We need to replace:

- Media Player (DeaDBeeF maybe?)

I'm sure I missed some...
I seem to recall MohammedAG is working on a Qt clone of the N900 stock media player... would that be a possbility, to keep things familiar?

If we would go for the N900 Media Player I would rather want to see something that actually works like Media Player (with whole MAFW behind), not something that just looks like one. (I didn't investigate whether Mohammad's player uses MAFW, though )

Same goes for the browser. I have nothing against users installing standalone browser, but I would like to stick to EAL based solution in the default system.



P.S. One of my motivators for going on with this project is that I want these clever Maemo solutions not to be forgotten.

MohammadAG's media player, just like the stock one, uses MAFW which is AFAIK not part of the MeeGo middlerare. Correct me if I'm wrong.

In the same vein, perhaps work could be undertaken to make Modest use something that is not Tinymail. UI-wise, Modest is sound; it was "the" app for GTK+ developers to look at to see how a program should be Hildonized. However, you only need to read the many stories 'round here to see where it fails (slowness, etc.).

MohammadAG's Qt Media Player does support MAFW, nicolai added support for it. However, when using my N900 with the default media player, I'd notice slowdowns with huge playlists etc. Not to mention Grillo seems to replace it outside of Maemo (though, admittedly, I don't know how stable Grillo is)

As we can see MeeGo provides only low-level APIs.

btw, what other media players for N900 there is, which use DSP-accelerated decodecs for video? Just thinking, maybe some of them should be ported first than for example monolithic mplayer. I guess VLC nor Kmplayer doesn't use gstreamer either though. Gstreamer would have dsp-acceleration.

I'm pretty sure kmplayer is a front-end for both GStreamer and MPlayer.

Hi thanks again smoku. I am not trying to hijack this thread but was hoping u could convince the team behind the community ssu to join your cause. Trying to fix a dean os isnt worth it, where as creating a new and better one is like your idea.

MAG wanted to see the push feedback, so as I was already making a screencast, I may as well show the current state of Cordia's HD.
