Always check this link for latest change history / version:

I couldn't find a thread about this excellent app so here it is.

I use my N900 as a video player very often and this app is the best gui for me.
But the latest 0.1-2 update changed so I had some questions to the developer...

1. Can it have kinetic scrolling? or at least keyboard scrolling?
2. The latest version plays the video straight away when clicked. (just resumes) I much prefer the original method of having a choice to start from beginning or resume. Was wondering why this was changed?
3. Would it be possible to have an option to sort the videos by name and/or last modified/created date?

btw. Now there is a 0.2-1 update.
It's now back to 0.1-1 original behaviour for start/resume.
Also, it has kinetic scrolling!
Did the developer see this thread?

Don't like it starts right away as well, feel its playing videos better with this version or maybe its the new FW Update, who knows?

There is always a possibility that the developer changed the mplayer launch parameters or something. (just guessing)

NEW UPDATE:
btw. Now there is a 0.2-1 update.
It's now back to 0.1-1 original behaviour for start/resume.

I would love to know the full change log..

Yes, I commited a new version (0.0.2) of SiB yesterday, with support for kinetic scrolling. Also the issue where the video started right after single-clicking a file should be fixed now. And the UI should look a bit better now.

Could you try to remove the previous version of qt4.6 manually and then reinstall sib? Also, which firmware version are you using?

Thank you. It's now much better.

Now to top it off, it would be great to have a sort function in the list. (By name, modified time, size etc)

Btw, is there something that can be done to fix mplayer's issue with pan & scan function? If you try to "zoom" in to video with W & E -keys the picture somehow scales right but not all colours. Some colours are left without scaling and it makes the video look very weird.
