Please note that this is an alpha release, the mediaplayer turned out to be a
bigger project than I expected



What's planned:

• Playlist creator and editor (stock implementation sucks).

All existing MAFW-based apps will work fine with this, the stock widget will open this mediaplayer, media-im-status-updater will fetch metadata correctly, etc...
To "replace" the stock player (if you don't want to do that, use the script below).
Place the binary in /usr/local/bin/

Code:

nano /usr/share/dbus-1/services/com.nokia.mediaplayer.service

Change /usr/bin/mediaplayer to /usr/local/bin/mediaplayer, note that this will cause mime_open to stop working until implemented.

BT headsets (with buttons) should work fine (tested with a BH-503).

To use alongside the stock player (tapping the stock widget will open the stock player):
Place the binary in /usr/local/bin/

QML files are to be installed in /opt/mediaplayer/qml/
I usually update the mediaplayer whenever I add something, so here's a handy script to update it (or install it)

Code:

root
apt-get install wget #if you don't have it installed.
wget http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/maemo/install_mediaplayer.sh
chmod +x install_mediaplayer.sh
./install_mediaplayer.sh

Bug reports expected (lots of them) and are welcome.
