Uninstalling the old Canola2beta1, updating my repos and installing the beta2 worked fine. My impressions are quite positive. I haven't been able to exercise it with any streaming media but seems to play local media smoothly. There is some frame dropping in video when you change the sound level with the hardware keys, but it keeps audio sync so it is a minor thing. One somewhat important issue is that when playing an album, both the buttons for next track and previous track actually make it go to next track. Seems like a small "oops" slipped in. Overall, keep up the great work. Even if it isn't open source, it is nice that you are working with the community and are very responsive to user feedback. Looking forward to all those Canola plugins. Also looking forward to a Carman for OS2008. /Mike
