About "Retrieving information on the new media files" notification: MAFW sends notifications about updates quite often and OMP already ignores some of them (with 0 items remaining), but apparently it's not enough. If you have a problem with the notifications popping up without a good reason, run "openmediaplayer" from terminal and if one of those notification appears, look for MainWindow::onSourceUpdating and post here your values of progress, processed_items, remaining_items and remaining_time (or the whole terminal output).

I can't see anything wrong with your screenshot. Did it also disable launching the default player by its icon? What's the output of

Code:

ls -l /usr/bin/openmediaplayer

entered in the terminal?

I guess the only way to know is to try. AFAIK the stock player does unicode right, so there might be a different cause.

   from /usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4

I'm quite puzzled by this one. musicwindow.cpp:906 resolves to

Code:

playlistModel->item(2)->setData(tr("%n song(s)", "", recentlyPlayedCount), UserRoleValueText);

so the first thing that comes to mind is that there's no item at row 2, but upon examining the core dump it looks like it was already accessed 8 times and it suddenly failed the 9th time.

Although I have not yet determined the root of the problem, I have improved playlist listing and as a result the problematic line will be called many times less often (once per update of automatic playlists, and those are now triggered in a smarter way).

Unless I missed something, everything that is not a letter or a digit gets stripped before being looked up. "OperationalError: (1040, 'Too many connections')" at the end also makes me think it's just an overloaded server.

One thing I noticed, why is there a save playlist option in saved playlists?
Surely this should be rename playlist like in the playlist menu.

"Save playlist" in the playlist browser has a different purpose. "Save changes" might be a better name, because if you modify a playlist, changes are discarded unless you choose to save them using that button (BTW I'm planning to make it automatic or at least show a confirmation on exit).

I also tried to rollback to earlier version to avoid this behavior, but repository.maemo.org gives me 404 :( I think this bug was introduced about a month ago.

It should be fixed in the next release. If you can't wait, I have attached the last version without this bug.

Hi, I'm trying to use the m3u video list feature, but with no success. It tries to play the video as it was an audio (sometimes the first frame of the video appear in a new window that closes soon after), then fails, goes to the next and the process repeats until I give up.
I make my playlists with VLC from easydebian (scanning a podcasts folder created with gpodder) and it works perfect with kmplayer, except it doesn't recognize keystrokes from my bluetooth headset as mp does.

Thanks.

Are you trying to open the playlist directly in OMP? Currently video playlists can be opened only with a dbus call, so to make use of it, you need an appropriate application (like a file manager or gPodder).

Another thing worth mentioning might be that OMP doesn't detect media type when streaming and it defaults to audio in case of M3U.

I've been closely watching the update notifications and sometimes they were indeed appearing unnecessarily. If they're still annoying you after today's update, let me know and include the part of the terminal output which contains MainWindow::onSourceUpdating.

Nothing big and shiny this time, but enough improvements, bug-fixes and updated translations have accumulated to provide a new package.

Holding previous/next in the video window rewinds the movie.
More efficient updates of the playlist list.
Keyboard shortcuts for next/previous should work again.
Added an option to add all songs from one playlist to another.
Autosaving after editing a playlist.
Made library update notifications less sensitive.
Disabled removing and rearranging songs in uneditable playlists.
Fixed "Add songs to a playlist" adding one duplicate song.
Fixed rearranging songs in the playlist browser causing songs in now playing to be moved at the same time.
New translation: Portuguese (Portugal) by joaoheitormarques.
Updated translations.

hi guys, installed latest update and everything is working very well so far..only two remarks about the translation to portuguese: i am really thankfull to the person who did this, its very well made, only imo as a portuguese native speaker from Portugal, the string «Tocando agora» is corect portuguese, but not common, it should be «A tocar agora», or as it appears in all players that i can remember, «Em reprodução»; but its just a detail, teh other is the text «Adicionar músicas à lista de reprodução actual» doesnt fit the button either in portrait or landscape, as well as «limpar lista de reprodução actual» does not fim inm landscape its button, so i suggest changing «lista de reprodução actual» only by «lista» or «lista actual». just some sugestions, anyway thank you very much and well done!

Hi,

I've been using OMP for several weeks now and I keep having the same problem; flac files aren't indexed (over 80% of my music is flac), so I need to play those through the file manager.

I've tried resetting the tracker and rebooting, but the issue persists.

Thanks, keep up the good work!

Hi Gidzzz any chance of auto playback and auto stop when headphone is plugged in and removed??!! We already have deamon which pause/stops the music when headphones are removed any chance we can have when headphones plugged in music starts playing please!

AFAIR you don't need the headphone daemon any more, OMP has this built in. Also unpauses the player on connection.
I uninstalled the headphone daemon when this arrived three or so updates ago...

Also the update seems to have fixed the tracker messages.
I don't get the notification, while saving Leafpad files or taking pictures.
Thanks.

I implemented auto pause OMP when bluetooth or wired headset is disconnected. This feature working without external daemons (like headphoned) and is already included in last OMP.

And if it's hard to make a line short enough for its button, it can be also broken into two lines.

A few days ago I reset my database and Vorbis files were ignored until I reinstalled Extra Decoders Support (if it doesn't work after that, make sure Ogg Support was reinstalled in the process too). I'm not sure about the cause, but I blame an update for Tracker a few CSSUs back.
