Playbook support for pause/play button

Post by luapekralc » Fri Dec 14, 2012 3:14 am

Hi

The PlayBook has always IMHO had a weird action on the pause/play button:

Short press=pause or play toggle
Long press=mute/unmute toggle

In Neutron the short press does not seem to do anything.

Just a mix or annoyance, but would be nice to put it in the queue for future development. Or am i doing something wrong?

Thanks

Hi!

On PlayBooks currently media buttons can't be used by 3-rd party apps, like Neutron. That is why you see no activity from Neutron when pressing them. In BlackBerry 10 (and may be in future updates of PlayBooks too) there is support for media buttons and Neutron is working fine with them, e.g. you can play/stop skip to next/previous.

Best regards,
Dmitry.

Thanks Dmitry. Look forward to RIM's improved API.
