Is it that simple??? media player control, with d-bus scripts on QBW

when I reviewed some d-bus script, I found this one: http://wiki.maemo.org/Phone_control#...rently_playing

dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.pause

and then I thought that would be helpful if you could with similar scripts to control the music through QBW ...

then only i replaced "pause", with appropriate command ... AND ITWORKS! : D
here's the script:
PLAY:
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.play
PAUSE:
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.pause
STOP:
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.stop
PREVIOUS:
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.previous
NEXT:
dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.next

and you could rearrange it on your desktop in a manner so it would you be comfortable if you using it with your one hand! :D
great, isn't it?? :)

but now..... it would be cool if i knew a script for Fast Forward.... Rewind.... or best thing it would be if it could skip or go back 5-10 sec.... (if you press a widget for a longer time, it will be shown a "desktop menu"...)
and another thing....: Pause cmd only pauses the song... it won't continue... (play cmd starts from beginning of the song....)

SO PEOPLE... if you could help me with finding a proper scripts (for missing ones), i would be grateful! :)

P.S. and i found a way to make a PHONE APP icon (widget in this case) bigger! ;)
THX No!No!No!Yes! for QBW ;)

Sure.

Code:

dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.set_position int32:1 int32:5

^ skips by 5 seconds

Code:

dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.set_position int32:1 int32:-5

^ goes back by 5 seconds

http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-fi...r-set-position explains the meaning of the first int32 argument.

Code:

dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.get_position

gets the current elapsed time.

Oh, you want:

Code:

dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.resume

Get current state:

Code:

#!/bin/sh



#Thanks http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/maemo/developers/60881

mode=$(dbus-send --print-reply=literal --dest=com.nokia.mafw.renderer.Mafw-Gst-Renderer-Plugin.gstrenderer /com/nokia/mafw/renderer/gstrenderer com.nokia.mafw.renderer.get_status | tr '\n' ' ' | awk '{print $6}')



case $mode in

        0)

        echo "Stopped"

        ;;



        1)

        echo "Playing"

        ;;



        2)

        echo "Paused"

        ;;



        3)

        echo "Transitioning"

        ;;

esac

oh.... i found a "resume....
but then i have 2 buttons (widgets) for pause, and resume... could i implement all in one?
and tell me... for what do i need a current state that you provide me above??? THX ;)

This looks good. Would it be possible to rotate the queenbeecon widgets by 90 degrees so that we could have a portrait desktop containing info on various system states, and music controls?

well.... as far as music controls: you can add a image to widget, but only it won't rotate,.... but, you can make her rotate (that is what i am about to do) ;)
and hey... there's a some brainstorming for QBW developers: can they make a rotate output function???? O_o :)
