Slowly but surely... So i removed my mp3 folder from the one to be scanned and it works. (Seems to choke on either a certain file or the number of files - no idea). Anyway Looks very nice except i got no sound... I have sound when i use mplayer by itself but not within mediabox - also the video plays just fine.

Ok, from the first look:
I like the UI, very simple and clean, good colors, but it is difficult to navigate through larger Collections of Files (I have around 8GB of Music on the Device) as the selection on Music is limited to selecting Albums currently.
Another thing which maybe could be improved is that the startup time is not so good, it takes a while finish the "Searching Media Files" step, although i guess the filelist is allready cached somewhere, because the first time it it took way longer.
So as a first conclusion: It looks very promising, keep up the good work.

Maybe the no sound issue is OS 2008-related. I will have to run tests on OS 2008. What happens when you attempt to switch the video to fullscreen? It might be another 2008 issue. But then, mplayer isn't quite ready for OS 2008 yet, as it seems.
The startup time is certainly a thing to improve. Lazy loading of thumbnail images would help, but the N800 (with OS 2007) was a bit too slow to make this beautiful. Hopefully it will get better with OS 2008.

I can get mediabox fullscreen in os2008, but there is no sound on the videos. Mplayer works fine (with sound) outside of mediabox in os2008 via the mplayer gui.
Apart from the lack of sound it seems like a very nice app!

I have just released version 0.90.1 (https://garage.maemo.org/frs/download.php/2733/mediabox_0.90.1-1_armel.deb), which addresses the gconf issue. The mplayer sound issue is under investigation.
The software now also sorta works on the Nokia 770 with OS 2006.

"ImportError: No module named gnome.gconf"
I went so far as purge v0.90 before installing 0.90.1. The _init_.py workaround didn't help. Any ideas?
thanks

Yeah I get the same thing, if starting with MediaBox from command line I get
Nokia-N800-44-4:~# MediaBox
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/MediaBox", line 3, in <module>
from mediabox.App import App
File "/usr/lib/mediabox/mediabox/App.py", line 1, in <module>
from MainWindow import MainWindow
File "/usr/lib/mediabox/mediabox/MainWindow.py", line 1, in <module>
import config
File "/usr/lib/mediabox/mediabox/config.py", line 6, in <module>
import gnome.gconf as gconf
ImportError: No module named gnome.gconf
But if you start the program with "MediaCenter" from the command line it starts as expected.
Cheers

There is a bug with gconf module:
https://garage.maemo.org/pipermail/p...er/000153.html
You can run MediaBox if you create manually (as root user) a __init__.py
file in gnome-python directory:
"touch /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gnome/__init__.py"
Cheers.

Yeah your right sorry 
I was looking at the symlink for MediaBox and didn't pay attention to where it was linking to I thought it said MediaCenter, and I have never used UKMP so I didn't know what it looked like
Cheers
