No problem, man. Aren't we digging all day in the dark?

It feels here like that.

Is fixing this bug as dangerous has his promise?

I guess I need a new suit and a proper car for this mission.

I would say let's take the other way arround and call it "add new tacks only to playlist".
So this value has to be true to get the current behavior or false to get immediate playback. Hmm... what do you think?
Or is it more confusing than "immediate playback of new tracks"?

Perhaps a good place for:

Code:

            if platform.FREMANTLE:

It works at maemo, too. But it is confusing that the task manager appears as soon as you close the settings screen. It's a little bit different.

Yes, the menu looks great. And Qt does a great job.

The settings dialog works, too. But have a look at the screenshot. It's a little bit crowded. Perhaps a Vertical Scrollarea would be a good idea.

But Qt works good. It doesn't gave up and everything fit's in the screen.

If panucci is not running and I chose th play a file in gpodder it plays the last track automatically from the beginning (not the last position and not the new track) - The new track, chosen to play, is added at the end of the playlist.

I'm using the last release of gpodder from extra devel. Not from git. I shied the effort to overwrite the gpodder code that is spread over several places on my device. It's hard for me to catch all parts and don't miss some old ones and to introduce a additional bug. It worked since more than a year. I thought the chance is very low that something has chance since thp has stopped working on the panucci part.

Do you mean the small black squares in the lower right corner? Yes, I mentioned this before. "Small defective appearance"

But this is only at the gtk code. The Qt part looks very good.

But additionally, have a look at the screenshot number 2. There are german umlauts in the track description (or title). Instead of the umlaut ü it shows 2 other characters (not able to type those at the moment)
Have you ensured to use QString instead of the String object everywhere in the code? There seems to be a problem using unicode characters.
