MediaBox Media Center v2011.05.08

Nice to have Mediabox back in action, especially with portrait mode.

Perfect for my uses, but some bugs are quite obtrusive.

1: System/App. volume are not linked. 2: Audio skips when screen dims to black.

This is one of those apps that could be a 5 star app if a few of the bugs got fixed. Unfortunately, the volume bug is hard to live with since you have to readjust the volume after every song. I also wish the RDS would cycle through the song and artist. Every time I look at the radio to find out the artist it just says MEDIABOX. Even if it's not per the RDS spec, there could be an "I agree" option to allow for this. The user interface is user friendly and playlist setup is nice.

Don't know if it's just me or what, but everytime i use the online radio (shoutcast) in this program, the space in my roots reduces gradually. After downloading this app, i had 57mb in my roots, and that was 4days ago. 2days ago, it was 51mb and when i checked it today, it was 45mb.

Needs some improvements; the UPNP feature is extremely useful and well implemented (however, it needs work too).

Good to see mediabox on the N900; it was an app I used heavily on my N800. One feature that I liked on the old version which I can't seem to find on the new one was the ability to delete playlist entries from a selected point to the start or end of the playlist. Apart from that it seems pretty solid from what little I've had chance to use it so far. Regarding Bobby's comment about volume, it can be adjusted with the system volume control (tap in the status area at the top and it pops out with other menus). There seems to be a problem though, as the volume resets after each track; I think this might be a system-level issue though, as it's the same in Panuccu. With both, just tapping on the volume control (even without moving it) brings the volume back up.

this app still has alot of work and from my testing it not extra material.

Its slow, and very unresponsive. even when i tried playing some tracks. the volume was very low and i could even find a way to increase it. anyway nice to have an alternative player. it just needs more work.

only plays one video at a time :(
