rok: I added a check to the system that will create the covers dir on mmc2 if mmc1 isn't working properly. Hopefully it works. It'll appear in the next version (preview10) on.

I am not having much luck installing it. It never creates a icon to start it with and it doesn't copy things correctly when installing. Here's the output from dpkg:
dpkg -i Urho-Konttoris-MediaCenter-1.0preview9.deb
Selecting previously deselected package mediacenter.

Unpacking mediacenter (from Urho-Konttoris-MediaCenter-1.0preview9.deb) ...

Am I missing something here? I have the python 2.5 runtime installed and I can even run it manually when I extract it to a directory with dpkg -X.

Indeed. Looks odd. Did you try installing it from the application installer?

Konttori,

I'm trying to load up 184 albums and get the following.

Hi,

Suggestion that to keep the thread cleaner, perhaps links to the latest and greatest versions be put only on the 1st post (by the author of the software) so that everyone can find the link easily, instead of links embedded in other posts, which can lead to confusion over which is the latest version of the software. Just an idea....

I updated the first post. Thanks for the tip.

It's because the albums were listed as "Unknown Album"...I deleted the ones listed as such, and had no issue.

This was from my iTunes library.

Thanks!
Latest version may solve it:

Unknown albums were those that it had problem in saving artwork retrieved from the net. Latest version *should* help in that respect a bit.
