, so I updated to 1.5.1, and when I launched ukmp, I got the scanning prompt, then black screen. There was no way out, I had to actually remove the battery to reboot. After a couple tries and the the exact same problem, I reinstalled. I even reinstalled mplayer and python. No luck.

Then when I ran ukmp in terminal, I did notice that it had choked on the "covers" directory on my card. OK, so I tried to delete the directory from my n800, and it said it can't because it's a "read only format". How did that change over a few min? I popped the card into my mac, deleted it, and it still choked on the new covers directory. I reformatted the card, recopied my mp3s, and ran ukmp, viola, it worked perfectly!

So I'm not sure what happened between the moment I installed the new version and now, but It's fixed. Hope it helps some one else having a similar problem. Check your covers directory.

btw, konttori
is there anyway to make the scan process an option? Kinda like how canola does it, the user can decide whether or not to scan the cards. It takes 2-4 mins to scan and kinda a bummer. Especially when showing it to someone how cool it is. Also can there be some kind of indicator for music position when you scrub forward or back?

thanks
