Hi,
I was wondering if you have an advice about installing a good media player (mp3 and/or ogg) on SHR (unstable).

Thanks

Cesare Quarinto

Intone (should pull in the mplayer itself)

Its in the repository.

Are you using  SHR-U lite? The full image has intone preinstalled.

CQIT,

Also curious about MP3@intone, I hope it does not play MP3. Until all
patents have safely expired I would not want to touch MP3...

I know what you mean, but for the record, yeah, it plays both formats. The interface works quite well & it played files perfectly. Now I wish I hadn't lost my headset . . .

sometimes

probably half of my albums won't import because of hangs on certain files

i'm also having major issues with playback - probably 1 in 3 times of
hitting play, it freezes and mplayer has to be killed. whether that's
an issues with intone or mplayer i don't know, although it seems to
have got a lot worse recently so i'd guess intone - that's the only
one of the two that's changed

 Actually Mplayer plays the MP3 with the user installed plugin (libmad or eqvalent). Intone is just the frontend for Mplayer so no patent probs with it

I find that I get unstable performance sometimes related to access to the sd card (I'm not sure if its because I formated it to ext3).  Sometimes, the card becomes unusable until a reboot.

Recently, as I mentioned before in another email, the rules,yaml file was updated (from a opkg update, not from flashing the image) and it cause my headset to no longer be detected.  So for the time being, I've abandoned the player until this is resolved.

I'm still happy I can make phone calls.

Yes but we have to be careful that MP3 doesn't 'sneak in' somewhere.
The moment anybody is selling a FreeRunner 'capable' of playing MP3, the
patent guys have a case. 'Capable' can be a series of steps, including
installing some software, etc.
However, the moment those steps involve a resource out of control of the
seller of the FreeRunner (say a random Internet URL), they have no case.

Now with the vast pool of free software, what can easily happen is that MP3,
MP4 etc. 'sneaks into' the product. Then someone downstream forgets that it's
there, or it's very hard to remove, and falls into the trap.

Any MP3/MP4 etc. functionality should be kept clearly separated.
