Removing and adding the widget fixed this issue for me
Until it broke again... and after pr1.2, we don't expect the use of workarounds.
Anyway, thanks nosa101, you are being more constructive and helping-hand this days, instead of "pure fanboy".
Seriously, THANKS.

Ok, I noticed mine wasn't working. So I took it off and put it pack on and it worked
media player widget working fine for me, with or with out browser open, and i turn off virtual keyboard because my n900 has a slide out keyboard?
so another pointless pr1.2 thread
can someone lock or delete it?
what a stupid troll answer. Widget works exactly as it should if you use it as a stand alone widget. But with other widgets running e.g. omweather; when you reboot, widget displays album art and song but playing it won't play the song unless your launch media player app all over again.
This is the bug ~
Another huge problem is when the play button gets stuck, its stuck for good. Nothing will change its mind, unless you remove it and add it again. Launch media player again and start the song again. Oh and another thing, now all of the other widgets (except calendar) are gone from your desktops. You have to re-add them.
Now my hunch is audio layer gets stuck somewhere when we reboot the cellphone with other widgets running. It expects some other applications to be using audio.
In fact this is a problem and has been the problem since i got my phone. This does not happen from the second you place the widget on your homescreen. Im not sure what the trigger is but something that is installed stops the widget from working left and right buttons work fine still but the play botton doesnt work.
ok scratch that just tested it again and its working again. last night tho it didnt work for ages.
To say there is no problem and this is a useless thread isnt true. To state pr1.2 in the thread is pointless.

Could this be anything to do with the video and sound thats played at boot time "nokia hands"? or is that to early ?

i agree to state its a useless thread is a silly answer to the problem. Widgets behavior is sporadic and must be looked into. Since it works perfectly well alone, i am gonna go through widgets one by one to see where it gets stuck.
Tested installed widgets one by one, trouble maker so far is Multi-calendar widget. Now clearly this would depend from user to user for the widgets they have installed.

how's this another pointless thread if many users have issues with the media player widget?
@leetut
Your possibly ledgit oppinion is overshadowed by a very cynical tone and simply odd statements, just because people didn't pay for the super-hyped update to their expensive device means they can't be disapointed with it? And I fail to see the nokia-hate in this thread which indeed is flooding this forum.
What ever your good samaritan reputation is your sure not embodying it in these posts.
I do confirm the media player widget is tempramental at best.
