Hmm... odd. I have LiveFocus installed - I never noticed it using the proximity sensor to activate itself... *Shrug* Maybe there's some setting somewhere for that?

If MohammadAG would like, I can install this myself and see if it works on my system (ShortcutD installed, but not using proximity sensor; livefocus installed too). Then we can compare what we have installed, etc, to see if anything's obviously the same among those for whom it doesn't work.

You could always start /opt/mediabar/mediabar manually and see what's going on ;)

As for the black borders, it's because my lazy implementation (when you hold the mediaplayer button controls show up, if you didn't notice that :p)
I'll add in auto resizing.

@MohammadAG
This definitely looks promising. This is one of those features that I also missed dearly from my 5800XM. I'll be downloading in the next couple days for sure.

Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
this is cool, suggestion:

-short vibe when activating/deactivating

also after changing time, do we need to reboot?

cloud596 2011-01-13 06:22
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)

Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
Hello Mohammad!
Thanks for the nice app. :)

Is it normal to show the dock when phone (call functionality) is in use? Or may be this is a bug.

Could you please fix this?

Thanks!

F2thaK 2011-01-13 06:39
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
it does start automatically, i rebooted twice and it works straight away...........?

fw190 2011-01-13 07:09
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
trying to start it manualy gave me this:
Code:
$ /opt/mediabar/mediabar     
"mediabar" "0.1" initallized with process ID: 4173
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name proximityd.method.change was not provided by any .service files

Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
Time is loaded dynamically from the file, so nope, saving the file should show the results instantly.
I'll add a vibration when it opens/closes and make it configurable.
Moving it to the left will cause it not to function, that's how I originally intended it, but the task manager button always captures press so it won't work.

fw190 try start proximityd; stop mediabar; start mediabar.

F2thaK 2011-01-13 09:43
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
im sure i needed to reboot after changing the time..

fw190 2011-01-13 09:43
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
How to start it?

F2thaK 2011-01-13 09:46
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
also another suggestion MAG...

auto close/hide after say 5 seconds..??

D4rKlar 2011-01-13 10:10
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
Personally I think it would look amazing as a dock on the bottom, but I'm perfectly happy as it is! Thanks again mate :)

I've got a friend who's having issues (resolved by starting manually), but when he first installed he didn't have a mediabar.config file, he had to create it himself. Not sure if this helps but the only difference I can see between my system and his is hostmode, could that have anything to do with it?

Kind Regards,
D4rKlar

MohammadAG 2011-01-13 10:20
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
Done (autohide), though I need to add some GUI to configure this or I'll drive some users crazy :P

Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
Hmm, is there a way to weaken the proximity sensor somehow? Because I changed the time to 30ms, so that mediabar would open with a single tap. But sometimes it opens when my finger is about 2cm above the sensor.

Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
This is very Nice Mod but due2 close distance between Task Switcher and Proximeter sensor this MBar open most of the time(need2 use keypad ctrl+back instead) and i found out also open during call

MohammadAG 2011-01-13 22:01
Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
I'll see if I can disable it when a call is in progress, noticed this today.

The proximity sensor is an open/closed thing, distance can't be measured with it.

Need icon suggestions/icons for the Application Manager and the icon for the GUI, please? :)

Thanks for this MAG! I can try to throw together something in a day or so...

btw I also second the idea of having the bar come from the center and bottom of the screen, or at least the option to choose.

this is awesome! Thanks MAG!

what would be amazing is the ability to replace with other applications! definitely cherry on the cake like the other user suggested

Good enough for me :D
Thanks!
One question though, could you change the white (not part of the MB letters) to an alpha channel? I'm a big n00b when it comes to editing images :p

Re: [Announce] Media bar for Maemo 5 (XpressMusic-esque)
 
@MohammadAG: i dont know if its mentioned yet but are you
sure you want to hide the close button with the browser one?
some users may miss it if something goes wrong.
