This is FM radio. It was not ready for release 0.90 though.

I put OS 2008 on my N800 and fixed the mplayer sound issue. The new release 0.90.2 is available at http://mediabox.garage.maemo.org/download.html

Enjoy!

I have a problem where MediaBox hangs during "Looking for media files...". It seems that mplayer has a problem with creating thumbnails of some of my YouTube FLV videos.

Here is the output from ps:

Code:

~ $ ps -Af | grep mplayer
 3741 user       1884 SW  sh -c mplayer -zoom -ss 30 -nosound -vo jpeg:outdir="
 3742 user      18680 SW  mplayer -zoom -ss 30 -nosound -vo jpeg:outdir=/tmp -f
 3743 user      16496 SW  mplayer -zoom -ss 30 -nosound -vo jpeg:outdir=/tmp -f

Three "killall mplayer" wakes up MediaBox. After that everything seems to work but I get the hanging again if I restart MediaBox.

I am running OS2008 on an N800, and I do not see the FM radio icon on the bottom.

Any ideas what I could be missing?

I would assume it's still not ready yet

Exactly. Maybe it'll be ready for 0.91. It's not far away.

Here's hoping that playlist support is in a soon to be coming release ... ;-)

great job pycage this is a very nice media app. one thing i'd add is to seperate the paths in the settings for movies, pictures, etc. so that i don't see the album cover with my photos.

I cannot install Mediabox. The appmanager gives me the following error:

I get the same error when i download and install directly from the garage.

This looks like a broken download. Try downloading again, maybe using another computer. It could also be that the problem was on the server side (as we all know, garage.maemo.org isn't known for stability...). In that case, try downloading again later.
