I don't want to set it as default as at home the original format is ok, but when I'm running it away from home, especially with my phone, I need to be able to select the player configured to re-encode without having to go to the admin web site with a browser.

Thanks for the work!
Trying to type fast, am supposed to be working at the moment.
Nope, I meant locally to the network, and not over the internet. So, I wouldn't need things like track pre-loading, but others may (will be put in anyway, as I already have the code written for it. Just need to integrate it.)
I'll get a test deb up ASAP.
Yep, really good news.
Same for me, I would love to be able to connect to my subsonic server (https if possible, with specific port) and play either single file or a full directory streamed form the server.
An important feature for me would be to have an option to select server media re-encoding, as I've ripped my CDs using FLAC and unfortunately my upload bandwidth is a bit limited for streaming FLAC.
Anyway, thanks for the work, would be happy to help and test (I'm a Qt developer too, mostly on desktop but have Qt Sdk ready to test on my N9).
By "full directory", does that include subdirectories?
Definitely need to get some usability testing for this in order to determine the best UI elements. I prefer the approach of:
artist -> album(optional: Play whole album. Clears Now Playing, and replaces with all tracks in album) -> track -> play track(all tracks in playlist cleared. Replaced with this track to end of album) -> track finishes -> will automatically play next track.
artist -> album (optional: add album to Now Playing) -> track (clicking adds to NowPlaying, and auto plays if nothing present)
The first one is already implemented as it's my preferred, but if it is the general consensus that the second approach is better, I'll re-think it.
Thanks.

https connection now working. Just need to create the nowPlaying page, and I think I'll upload a deb here. Girlfriend is out shopping today, so will do it when I get back from work.
Or, I could create a permanent now playing bar at the bottom of each page. Maybe both! I'll see how I feel about it later.
Any suggestions welcome, as always.
EDIT: Will test out the transcoding today too.

To the local network, streaming to your device will very likely be a consistent experience. No signal dropouts etc.
But if you're on your phone and on a train/bus etc, you're going to get frequent drops of your signal. So, whilst song one is playing, download song two instead of waiting for song one to finish and THEN downloading it. Then, when song one has finished, play song two from the filesystem.
It's one of the methods of overcoming the spotty coverage I get in my area (and I'm sure many others have this issue).
But that was just one feature example, given as an idea similar to what people should suggest and shouldn't be read too much into.
Sorry my wording is a bit off, in work at the moment.

Hi. I was wondering how's the project is going on? I can't get Aerofy to work with N900 or N9. Any progression?

Yup, sorry about the lack of movement. Work, life etc.
I would like to upload a deb after I wake (5:10am here). Not much in it, it's an older build because my dev computer is nowhere near me atm.
If some people could test it and get back to me regarding playback, playlists (playlists just are not working on my computer) etc, it'd be great. Also, let me know whatever you think is missing.
Be as critical as possible!
Could the people that want to test post here, so I can privately message the deb? Not quite ready for open testing.
Thanks,
Alex
