Hi, Some remarks:
* coming back to your 'learn ahead of schedule' bug, did not simply the following happen? You graded a card 3 and it got scheduled tomorrow. When you chose 'learn ahead of schedule', you effectively start reviewing tomorrow's cards today, so this same card pops up again, even though you've already seen it today. If so, it's really a feature, not a bug :-) * for your sound problems, I've made lots of fixes to the sound handling for the upcoming beta, so see if the problem persists then. * scrolling speed: if your database is on a network, then the issue is not Mnemosyne's python code, but it's the internal sqlite/Qt C++-code. Anyway, for data integrity reasons, it's really not recommended to put your database on a remote machine (http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q5). I will probably change Mnemosyne so that it's forbidden to do so. So, put your database on your local machine, and it should fly :-) If you want to sync between different machines, use Mnemosyne's built in sync protocol.
