Feature request- add an option for playing speed (slowest, slow, normal, fast, fastest )
I myself like slow speed for some songs and fast for pop songs
hope it won't be a difficult task..
Thanks

Could you rephrase that, I don't understand.
Does it mean "Mussorgsky cannot fix this problem either", or "this is a problem since Mussorgsky stopped working (?)" or....?

And: how can we fix the tracker issue?

Neither issue is really a problem with Openmediaplayer.

tracker-process multiple entries problem is common. the recommendation I had seen was to use "touch filename.extension" to change modification time, causing tracker to reindex the file. tracker-process -r should work. only other recommendation i have seen is to remove the tracker folder as a kind of last resort.

Mussorgsky is seperate issue. Removing databases causes album art assigned by it to be lost and need reassigning. As mussorksky isn't working (updated bing api broke functionality) you can't reassign them.

Man, I just love when I post about an issue and I'm told "your problem is not a problem". I'm about to start a little rant about this and barely holding back.

and you also said it didn't solve the not-a-problem for you, right?

tracker-process -r should work.
it did not, as stated above.

only other recommendation i have seen is to remove the tracker folder as a kind of last resort.
which folder exactly?

thanks f clarifying.
i wasn't even thinking about the cover art, since it's always been a total mess. approx. 1/2 of the cover art for my music is stored in the right place in the filesystem, only about 1/4 of the collection has the correct covers displayed in MP. 1/4 all have the same two or three, wrong album covers.

wouldn't this really be a case for fixing in tracker? just asking.

I'm not telling you it is not a problem, I'm telling you the problem is not with omp. Forget the mussorgsky stuff, it's just a little extra information about the consequences for those who care about it.

AFAIK, stock and omp both rely on tracker to keep an index of the media files on the phone. When you get the little banner about indexing the files, it is tracker that is doing the scanning. The command given is suggested all over the board and so that is why it was suggested. First result for "n900 tracker duplicate" in google: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=76086

Have you moved files from a previous location:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=568768&postcount=4

The directories tracker makes use of are listed in the output of tracker-process -r. It also uses ~/.config/tracker to store settings in a file called tracker.cfg.

edit: and yes, touch did cure my problem picture in gallery.

especially after using OMP to play videos, i often found my battery is draining because of pulseaudio stuck on around 22% cpu usage all the time. i have to kill pulseaudio process to stop the intense cpu usage. anybody had this experience too? is it linked with omp or can be another pulseaudio issue?

@gidzzz: when you push new version of OMP to extras-devel? There are two (I think important) commits in git: bluetooth resume and fix for long startup .
