Content is not updated on mobile display

What is your environment?
* OS: openSuse 11.1
* Remuco version: 0.9.2
* Client device: Samsung 7350
* Player: banshee, audacious

What's the matter?
I can control both players using remuco on the mobile via bluetooth 2.1.
Installation works using the jad-file.
The playposition is only updated for the first 15 seconds, but then the
playposition freezes. I can still toggle with button 1 to see only the
cover art. Track name, volume, toggling shuffle etc. are only updated after
connecting to the player, but there is no update when something changes.
I already tried two customized clients:
1. remove some skins and sizes
2. optimization=off and manifest bluetooth uncommented

Any idea how to get it to show the actual track informations?

Best regards and happy eastern,
Vanessa

Please enable debug log (~/.config/remuco/banshee/conf), start the adapter 
again and connect with the client. 
After  a while (1-2 minutes), disconnect. Stop the player adapter and then post 
the content of the log file 
(~/.cache/remuco/banshee/log) here (attach it as a file). Without the logs I 
cannot say much here.

You may also have a look in the client log (menu->log).

While trying to install exaile I somehow destroyed the banshee installation (no 
music
output). The log was created with audacious 2. As you can see, after the 
updating of
play position (3 or 4 updates) I skipped to the next track.
I could not see anything strange in the log on the mobile.

First, sorry for the delay. I had not much time to work on Remuco the last days.

Looking at your log file I can't see any problem. The server regularly sends 
player
information updates to the client. Also there are periodic ping messages from 
the
client until the end, i.e. the client is able to communicate with the server 
all the
time. Looks like the problem is somewhere in the GUI part. Sometimes phones are 
a bit
buggy concerning images (cover art). You could have a try with changing the 
image
type to PNG or with disabling images at all (setting size to 0). These things 
can be
set in the client's option screen.

Hi,
thanks for the ideas. Unfortunately, neither switching off the cover arts nor
switching to png.:(
Using amarok, the GUI works for changing the rating, but controlling the rating 
does
not work: the log shows the warning

2010-04-18 09:18:43,787 [WARNING] [remuco-amarok   84] dbus error:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such method 'activateAction' in
interface 'org.kde.KMainWindow' at object path '/amarok/MainWindow' (signature 
's')

I could not find other strange messages. Probably, it's the mobile phone.

I am already happy to have the control. Thank you for the application.

Concerning the rating in Amarok, which version of Amarok do you use? Maybe 
there's
been a change in the DBus API I'll to adjust Remuco for.

Updating problem: most likely it's a special issue of your phone. Debugging 
JavaME
applications outside the emulator is almost impossible. You'd have to clutter 
the
code with noisy log messages until you find an indicator for the problem (PITA).

I'm closing this issue, as it I can't do much here.
