For anybody not already subscribed to our blog, here are some videos that give you a taste of what you can do with Kinoma Play:

Also, I posted 101 Kinoma Play features and tips today.

As someone pointed out, you can get it for free by checking out with TrialPay. Or, just download Kinoma FreePlay.

$30.00 isn't *THAT* bad a price, except that I have paid $75 for media pprograms already for my phone, but I guess thats my problem

One question for your 101 list: you state Kinoma Play is the world’s second streaming podcast player (we made the first one, too).

Where does Pocketplayer fit into this? I am streaming a podcast as I type this, and am relatively confident that it beat Kinoma Play to market

Ill buy if you add XM support

Man, that sucks for ya. I mean this with no disrespect whatsoever, but i'm glad you posted what you did. Your info just saved me and maybe some others from spending $30 on an unproven app. Quick question for ya. Did you try the trial first and not have any problems? Or did you jump right in and buy it without using the freeplay trial? Thanks for your post. dschoenike

I have a Verizon XV 6800 with both a 4 gig & an 8 gig SDHC card

The Kinoma forum has posts from other users with exactly the same problems I am having.........

It appears based on the forums (I was looking at those prior to coming here) that the problems are with the mogul/6800 only and involve a corrupt file on the sd card. I imagine Kinoma will fix that rather quickly

No, like an idiot I bought it without trying it......

That is what they are claiming, but mine is freezing on a different file every time (& those files all work fine in other apps)

Thanks for the reply. I only asked cause i'm wondering if those of us who have used the trial with no problems, would also have no issues with the full version? Hope they put out a fix/patch for your issue soon.

I would guess you would be fine, but who knows??

If I have time, I may just out of curiousity try restoring my system to right before the full install (I always make a current BU with SPB Backup before installing any new program) & then install the trial just to see what happens.......

please post your results if you do restore, and try the trial freeplay. thx

If you have an SD card reader, you could attempt to dump off everything on your sd card, reformat it, install some music and try the full version.

Yea, I'll probably try exactly that today just to see what happens.

The player is kinda useless if it can't handle what is on my card however, when WM media player works just fine with it.
