Tag images with people's names (from contacts)

Posted on 2010-03-09 20:50 UTC by Oskar Welzl. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Media.

You may want to tag images not only with geo-information and keywords. You may also want to add information about people who are in the picture. This way, you'll later be able to perform a search like "Show all photos of Harry" or "Show all photos of Harry and Sally".

The most natural way to do this is to take names from the built-in contacts database, so there'll be a connection between your contacts and the images showing your contacts.

Firefly client

Posted on 2010-03-09 21:19 UTC by Ad de Jonge. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Media.

On my home-network I run mt-daapt / Firefly mediaserver. Available clients are: iTunes and my good old SoundBridge. It would be nice to have a client on my N900 to play content served by Firefly.

Camera "burst mode" or series of photos

Posted on 2010-04-07 03:21 UTC by Mathias B. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Media.

In addition to the "Camera timer for taking timed shots" brainstorm, I miss another feature I used to have in my ancient Nokia N80. There seems no possibility to take more than one photo at a time. Each picture needs separate user action.

automatic rotation of camera photos

Posted on 2010-05-28 11:11 UTC by Michael Becker. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Media.

Today when I went through my photos I wondered why photos wich are taken in protraitmode (e.g. device held vertically) are not rotated automatically using the build in accelerometer of the N900?

This could be a great feature.

RDS and PTY interface and player integration

Posted on 2011-01-07 06:16 UTC by nemo nowhere. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Media, User Experience, Devices.

N900 is currently capable of sending "Nokia" as RDS station name. I suggest that we expand this functionality so that it can send all types of RDS fields and PTY codes and make it into a general API.

Secondly we should enable media players to broadcast RDS info from mp3 filename or name tags.

Eventualy some one could use the interface to send sms or caller id while FM transmitter is in use.
