Hi Guys (Briand and jabastien) this seems to be "a pattern", so we will for sure investigate it further, to try to repeat and fix the bug.

thanks, this is a more complex scenario and without your help we would never be able to do it in such detail.

Marcelo: Not sure if you saw my post, but I'm getting this odd volume spike at the very beginning of a song. I also notice that the volume indicator appears to start at 100% and then goes back to where it was set before. Any thoughts. I must just be me since I haven't seen anyone else post this issue.

Hi Spice3d, I got it, we tried replicating and fixing what happened in some cases, but as you are reporting again, it seems that we are not quite there.

There's a kwnon issue (of a maemo deamon, settings the volume back) and we cannot "deal" with this deamon, so can you please try the following :
set the volume on the DEFAULT media player to zero or near zero, and see if you can reproduce the error ?

What happens is : we send the command to "change volume" or when starting a song we make sure to set the volume to your last used value. It took us some hours to identify what was happening : the default media ENGINE receives the command, set the sound downs, but then the default media PLAYER deamon, goes there and set it back to it's previous volume! Funny huh? thus we need to set it back again. I don't know if Morpheuz has reported this bug to the maemo guys, but now at least you know how to 'reduce" it if that is your case!

I got that one time too.

Hi everyone, I cannot install the youtube plug-in, keeps saying "unable to install canola3 youtube plugin. I have unistalled even canola3 base and reinstalled, but keep getting this messge. I am so anxious to see this work, so if anyone has any ideas much appreciated......
Thanks

Hi, about the out of space: we are working in the "choose your download folder" in the settings, so for now you can try setting a link to another folder. It saves today on internal memory which is quite small.

about not bein able to install: please send us at least your log. Did you follow the right sequence? 1st the update to beta7, then update all used themes, then you tube?

cheers

Does watching a youtube video download it and keep it? Or does watching a youtube video download it, then delete it?

This is just an oddity I've noticed in this and previous Canola2 betas (and two different batteries):

1. Charge tablet to "Battery full" and keep charger connected.
2. Launch Canola2. A D-Bus "Charging" message will display as Canola starts up.
3. Quit Canola.
4. Leave the tablet sitting idle on the charger. The tablet will not achieve "Battery full" again.

The workaround is to disconnect and reconnect the charger, which is simple enough, but why does this happen? Does it have to do with Canola having its own, internal battery meter?

@laughing it : it keeps it in the cache for a while until you watch a new one (then replaces the cache)

The youtube downloaded video location and cache is a real issue, and we will run to fix it.
