I have an N-Gage, and I have oggplay. It wasn't until recently that I noticed oggplay with a new playback engine.
I would like to report some problems you may have noticed.
<Versions with new engine>
1.The song never plays correctly. It always skips 5 seconds from the beginning, plays for a second, and then starts with the skipping. This is repeated till the song ends.
<Normal stable/unstable versions>
1.On installing a new skin, all hotkey configurations are lost. Assigning them again doesn't solve the problem, the hotkey configurations are lost again once the application is restarted.
<An interface improvement suggestion>
Perhaps you can try to make the interface friendlier. On opening the application, I'm directed straight to the playlist, but with other media applications it's not the same. In fact, I find them better. What those applications do is that they display only the song name (playing) and they show a visual analyzer. There a nice background (skin) and as for the playlist, it is accessible later on pressing a button.
And without sounding like I'm sponsoring something, you guys should check out the UltraMP3 interface (from Lonely cat games).
Otherwise, the current skin is also very unique.
Thank you for your time

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
1. The playback problems will be fixed in the next release, 1.09b
2. Some skins have their own hotkey assignments, so when you use them you lose your original hotkeys. This is a real pain, unfortunately. The only thing I can suggest is don't use the skins that re-map the hotkeys!
3. We like the interface as it is :-) Besides with the right skin you get all the information you need and a visual analyser as well!
BTW Do you have a bluetooth headset?
