i didnt check the repo on the update, and in the uninstallation-menu it doesnt list a repo too...
but the version is 0.4.10. i assume it was from the ovi-repo?!
So I just installed the new version and here's a quick review:
Much, MUCH faster although I could use with smoother scrolling.
System seems to slightly hang while the program is in the background while playing a file.
CPU usage is fine.
If this is going to have folder browsing it's going to be my default player.
today i saw there is a new version! downloaded it, and voila, there is the "identify" feature.
it works pretty good, but its really intolerant as far as metal and rock goes
it wasnt able to recognize mudvayne-songs, let alone cannibal corpse or cryptopsy.
with mainstream-music however, its working pretty well.
We know, we know. It's not that it's not tolerant of one kind of music or another, it's that it simply doesn't know certain songs. The more popular the song the more likely it is we know it. We're working to expand the catalog a little faster than the current rate (which is somewhere on the order of 250 new songs a day).
it was not, the version my appmanager showed me was indeed 0.4.10
the version you linked to is 0.4.21!
are there any big differences? i think the main menu got much darker...?! and the identify-button received a subtle animation when its recording and identifying.

i didnt mean to bash or something, i already thought that the database propably is quite small right now
The new version is good. I like this player so far. It detected covers for most of the songs I have and that surprised me. I like portrait mode of it. If it had also landscape, would be better. Good potential.

oh, that was something i wanted to comment on too: instinctiv downloaded covers for a couple of songs that already had correct covers tagged into them!
not sure why it thought they didnt have one...
