My favourite MUSIC player is certanly Quasar ( http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ghlight=quasar )
it's fast and complete and manages very well the playlists (apart fro the little ussue with the OSK and the n800 :P )
I've tried all of the player in the pool, and this seems the better ( and it's lightweight too!)
my 200 cents xD

I'm a YouAmp user currently.
Edit: Installed Quasar..and..wow. I may be a convert.
The things I'll 'miss' from YouAmp will certainly be its small footprint (Quasar and required libs are what, 10meg?) and the Search function.
But quasar may well be worth it for its additional features and very good looks.
Thanks for the tip!

canola as it is reasonably quick. the two most important reasons for me are that it has nice easy car-friendly controls, and a quick easy way to play my library randomly.
i would convert but have not found anything which better suits my needs. the built in player would be great but it frequently hangs, uses all my cpu cycles, and the crawler drags everything in and is not configurable.

And your favorite player for .ogg files?
If I double-click an ogg file, it will play in mplayer, but just that one song. File > Open in mplayer does not show ogg files, so I can't make a playlist.
YouAmp forever says it's Updating Database but never finds any songs. I have only ogg files for music, so I don't know if it's a general problem with my YouAmp or if it's ogg-specific.
So I use Canola, even though it's a heavy footprint for an application I use solely for its music capabilities .
I'd be glad to know another program that played well with multiple ogg files.

Thanks for the info on Canola. All my music is in ogg as well, so I guess I will be using this app when the time comes, if it comes.

WIth the N900, the included media player is very nice. For music, it is perfect for my needs, well done, supports my NAS and looks good.
(For video, unfortunately, it doesn't play MPEG2/TS and FLV, so I need MPlayer for that right now)

Going back to my wife...YouAmp...if she will take me back
