Hi,
Dont know if this is a normal kind of request but I have searched wiki and forums; cant find anything
I want to use my Kaiser as music player (pocket music or pocket player or even HTC Audo or WMP) but having 3 separate volume controls gets a bit much:
1) BT (HTC S100)
2) the media app own volume
3) Kaiser's volume (on taskbar)
I prefer to leave the main Kaiser volume on 50% - dont need a loud ringtone normally but when playing music would prefer to have music louder (ie main volume 75-100% and control only on BT or app).
Is there a registry setting I can edit to override the main volume for music?
thanks in advance
anybody have any ideas? please
Don't think there is a registery key. There is HTC Equalizer & HTC Audio Boost but both of them don't work on the TyTN II
Pocket music player 5.0
Re my original Q on 3 different volume controls, I just loaded Pocket music trial and the volume control in the app adjusts the main system volume, unlike WMP, HTC Audio, where the app volume is independent of main system vol and BT vol. So thanks PMP 5 - you've gone a long way to helping; so much so its worth paying $20 to register.
is it possible to control music in touch flo
when the device screen is toggled off ????(using hardware keys)
that way i guess ill be saving up more charge
is there any alternate way to do so ??any 3rd party music player ??
thank you
CorePlayer has a option which u can choose to make the screen black (and presumably locked) and u can still use the buttons.
I use WMP to play music...I sometimes connect it to my car's audio system to listen to music...
is there any way that I can use gestures to change tracks? maybe by moving my finger a certain way over the capacitive area? it would feel much safer than scrolling to the "music" tab in CHome and changing the song (I'm using 6.5)
I believe that this feature is already implemented :
Try moving your finger from right to left when the album cover is displayed, it'll play the next track of your playlist.
edit : 'left to right' on the screen
thanks, I'll try that
is there any way to remap the volume buttons for this purpose as well?
While playing MP3music, I would like my X1 to turn off (completely) the backlight, to save battery. It could go off automatically (by the timing defined in the Energy configuration), or manually (by pressing the on/off button). However, I have found this weird behaviour:
a- Using Windows Media Player, backlight goes to a "dimmed" state, but it is still on. The display never goes completely off. If I press the on/off button, reproduction is stopped (and the display goes off).
b- Using CorePlayer (my favorite media player), works similar than in Win Media Player. I have tryed all the related configuration options, but didn´t work.
c- Using the Xperia Media Panel (which I hate), while playing music if I press the on/off button, media continues playing, and the display goes completely off, as it should be.
How can I configure Windows Media Player or CorePlayer to turn off backlight, but still continue reproduction (as in the Xperia Panel) ??
Thank you.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A) No Solution
B) No Solution.
C) This is why I use the Media Panel.
You can try Conduit's Pocket Player. It is better than CorePlayer for audio files, the only con is that it doesn't look fancy like the Media Panel. It also supports the functions you mentioned.
Thank you for your answer poetryrocksalot,
It´s incredible that such a simple feature of turning off the backlight to save battery while reproducing music is not available in a product like Core Player, wich has a lot of feedback from users, and has a LOT of configuration options...
I will try also Conduit´s..
It is incredible how unaware many users are of these features being available. WMP is easiest. Check out the options. You can set a key to turn off the display. I recommend long press up or long press down. Another option is to generally assign a hardware key to "Display off" using Spb Pocket Plus or AeButtons. This solves the problem for Coreplayer as well.
if you plugged-in your headphones, then you can turn-off display and hear music
//sorry for my bad english
many players support you making a hardware button asigned to the function
often called toggle screen
which does just what you request know that wmp have it or at least used to last
I used that player
Thank you very much! I have installed AEButtons, as suggested by Firewall, and now not only can turn off the screen, but do a lot of new things!
Now I have had to uninstall AEButtons, because it interacts with PhonEX, which is an improved dialer I use. When I have an incoming call, it seems that PhonEX "unloads" AEButtons...
then do as I told you
in wmp
click menu->options->buttons->toggle screen
assign the key you want to turn off the screen
start playing music and click the assigned button and it turn
off the screen
I use Winamp for music, I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a way to use the volume buttons to control music? I know it's possible on Cyanogen mod, but I'm using serendipity for now until CM is stable...does anyone know if music controls with volume buttons is possible?
