This is definitely planned.

I fully agree!

Does it have any benefits when MediaBox searches for UPnP devices in the beginning already?

What do you mean by "server-linked playlist"?
Playlists are saved across sessions. The "Queue" playlist, however, is special and does not get saved.

No it's not a problem, just wondered was it an error.

Is there a way to save internet radio stations that I selected for the playlist? As of now what I have saved to the playlist is not kept if I exit MediaBox.

Also getting a poping/clicking sounds in the audio with the internet radio. I do not get this with Media player when playing the radio.

Well, new defined playlists with mp3 localized on NAS (Twonky) are not saved, they are "virgin" when Mediabox is started again!

Yes, storing UPnP items in playlists still needs some work.
But saving internet radio stations works now. UPnP will be next.

I just installed the latest SVN-version, and I just had to say Wow! Good work!

This is so good.

Pycage,

I have a problem with the "This week in photography" podcast. It is encoded in eAAC so that the album art can be changed during playback to show photographs and the like. The issue is that mplayer doesn't like the pseudo video stream and stops playing after less than a second. There is a simple fix which is to start mplayer with the -novideo option.

I have found that it is possible to add this option to MediaBox without causing any other problems.

At line 264 of AudioWidget.py add after the line:

Code:
self.__player = mediaplayer.get_player_for_mimetype(item.mimetype)
Add the line

Code:
self.__player.set_options("-novideo")
Would you consider merging this into the trunk?

I have noticed when a song/track has finished playing and I press the 'play arrow' on the player to play that selection again it will not play. I have to select another song/track and then go back to the one I want to hear.

Thanks, I'll put it in. It shouldn't hurt, but help in this case.
