Some people seem to have issues that completely corrupt beyond repair a MMC card and it seems to be possibly tied to using the USB cable to transfer files to/from your PC and the MMC card in the Nokia. It's possible that cards experiencing this problem are not completely corrupted "beyond repair"

Okay, so I ripped out gstreamer and put in OSSO Media Server code. The thing I've noticed is that there's a distinct pause of about 1 second in my code when you start a new song playing. I didn't have this issue with gstreamer (though the other issues with gstreamer far outweigh the new problem.)

I agree that assuming mmc1 and mmc2 is potentially dangerous. In an answer to my original question on this subject, someone suggested that mmc0 and mmc1 were the correct names, whereas in my Scratchbox environment they are mmc1 and mmc2. Consequently, when I was implementing a scan for memory car
