<p><br /> I have been informed that the following apps have added support for Presto:<br /><br /> - BeyondPod Beta (not on Android Market)<br /><br /> - DoggCatcher<br /><br /> - PodTrapper<br /><br /> - Pocket Casts</p>
<br />
<p><br /> The Presto developer is a different developer from those applications. Those developers are not responsible for Presto's implementation, bugs, or cost.</p>
<br />
<p><br /> Presto is still in beta. Bugs are listed at the end of this description. Please e-mail me if you find new bugs. I apologize for the lack of updates; I bit off way more than I can chew this semester. Work is ongoing, but I can only spare a few hours at a time on some Mondays. Please be patient.</p>
<br />
<p><br /> Apps using Presto must be restarted after upgrading Presto.</p>
<br />
<p><br /> Download problems are a problem with the Android Market, not with Presto. See these pages for potential solutions:<br /><br /> <a href="http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.doggcatcher.com/node/843&usg=AFQj... target="_blank">http://www.doggcatcher.com/node/843</a><br /><br /> <a href="http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Androi... target="_blank">http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=57b5e3ef... /><br /> <a href="http://www.google.com/url?q=http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/deta... target="_blank">http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1996#makechanges</a></p>
<br />
<p><br /> For developers: See the home page for nearly drop-in code that replaces android.media.MediaPlayer, using Presto when available, or gracefully degrading to use the default Android MediaPlayer when not.</p>
<br />
<p><br /> Known bugs (please e-mail me if you find any new ones or any of these impact you too severely; I have no means to respond to Market comments). Asterisks (*) indicate bugs that have not been observed in a while; please e-mail me if you encounter them so I can confirm they are not fixed.</p>
