Great work. I like the stock media player and use it for playing radio programs I download, but there are a couple of minor things that bug me that maybe you can fix in your version. I'd like to be able to delete files directly from the recently played playlist and I occasionally accidentally set a file as my ringtone, so it would be great to have a confirmation on this.

And a bug, seeking doesn't work with my bluetooth headset (obviously this does work on the stock media player) the other bluetooth controls work fine.

Another bug: When the length of the song title or album exceeds half the screen, it goes under the album art, instead of text wrapping on its half of the screen

Amazing work (as usual), MAG!
A bug I found: I usualy listen to long mixes, and I noticed, that OMP does not handle songs correctly, if they are longer than 1 hour, seekbar is messed up in these cases, and time (both played, remaining and total) shows incorrectly.
Also, if Central European accented characters are present in a song's ID3 tag, they will show up as empty spaces in the playlist and will not play, instead OMP will start playing the first song in the playlist.

Maybe clicking on a song from the list opens up the song in both the stock player and OMP, leading to 3 windows opening?

Going back to one of the windows creates flickers in the screens of the Media Player windows (they are trying to sync?)
I can confirm the multiple windows bug. It appears to manifest when you press the song title more than once when selecting a track. One press is enough to make it play, but if there is a lag between track selection and playback, you're inclined to press again.

Oh I can also confirm the lack of a desktop shortcut, but that is a minor issue.

Code:
sudo gainroot
chmod +x install_mediaplayer.sh
./install_mediaplayer.sh --desktop-file
> add OMP shortcut

A thing I noticed is that the music from OMP stops to play the text tone, when a text comes in, then resumes music playback.

If you can remember, the stock media player did this (before PR 1.2 i think), but I just tried it with the stock media player and it doesnt stop the music (i assume Nokia fixed this bug). It just vibrates twice while the music is still playing

This is the libplayback policy system I mentioned on the first page, docs are quite crappy for it.
