I'm having some problems with s2p, It keeps on freezing up (especially when I try to do coverflow), and then closing. Am I just doing something wrong? or is this happening to other people. Sometimes it works fine, and i can do coverflow, open an album and change songs, but then sometimes, it will just freeze when i try to open a song. Other times i will just be sliding through the flow (either with a song playing or not) and it will hit an album and freeze, and it is not always the same album. Is there a way to fix this, or am i just running out of free ram or something? I have tried soft resetting and having more free RAM, but nothing seems to be working. Only programs I have open are ifonz and s2p.
BTW: I am using s2p v 0.40

iFonz and s2p are RAM intensive programs. on average iFonz requires 2.5 mb RAM and s2p needs about 5.5 mb RAM, from my expierence. together, thats 2/5'ths of the available RAM on startup. try closing iFonz an just running s2p. or find a player that doesnt use as much memory.

I have tried closing iFonz, and I have also tried soft resetting and just starting s2p to see if it works, but i sill have the same problem. I am beginning to see some albums that cause it to freeze (so it may be just specific files), but i don't want to have to delete some of my songs for it to work.
EDIT: Nevermind, it is probably not specific files (not positive though), as after doing a soft reset and having only s2p running, some of the albums it used to freeze on no longer freeze, but it still froze on a different album.

I am having another problem, and I think they are related, my programs keep closing when another one opens (i can't have more than 1 program running in my memory at a time, but it doesn't seem to apply to background programs like s2u2 or SPB Mobile shell), and I think that this thing that is causing all my programs to close, is closing s2p because of its RAM usage, but I have no clue what it is, and it has just started happening. Any ideas?

ive actually had this problem many times. i pm'd A_C and he told me that it may have something to do with...something (forgot what he said) embeded into certain album art and what-nots. ive since gave up on that program and started using a program called "audio Manager". its basically the same thing but it gives u the option of trimming songs and using them as ringtones, slide tones...etc. but u dont get that cool slide transition thingy...
