Looking at the source, switch to QMaemo5InformationBox instead of using QProcess to display notifications.

(I might edit this post to add more as I look at all of it)

Re: [Announce] QRadio
 
first, thank you for taking charge of what a lot of people was asking but no one was making.

second, a few bugs that could be solved, sound is not playing in silent profile (a classic bug) and you could show a banner when headset is not plugged (something like "plug the antenna on 3.5mm jack" or simply "plug the headset you smartass")

and third, few request, could this be themeable? if not, replacing a background with an image instead of solid color and an option to change font color could be the trick.
an option to change font of menus and freq. display separately, as the digital font looks good for freq, but not so for buttons and rds.

ok, that's all for now my friend, keep the good work and thanks again

hmm
v4l2-ctl --all -d /dev/radio0
reports stereo even when mono is selected.

Does Qt offer swirl button/knob?

Could you confirm what you mean by "works good" have you had the radio working for more than say an hour without it going silent and then refusing to play again?

Does the RDS etc work correctly?

As I can't can never seem to get the radio to work for more than 15 mins and the RDS seems a bit hit and miss.

For me at the moment this is great work so far but still "work in progress" as I find the old FM Radio more reliable but this is looking very promising.

After quickly reading these:

could it be that you can forcemono only before evoking start()

start() and stop() are not working. Radio starts as soon as I create the object, and calling stop doesn't shut it down. I have tried not to call start() and version 0.1.0 works without that call, but I left it to match the documentation.

You could make it transparent to the user, or you could add a "Switching frequency range" banner.

I was thinking about a QProcess that does this:
Code:

echo 'echo 3 > /sys/blahblahblah/region' | root
and calling it through a menu action, but still I need to know that doing that works,

Yes, after use input from mic is disabled. It works as soon as you plug in and out nokia headphones once.

@gionni88
First, thanks for the app. When it works, it is definitely nice (especially with RDS).
Problem is, mine has been shutting off randomly after about 5-15 mins. of use and sometimes refuses to start properly (starts but has no signal and won't play anything.)
I've noticed that the BT will go off and I think that is the problem. I'm thinking that something is going wrong with it keeping the BT on or something.

Other than that, it works well and is quite nice. I look forward to the updates. Thanks again.
