Okay, a other thing I liked before has changed. (and I must admit, I've done the update just yesterday - I have currently no w-lan and apt-get update dissipates a lot of my monthly GPRS volume)

Before: If the last (or current) track was finished the playback stoped and the audiofile stayed open at the end of the track. So I was able to rewind 10 seconds if I missed something at the end.

Now it stops and if I press play the playback begins from the start. (not very well if I want to jump fast to minute 30 because if I hit the end by accident the playback stops immediately again and I have to press play and seek from the beginning a second time to find the last 10 seconds)

Pause and stay at the end was obviously better for podcasts and audiobooks. The reason No1 for Panucci - at least for me. For other stuff I use the built in Media Player.

I would say the best solution is:
  • Add new tracks to the Playlist if Panucci is already running. But there should be something to notify the user about this behavior.
  • If a new file is opened the current playback shouldn't stop and the play/pause state shouldn't be touched. (If it's currently playing keep playing. If it's at pause stay there and don't move. )
  • If the playback is finished and the player is at the end of the playlist switch only in pause mode but keep the file open and at the end of the track.
  • If track 2 from the playlist is playing and I rewind I should be able to go to the end of track 1. (not checked if that works currently)

Just my two cents.
Are there other opinions?
