---++ Welcome!
You've stumbled onto the homepage for the PyqPlayer project. This site is under construction right now, but check back in a few days and we should have some more information for you.

PyqPlayer is an easy to use media player front end for the Sharp Zaurus. 
PyqPlayer provides a user interface much like a portable MP3 player. 
PyqPlayer allows you to:

   * Browse your music by artist, album, genre, and song title
   * Browse video files
   * Manage multiple playlists
   * Shuffle play playlist
   * Interface designed for for one handed operation - can do most operations with just the jog dial or d-pad and ok button

The philosophy behind PyqPlayer is that "desktop" style media players 
(such as XMMS) are not well suited to handheld use. They can't be 
operated quickly or one handed. Interfaces on portable MP3 players 
like the iPod are much better suited to a handheld like the Zaurus. 
PyqPlayer's purpose is to provide just such an interface.

PyqPlayer is strictly a "front end". PyqPlayer does not contain any 
A/V codecs but instead relies on existing "command line" media players 
such as madplay and mplayer. This modular approach makes it easy to 
upgrade back-end media players or integrate support for new ones into 
PyqPlayer.

PyqPlayer is written in Python and uses PyQt to integrate with the 
Qtopia environment. The name PyqPlayer derives from Python Qtopia Player 
and is pronounced "peek-player".
