If I'm not mistaken, Canola is actually in the normal maemo.org repositories, so that's why it's so slow right now. I could be wrong though, but I'm halfway through with the download, and I'm not canceling it to check the repo list. :P

Hi Konttori,

Actually while this works for a lot of users, at least in the bet we are avoiding it because we don't want photos to index maps, or some hidden stuff.. this was REALLY a serious problem in the first version and a lot of people complained, also this made the loading / database time go really high. For me, as interaction designer hurts to do that because I want the best experience for the user. But at the same time... if a bad thing happens people can be really mean (like on canola1)

We actually didn't have time to fully optimize it, but I think we will reduce the jerkyness, also there's some spots on the screen where we placed a special scroll that doesn't work the way it should (duh)

Rcadden : looks that the repositories still down : / or not working properly but they are Maemo's so we cannot "mess" with those servers, but for sure the maemo guys are working to put it back in full order it was like that yesterday.

Can some one start a torrent for the .deb file ?
Like they did for the new IT2008 os...

if I had it, I would.

In Settings, I have clicked on the 'view' icon on a folder that has images on my memory card. I saw the refreshing library message. From the main page, I hit Photos->My Photos and it says No Items Found.

Same with videos. I know that the internal Video Clips folder contain the Nokia N810 ad video but Canola can't find it.

Anything I'm missing?

One thing you are not missing, Reggie, is the .deb file.
Can you please upload it somewhere ?

Before it was at least attempting to download the file. Now in app manager, it's not even doing that.

Canola installation failed after about 20 minutes... will try once more and then give up till the servers are fixed.

Ok, for some reason, it's fixed! I wonder what happened? The only difference is now I'm at the office and my wifi connection is now off.

Marcelo, the thumbnail loading is not bad at all. It's not slow at all.

Anyway, first bugs:
1. when watching a video, lower down volume to almost zero, press pause, and the hit play. Volume seems to go back to mid-level.
2. Can't find a way to watch the video in full screen. double tap doesn't work.

Some comments/suggestions:
1. Please add in settings, delay in seconds for the image slideshow.
2. Instead of an 'eye' icon for adding a folder to the library, why not use a '+' and a '-'. I didn't get it at first what the eye icon was.

Reggie: My experience was similar. For some reason, it seems to be doing something in the background after it scans your folders that keeps it from displaying the results for several minutes. For those of you where its not finding your media, let it sit for a few and check it again.
