Just read through the entire thread and gotta say that the dev response on this app is AWESOME.

Would like to add an additional vote for browse by folder, would definately replace default player if Instinctiv had that feature.

I noticed nobody mentioned anything in regards to possible shake to control integration. There's an app for the default media player called "Shake 2 Control" where shaking the N900 side to side would skip to next track, and shaking it towards you would pause the track. It also has a nice feature which prevents it from activating if the proximity sensor senses something (i.e. N900 is in your pocket). Problem there is that none of the features are configurable, so you can't change shake sensitivity or disable the "pause" function or somesuch (I only really need next track). Apparently source code for that is here: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=539997&postcount=7
Would be nice to have just a checkbox somewhere for "shake for next track", even better if its configurable, but not too picky about it =P

In regards to volume/camkey for playback control, qwerty12 wrote a closed app for default media player called "Extended Locked Media Player Control" which does stuff similar to what people were suggesting. Not sure how he did his magic, but just some food for thought. Code is closed cause he was completely pissed at the community/Nokia, though.


Anyways, just good to know that someone is actively working on providing a GREAT media player application, will keep tabs on this project as it definately seems promising.
