Re: N900 $510
Am 09.12.09 23:19, schrieb Mark: You can complain about reality all you want, but that's not going to change it. The reality is that NO ONE is paying $900 for an unlocked iPhone, and the unlocked price for an iPhone is far, far below what it will be for an N900 if when they make a deal with a carrier. Erm. Everybody is paying that price for an *UNLOCKED* iPhone. Subsidized ones seem cheaper, but probably aren't (depending on contract). So the iPhone *is* more expensive than the N900 *when* you buy an *UNLOCKED* one and don't want to be bound to a carrier. *IF* you want to buy a subsidized N900, well go complain to your carrier.

Hi,
I have at least 30 albums on my flash card that the built in media
player sees just fine. Canola2 only shows me 7 of them. There is
something messed up with the way Canola finds music.
Could you please tell us what kind of media do you have (mp3, wma, etc..) ?
It would be awesome if you send us any of this media files and your
/home/user/canola.db file, so we could investigate what is happening.
Same here: All my aac encoded albums aren't recognized by Canola2
(encoded with iTunes). The default Mediaplayer does recognize those,
but also has problems with the embedded tags and shows albums as having
a playtime of -1 second(s) - until the album has been played once.

If you need the file, I can send it to you.
And yeah, looks like it made it into canola.db:

Yes, Canola2, or actually LightMediaScanner (which is opensource: http://lms.garage.maemo.org/) don't have AAC/mp4 parser yet, in this case it's handled by audio-dummy parser that just use the filename. We have one developer working on plugins, so far he did asf (wma, wmv) and real media, he still have to do aac and few others. Any help is appreciated. Oh, sorry, I'm not a developer by all means. But if I can test stuff - sure, I'll do so. But at least that does explain why m4a doesn't work - I just wondered why nobody else wrote about that problem. And: Canola2 looks much much better to me than Canola1. Great work!

That's a distinct possibility, although I don't see how the flash card could be pulling so much current when the system is an idle state. I'm running off a SD card too and with bluetooth on and wi-fi connected to AP it lasts couple of days. Lucky you. When I'm connected to my AP at home (The white fonera AP), I'll get 1.5 days max, even if I don't use the device and just omweather does periodic updates.
