I'm loving the new bmpx UI, enjoying last.fm integration and the radio stations, it's my favorite music player at the moment. :guitar:

Agreed. It was a little crash happy, but if you spend any time listening to online media it's definately the best player.

Indeed... Integration with web radios and Last.FM, is superb, and beats in this field all linux media players.

That's why it's my favorite media player. And it is not a Memory Hog like banshee , listen or even amarok.

I'll give it a try. I already really like Amarok and Exaile. I don't like Rhythmbox or Banshee, and Listen seemed to be endlessly buggy.

not too bad! i wish you could make the album art bigger in the Info area though. it'd be almost perfect. actuallly they should put the info area up top and the "artists" and "discs" area on the bottom.

i also noticed that when you refresh lyrics, it won't refresh to the newest track. :/

Does it fetch album art for you? I don't want to have to manually add in all my album art. Other than that, this player feels pretty nice, although I don't think it's working properly with my last.fm account.

it recognizes my album art that i already have in each of my folders.

Yer I think there is a bug with the album art but it does bring in a fair amount.

By the way: If you want to easily get the latest version 0.40.14 witch is not available on official repos, you can download a .deb on getdeb: http://getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=bmpx for 32 and 64 bits.
