Just read through the entire thread and gotta say that the dev response on this app is AWESOME.
Would like to add an additional vote for browse by folder, would definately replace default player if Instinctiv had that feature.
I noticed nobody mentioned anything in regards to possible shake to control integration. There's an app for the default media player called "Shake 2 Control" where shaking the N900 side to side would skip to next track, and shaking it towards you would pause the track. It also has a nice feature which prevents it from activating if the proximity sensor senses something (i.e. N900 is in your pocket). Problem there is that none of the features are configurable, so you can't change shake sensitivity or disable the "pause" function or somesuch (I only really need next track). Apparently source code for that is here: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=539997&postcount=7
Would be nice to have just a checkbox somewhere for "shake for next track", even better if its configurable, but not too picky about it =P
In regards to volume/camkey for playback control, qwerty12 wrote a closed app for default media player called "Extended Locked Media Player Control" which does stuff similar to what people were suggesting. Not sure how he did his magic, but just some food for thought. Code is closed cause he was completely pissed at the community/Nokia, though.
Anyways, just good to know that someone is actively working on providing a GREAT media player application, will keep tabs on this project as it definately seems promising.

This version when installed on a clean device (no files from previous versions left on board) will pull user album art if ii is in a cover.jpg file stored in the albums directory.
Other formats and schemes may work but this^ is what works for me. cover.jpg may supersede embedded art or it may not even look at embedded art, IDK. All my albums have a cover.jpg image.
Some of my songs have a different image embedded however, only the cover.jpg is shown.
That's all I got.
When you first start Instinctiv give it some time to find your art, index, and whatever else it does. Closing mid process seems to cause more directories and files to be created then needed.
BTW, the following image shows what they are apparently working on. Maybe we can give this thread a break if our issue is listed. No need to state it again and again.

Sorry it took me a while getting back to you, I wanted to fully test the latest .deb for issues.
