ok, I couldn't wait to try the new features. Doh, it scans, and it crashes.
No prob, I deleted it and reinstalled. It scans and crashes and wipes out all desktop apps.
OK, so I restart and try my luck again. It scans... it works! sorta...
It only saw the 2-3 mp3s on my internal card(MMC2). I used file mgr to check removable card (MMC1). My card is now "Removable Memory Card" and No files found! Um...ok.

IOError: [Errno 5] Input/output error: 'media/mmc1/covers/songlist.txt'

Removed card and replaced, then rebooted. File mgr sees MMC1 and it's files fine. I deleted the covers dir to start over. Tried UKMP again. It scans, it downloads covers, it scrolls, and I select a song...whoo hoo!... sorta...

I click on a song, and it freezes, hard.

I normally have around 3 gigs of mp3s on my 8 gig card. I deleted half, and it worked!

Is there a file limit?

On the new version it quits after loading too
running it from the terminal gives :

New version 1.62 released.

It only fixes uktube bug in downloading youtube videos. Youtube had changed the way flash video is referred on the page and that had to be changed to uktube as well.

Download here:
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/ukmp/

Thanks for a fine program.

In 1.62 (just downloaded from maemo.org), however, there is a small glitch which makes it crash: line 2234, /usr/bin/MediaCenter.py starts with

if if len(...

remove one of those 'if's and it runs like a charm.

I downloaded it twice and the error persisted, so I suppose it's the archive which is in error.

I (a newbe) downloaded the UKMP-1.62.deb to my new N800 along with MPlayer and Python 2.5. Installed them all. When I installed UKMP-1.62.deb (using the app manager from a file because I was having problems with d-loading w/ App Manager ) the only app that requested a location was the UKTube (placed in "extras"). UK Tube and UKMO Dark are both listed as programs in the Extras folder. But if I open UKMO Dark I get a box saying UKMO Dark loading but it never does. UK Tube opens but it is a number of open boxes and I can't get it to work.

Am I missing something?

I’m having problems to I downloaded the update now it won’t open?
And I really love this program I hope someone fix it soon...

Looks pretty much like the error I've described above. You can verify it by starting ukmp from an xterm.

The solution is also there: delete 2 characters (but I'm aware that vi is not everyones favorite tool ...).

First off I'd like to thank konttori for such an excellent app. I've been using UKMP for a while and I believe it's truly one of the essentials.

As for the 1.62 release I used leafpad to make the changes, saved it with the same name in a different folder and copied it back to the original location. Didn't cut down on steps but left me with my comfortable gui blanket.

Hi guys,

sorry for the if if bug. It's fixed now.
1.621 is available from:
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/ukmp

Thanks for the update. I do get a app loaded now. It doesn't find any albums so auto exits. I don't have any albums. There's no controls, file open, etc. I had expected the player to be more an itunes-like player. I think I may need a different app my main goal at the mo is to get internet radio playing on the 800, when I use the native player the IR drops in seconds. Thanks again.
