Found a small problem I have never noticed before.

If OMP is running in the background, and you try to open media player (eithier via a QBW or app menu etc) a window opens and tries to load. Eventually after it giving up you end up at the task switcher.

Surely the desired outcome is to switch to the OMP that is running?

Thank you for adding in the pause/resume feature for headphones, works very well.

I think I would perfer pulling the headphones to lock the screen.
I would use the media player widget than open/close OMP myself.

I just noticed this useful feature was removed. (I think I was the one who requested it). I really do find this useful since I tend to add music to my phone a large directory tree at a time from other sources and then want to remove a song I hate when I encounter it later while randomly playing an artist or my entire collection. Is there another easy way to find and delete the song in this situation?

Since you and others object to it (for safety reasons I assume?). Can we make it an optional feature disabled by default in settings? Please?

BTW, I love the new pause on bluetooth headset disconnect feature!

As always, thanks for all your hard work!

Seems to be similar problem in all QT apps.
I think QT has something to do with the Default Lockscreen rotating as mentioned here, too!

It's a hildon-desktop shortcut which turns off desktop composition, the status bar is therefore not redrawn until you change windows or toggle the key again, and it might mess up the current active window till it redraws.

I tried with an older build and it works as it's supposed to, so looks like it's OMP's fault. I'll try to track down when the regression was introduced.

If someone already knows which version was the last working, please share here or help by installing a few older versions and trying them out (downloads are at http://maemo.org/packages/view/openmediaplayer/; look for "Package imported" events).

I was thinking about adding some configuration for context menus (and extending them with a few other options), but I have not yet been enlightened with the simplest way to organize settings. If it keeps taking so long, I think I'll just throw in a checkbox soon.


An update has just arrived to the repositories:
  • Title of "Now playing" window is set to the current song when switching to the task navigator.
  • Added an option to lock the player in portrait or landscape.
  • Fixed the video window not staying in landscape.
  • New translation: Ukrainian by int_ua.
  • Updated translations.
Orientation locking might look innocent, but it required modification of almost all files, so look out for strange behaviors. If you're using Hildon's forced rotation, don't forget to blacklist openmediaplayer.

Thanks for another great update, gdizzz!

BTW, small question. What about things like "subtitles support" for stock media player? Are they relevant to OMP in any way, or just totally incompatible? We have few specific, "mediaplayer support for <...>" packages in repos.

If they're compatible, how to use them properly with OMP (like subtitles)?

I think "mediaplayer support for <...>" is more like "MAFW/Tracker support for <...>", so those packages should simply work. If you happen to find some incompatible add-ons, I can take a closer look.

I just tested subtitles and they seem to do fine. Are you just asking for the future, or do you have troubles getting them to work?
