Used permissions:
Phone state: Used to pause during a call. Otherwise it would only be muted by the system.
Wake lock: So the playback isn't stopped when you turn off the screen. Also for some optional features like disabling the auto screen off during playback.
Disable keyguard: In case you only want to use the app's lock screen. (And not return to the default one afterwards.)
Write/delete external storage: For some internal files in \.MortPlayer, e.g. cached folder covers from ID3 tags and track order lists.
Internet: Ads (AdMob)
Boot completed: To reschedule the alarm clock after boot.
Tasks: For "StopService" activity, to avoid the system returns to player afterwards

So so Lots of features but confusing interface. Needs a volume boost button, for books recorded with low volume.

Minor bug, otherwise great Great program however, with a recent cyanogenmod update, audio from this app comes out of right earpiece only. This is the only app effected. Dev email doesn't seem to be working to report the issue.

I love automatic bookmarks! Saves the last position in each file I listen to, so even if I accidentally tap the screen and go to another file or even folder, I can pick up the story where I last stopped listening.

Playback speed missing I think one of the biggest drawbacks of this is the playback speed adjustments. Beside that it is a very good application with a lot of features.

Droid4 on Android 4.0.4 - randomly jumps back 5sec every 60secs or so, it clicks then rewinds back about 5 seconds... hard to get through a book if every minute or so it automatically jumps back 5 seconds... Can this be fixed?
