I set down my n810 and fired up the latest version of YouAmp and had instant access to over 1200 songs that I keep on the tablet. This was a multi-generation happening so the uncles and aunts (my group) were satisfied with one collection I have of the 885 all time favorites of a local radio station, WXPN @ 88.5. I also have some more popular music that satisfied the nieces and nephews who ranged in age from 7 to 17.

Every one was quite intrigued with the search feature of YouAmp and that's what we used to control play back... If they didn't like the songs in queue all they had to do was enter a single word search term to generate a completely different list. That list would play until someone would remember another tune that the wanted to hear. They would then enter only as much info in the search that they needed until the song they wanted showed up, along with anything else that somehow also matched that criteria. They selected their song and the remaining songs on the new list would play after their song was finished. This went on for over four hours

There was remarks that the iPod could do this and the iPhone could do that but in the final analysis it was the N810 that came out of someones pocket, was set upon a log, and was ready to play with no wires, external speakers, or external power supply.

3 years ago the N800 that I paid $400 for would never have left my pocket. Because of the impending release of Maemo5, I was able to pick up an N810 for $150.
When I told folks that the N800 could be had for $50 bucks less than that, light bulbs went off over some heads . At that price buying one for a single purpose would not be outrageous and the thing is... this is just one of the single purposes that the tablets are very good with.

Your program rocks! (no pun intended)

Try "rm ~/.musicdb" - you will lose your playcounts and it will require a reindex but this should fix your problem.

Yukop, I'd venture a guess you're having the same trouble, give it a shot

However, on further reflection this has only solved the problem per-instance of launching Youamp. after closing the program it wont run without again deleting the database.
