BeyondPod 2.8 released

A new Public release of BeyondPod - Free, Open source RSS feed reader and podcatcher - is available.
Thanks to all of you who supported BeyondPod with suggestions and donations. We could not have done it without you!
Here are some of the new features in v2.8:
* There is now a way to view a summary of all "unread" items across all feeds in a given category.
* Added settings to start automatic updates on Startup and on Opening of a feed
* Added a link to Launch the BeyondShcheudler from within BeyondPod. BeyondScheduler is a companion application used to schedule various tasks such as Bluetooth On/Off and Wi-Fi On/Off (on some HTC made devices) to be executed at predefined time. BeyondPod also internally relies on the BeyondScheduler for its own scheduled updates.
* Added support for password protected feeds. You can now enter username/password in the feed properties
* Added a global setting that allows you to hide the "Read" feed items in Content View. A nice side effect of hiding the "Read" items is that the feeds render faster because the number of items is (much) smaller.
* Changed the functions of left and right D-pad keys in the "Feeds" and "Podcasts" views. Left key now always navigates to the built in player (if there is anything to play) and the right key navigates to the last feed content view. There are also dedicated "Go to Player" menu items in both views
* When generating unique feed names, instead of PCXXXXX.MP3, the file name pattern is now Feed NameXXXXX.MP3. This makes the podcast file name a bit more predictable and also by changing the feed name, it gives you some a control over the podcast name.

Mort player 3.31b75 (BETA)

It's an MP3/Ogg player which is optimized for the needs on a Pocket PC.
That's (among others) big screen buttons, simple playlist update from the contents of certain directories, and support of hardware buttons.
MortPlayer is freeware, i.e., you can use it without paying.
The target was originally to create a simple player, which "simply plays the music" and doesn't nag me every time I add or remove some songs (playlist management).
But since back then, the player growed a lot, and by now does almost everything you'd wish from an music player...
Included features:
All basic functions (Play, pause, skip track, spooling, ...)
Supports:
-MP2, MP3, Ogg Vorbis, and WAV (thanks to MAD, libovd, and Green Software...)
-GSPlayer plug-ins (e.g. for MIDI files)
-Playback of files on the net, e.g. http://foo.bar/mytrack.mp3 or serversharepath rack.mp3
-Shoutcast and IceCast streams
-PodCasts and online playlists, e.g. http://foo.bar/playlist.m3u
-WinAmp and MediaPlayer playlists (M3U, PLS, ASX, WMP, read only)
-Native playlists (MPL, read and write)
Equalizer (only MP3), sound effects
Bookmarks (memorize positions in songs or audio books)
Auto continue from position and/or start playback after restart
Big screen buttons, easy to tap with your finger (at least in most Skins)
Assignable hardware buttons (all buttons, almost every function)
Screen saver (switch off display after some time or on button press) with optional button lock
Fall asleep timer
Alarm clock
-different wake times for each day of the week and a one time alert
-the player doesn't need to be running
-play a special file and/or continue current playlist
Optional volume change on start, exit, and alarm clock
Automatically pauses when doing a call (Phone Edition)
Display of ID3 (V1.0-V2.3) and Ogg tag informations (track name, artist, album, year, track no., cover), as well as external cover images per track or path
Add your favorite folders and playlist to Favorites. This enables you to choose them easily from a list in Open dialog or skip between them with the press of a button. You can even automatically include all subfolders. I.e., skip easily between all folders of StorageMy music or wherever you put your audio files.
Changer Mode: Automatically skip to the the next path or directory of your favorites when one is finished. Or shuffle between all directories.
Simple file selection when adding new files
Skins and Screens
-Full Skin support, you can decide for all elements if, where and how you want to show them! (sorry, own format only...)
-Multiple Screens (Easily switchable displays contained in one Skin)
-Extended screen switching support: Switch easily between a selection of Screens from multiple Skins
-Fullscreen support for Skins (no title and/or menu bar, e.g. for a car screen)
-"Always on top" option for small windows, thus allowing a small track display or similar on top of your navigation program
-You can turn off images to save memory and CPU
-User defined Playlist Font (or Skin default)
File associations (start with double click on e.g. an MP3 file)
User defined startup action (Changer Mode, recent playlist, update playlist, continue last track, ...), repeat and shuffle mode
Write informations about the currently played track in a file or append it to a logfile
And many more settings
Attention updaters: There's a "relative volume" now, which can be modified with the volume bar. Due to this, the preamp slider isn't required any longer for many users. I.e., you should set "Skip volume and preamp" in "Handling" to "No" and check "Relative volume" in "Program start" if you want to use it. Or simply use the Wizard...
Changes since V3.3 (please check the forum for changes between betas):
- Settings extracted to separate program
- AVRCP support (buttons on BT stereo headsets)
- Audiobook option in the favorites. Click the "?" next to it for details. E.g., the last position is memorized and stop doesn't modify the position.
- New alarm clock options: increasing volume and repeating of alarm sound file
- "Relative volume": Modifies the volume relative to the system volume
- Reworked the options for screen toggle, now more easy but still powerfull
- Sort playlist by filename, entry title, date, or ID3 tags - also immediately when added (settings, in "Shuffle/repeat" or "Open")
- Several modifications and new options to ease the use of playlists and favorites, e.g. selection of start song, faster adding of single tracks, automatical activation of Changer Mode, ...
- Fixed several display bugs, esp. on VGA devices with WM5
- Fitted dialogs to work with square screen devices and sometimes look better with "real VGA"
- Modifications for skin designers, e.g. square screen support, volume up/down, spool buttons, ...
- Easier translations
- Some improvements regarding stability and speed
- Several other (mostly minor) bugfixes
CHANGES
-SOME BUG FIXED......
-SUPPORTS ALPHA BENDING IN SKIN.......
- AND MUCH MORE ERRORS FIXED...

what is this ..is this a skin or a new player..please clearly specify

its a new beta version of an existing music player (maybe the best player?)
The original poster appears to have confused things by adding their own skin to the post to make mortplayer appear like S2p

Music tab

My music tab doesn't seem to be working as it should.
I have lots of music CDsloaded onto the storage card, and they show up when searching in the library, but I can only get a single album cover displayed on the TouchFlo page at a time.
Finger-scrolling up or down keeps the same album cover, but just changes through each trach.
How do I get to display and scroll through ALL the different albums?

I dont think you can scroll albums at that level, you have to go into library and use the album tab there to choose your album [and there is a picture of each front cover displayed on that list if you have it loaded - then scroll tracks on that album by swiping the front page
If you have a playlist with all different artists/albums on it will display the corresponding album cover, but the credenza album thing is purely an iphone feature as far as I can tell. Someone may write something for it at some stage, but dont hold your breath!

Yes, that's how it seems to be.
But looking at several demos of the Touch HD and TouchFlo 3D on YouTube, they show several album covers stacked up, and finger-scrollable just like the photos.
How do the demos show multiple album covers, when both you and I seem to be displaying only one cover at a time?

My HD shows one Cover for each Track. Try to make a single folder for every album. My HD shows one cover for all files in a folder.

So it isn't possible to flick through albums on the TouchFlo screen to select albums, it appears. I have to go into the library , select albums, and then scroll up or down.
Yes, I can see that works easily! 1 - 0 to the Ipod!!

there have been a few threads on this (though I haven't done anything about it yet as I'm still playing with other bits of the phone LOL)
from memory, a work around is to put a jpeg of the album cover in the folder - but I'm sure that there was also a more elegant solution!
or I may be just completly mis-rememberring it (in which case sorry!)
a search on coverart or album should hopefully get you in the right direction
