Guest Paul [MVP] Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Ann from PocketMind dropped me a mail to let me know that PocketMusic, the music player for Smartphone, has been updated to V2! Full details can be found here, improvements include: 1) WMA playback (Windows Mobile 2003 or later required) with 10-band equalizer (Equalizer requires CPU operating at 200 MHz or more). 2) Crossfading and Gapless playback. 3) HTTP Streaming for MP3 and OGG (Shoutcast and Icecast Internet Radio Stations). 4) Alarm feature – wake up with your favorite music! 5) Sleep timer (stop playback after specified time) 6) Adjustable fast forward/rewind speed 7) Option to remember current playing position on exit and continue playback from that position after program restart. 8) Automatic playback pause on incoming calls. 9) Improved performance I'm downloading and checking it out now... will report back with thoughts ;) P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Paul [MVP] Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Boo, the app is unable to map my Dopod 585 hardware music keys... ;) P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Taoski Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 Pocket Music was and still is the best in my opinion. I listened to the whole Harry Potter series on it and the bookmarks function was a life saver. If i ever get rid of this Nokia in my pocket... i will definitely buy this again!

Guest chucky.egg Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 I think they may have left it too late. I had bad experiences with the original version, and since then have been more than happy with BetaPlayer. The ROM update for the C500 will also be out soon(ish), so I suspect that many users would try that first before buying this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DAK ATTACK Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 (edited) Guys, I purchased this version this morning and have started to put the app through its paces. So far, very impressed compared to the last builds. I have always been a WMA user so with Pocket Music now supporting this its better than ever. The timers seem to be working perfectly and the button configuration is working as it should on the C500. The XB bass kinda makes a difference and doesn't upset the playing of music. I haven't spent time yet on the playlists which I will test out later. So far thumbs up! Edited April 27, 2005 by DAK ATTACK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Scotty89uk Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 cool! looks great, nice idea to put on homepage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DAK ATTACK Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Well it's been a day of use with Pocket Music and so far no jurking or dodgy playback. The only gripe is that the XB bass function doesnt do much at all. Nedge2K, Pretty sweet skin, guessing its based on the TheSkinfactory artwork. I'm thinking about toying with making some skins as well, any advise dude i.e what is the worst part of the condtruction you found? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lewisleung Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Help! I just removed version 1.1 and installed version 2.0, but registration is required because of it said that the trial version was expired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Disco Stu Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Help! I just removed version 1.1 and installed version 2.0, but registration is required because of it said that the trial version was expired. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If you registered v1.1 you should have got an email with the upgrade offer to buy v2.0 for $9.95. Otherwise you will need to buy the full version. If you downloaded the trial version and couldn't use it then you need to contact PocketMind : http://www.pocketmind.com/contact.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest digger Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Well I'm impressed. One of my biggest complaints was that the audio did not stop when a call came in. This was most anoying since I use it to listen to audio books in the car. Very smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dr_StrangeTrick Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 (edited) Is it me or is this version Louder :?: I have to turn the volume down as its so much louder now I can hear my little E200 speaker crackling. I have also noticed that if I reduce the volume to 50% then restart my phone PocketMusic goes back to 100% :cry: Edited April 30, 2005 by Dr_StrangeTrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DAK ATTACK Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 Well so far not bad. Only thing that I don't like is if you skip too much the Program crashes and won't play the music anymore so you need to close the app....Pocket Music is very hungry for memory.
