Any chance there will be gapless playback included ? Or in different words: Is there a major obstacle as to why such a feature cannot be realized under Meamo 5 ?

Fantastic work so far, by the way.

Setting the rpath to /usr/lib is just plain wrong. The app will look into that path anyway if there is nothing else set, so it is unnecessary - additionally, one cannot override this path, so there is no chance to use different library versions for the app if the rpath is set this way.

I guess that's the reason for the crashes I see on my device.

Yes, the rpath should be set to /opt/usr/lib/instinctiv (avoiding the need for the instinctiv.launch script), or shouldn't be set at all (in which case the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting in the instinctiv.launch script will be used to find the libraries).

Is it possible to disable the use of the network connection for people who are worried about the cost of data or privacy?

great app, really nice for exercising or running. It has tons of potential, I would pay for an app like this with more extensive feature. Thanks guys!

Yeah, now they mention that it needs a data connection, this could be of some concern to some people.

Having said that, apart from the fact that mine still quits back to desktop when I try to play a trackIt won't start at all when my data connection is active

It's on the todo list to help users avoid roaming charges. As far as privacy goes, we've spent a LOT of time on this and committed to privacy in way that'd make you think we're guarding national security secrets We do the obvious stuff like encrypt all up/down data (all communication with our servers is done over https) but we also generate a 128 bit key for each user based off timestamp, salt and a few other things that's used to secure your anonymity. We have no way of going from that key back to anything personably identifiable. We never store your IP (in fact, it's even better than just not storing it, but more on that some other time). Even if someone breaks in (or physically takes) our servers, your embarrassing and secret love of Miley is safe with us

Thanks for the explanation. Will data usage be turned on or off by default? "Silently" having data turned on by default and allowing the user to turn it off later in the application settings may not be good enough for some people.

Probably the best thing to do is provide a first-run-only dialogue which will ask the user whether he wants data turned on or off, with a full explanation of the pros and cons. If the user chooses "Off" on the first-run dialogue, no data will have been sent.

The reason I say this is because I want to try and protect you against a backlash like that which has happened with the PR1.2 compulsory My Nokia registration. For some people, being able to unsubscribe or to turn off data later isn't good enough - they want to have never subscribed or sent any data.

I don't think having data on by default is a problem, at least not like the MyNokia was. People are not required to install the app. Having an option to turn it off is enough.
