Control TouchPlayer in Today Screen!

[Guest frmariam]

Not sure this was done before... Anyway I found the way to control TouchPlayer via system calls and created some small Mortscripts and a quick example of a HS++ theme for the today screen (please notice it's just a quick and dirty example).

You can find the smplayer theme here (once again this is just an example... you can create other themes or even use other skinning apps).

Screenshot:

PS: The scripts included in the theme can be used in many other ways (for instance if someone updated GreenButton to differentiate between nomal-press, long-press or double-tap and launch a different app/script/whatever according to the case one could control TouchPlayer using the headphones button!).

I rebooted my device and the scripts didn't work... Seems like the messages change every time we reboot the Omnia (wparam and lparam remain the same). I found the new messages again using dotFred's Task Manager but it's not pratical if they just change on each boot...

The part in red is what changes...

SendMessage("Touch Player", 49170, 16842755, 0)

There's gotta be a way to determine this but I just don't know how... If anyone can shed some light over this it would be awesome.

After searching for a long time I discovered a PointUI widget that controls Touch Player perfectly. Dug around the cs file and finally found the correct way to control Touch Player :)

Just updated this theme. Also adapted the scripts to control Touch Player using the button in the Omnia wired headphone.
