    Well assuming Canola itself is working correctly. And that you have media on your SD cards. You need to go into options and then I think there's scanning or something like that. Then you make sure for the internal/external cards that the eye is showing (not an eye with a slash through it).

    It should scan for media on those cards and add it to its database.

    Hi Jbb :

    If is freezing, you may have a corrupted installation. But please make sure you have the eye with a "V" marked in the media library - audio folders , video folders , etc .

    If they are marked media will be listed. If this is not happening, then you have some bad installation.

    You have an option of unninstalling, (clean up) using the canola2-fix available in the application installer (maemo extras repository ) and then install again.

    If it still not working, please contact me via private message that we will help you fixing it, and you will be helping a free application to improve and avoid mistakes in the future.

    Thanks for trying the software...

    I am also having the same issue. I uninstalled using the clean-up and installed again. Same issue, song is there and tries to load but never starts playing.

    I seem to be having the same problem...I click a song (or podcast) and it just sort of stares at me. Can't tap on anything but I can hit the menu button to go back.

    Tmilr87 and Griff :

    Hi guys, can you try rebooting ? if it's not playing maybe is our media engine, that still old and needs the new one.

    if still not working, can you please run it on xterm using : canola -vv and then go to some media try to play it and send the messages to us?

    We really need this to nail this problem : /

    Since the Canola update I've had problems, too. It seem to go off into the wild blue yonder and never come back.

    Did an uninstall, clean-up and reinstall and it still does this.

    It's a shame since it was working so well under the previous version!
