YES! Otherwise I haven't found any lack of features I would miss or other bugs. If the playlist stuff is still to faulty and not fixable we could remove it completly and use it only as a normal player. (a player that knows what track was played the last time and where it has stopped)

I tried already my luck early September this year. Your progress was not fast enought for me and I thought I have only to compare and to integrate the removed code to the right places to create my own hack and provide it here for others as soon as I have finished my work.
I found your Bluetooth code at the old version and tried to integrate the code to the new version. But I'm a .NET Programmer and I have only rudimentary python knowledge. I know PyQt and the Signal and Slots concept from Qt4. But I guess the GTK stuff was to different or I have overseen the salient point. But I must say I gave up after a half day without any kind of success and thought I should better wait for the professional Panucci artist.

Thanks a lot for your offer!

I guess I should give it a new try. Before Christmas I'm very busy. (and I still need some gifts) But as soon as I find some spare time I will look again into your code and will ask where my problems lie.

The bigger Buttons are nice, but they are not the unique power feature.
Thanks for your hard work so far.
