Panucci-Nokia N8x0 Podcast Player 1

Posted by JD 04/25/2011 at 23:00

Sure I’m a little late, but I recently discovered the Panucci Resuming Player for Nokia N800/N810/N900 internet tablets. I’ve tried music playback programs and have always been disappointed since they didn’t support 30 second skip forward, backwards or resume after power off exactly where I was previously. Panucci does all these things.

Panucci UI

I don’t know how it deals with playlists (multi-part audio books), but even without that, it seems nearly perfect to listen to 30-120 minute podcasts.
As you can see above, there are 10 and 30 second skip forward buttons and and 10 and 30 second skip backwards buttons. Also, you can directly move the slider to a point in a podcast and adjust the volume. All the buttons are big, perfect for use while hiking or in a vehicle. There’s no need for the stylist to control this app.

Panucci integrates with gPodder, which is also supported on the Nokia N8xx line.

Install packages from here.

I really wish I’d found this 3 years ago.

    I started using this player a few weeks ago. I’m pretty happy with it. A few things could be improved in the version I’m running.

    I’d really like if

    1. it automatically added new files to the playlist
    2. manually adding files to the playlist supported multi-select – one at a time sorta … sucks
    3. it could be set to delete files that were played to completion.

    I could have missed a way to set these options, but the options screen only has 1 checkbox and nothing else.
