Question KinAMP - Kobo version. Media player for Koreader

I developed a few months ago a music player for Kindle, now I decided to port it to Kobo.
It works as a Koreader plugin. Start from Tools menu->Kinamp.
If you listen music frequently, I recommend to assign it to the lower right corner in the Gestures manager.

It accepts MP3, OGG, FLAC etc formats and plays internet radio stations too.

I rebuilt the original Kindle app using the Kobo toolchain, I don't have a device to test it. Can somebody test it on his device, so I can add it to the official release? (I can't guarantee at all that it will work...)
Just copy the contents of the attached file to the Koreader folder.

Documentation and source code here. Note that the native GTK app was not ported to Kobo.

Nullsoft or whoever currently owns Winamp's trademark might object to what is clearly the Winamp logo greyscaled. Perhaps get Claude to generate a copyright-friendly homage, like a lightning bolt but in the middle of an ereader screen, rather than the original diamond enclosure.

The logo is changed in the final version (it's the girl which is already on the other screenshot) - but for now nobody objected even for my quite obvious Winamp inspiration (especially for the Kindle app).

Anyway, please report back if it works or not...
