New Function: Player.CurrentPosition_in_%() - realjobe - 2008-02-08 Dear Board. I asked from you to implement Player.FinishTime(), and you did. I have utilized that in Skin for quite some time now (in VideoFullScreen.xml). Can there be also function to return current playing time in %. We have System.Time() and we have Player.FinishTime()? PageSkip +- navigation on Dialogs. - realjobe - 2008-02-08 Dear Board. Can there be <PageSkip Forward> maped to FastForwad' button and <PageSkip Backward> maped to 'Rewind' buttons on IR remote? All the System etc dialogs that have long file/items listings should have pageSkip, so that the hopping on the list could be a lot of faster. Example, PlugIN SurfTheChannel under 'TV shows' has over 670 items on the list. Scrolling to the middle of if take DownArrow_press' a bit of time. Page skip could hop one page (some 30 items visible on one "page") with one keyPress. - spiff - 2008-02-08 player.progress will conflict with player controls - realjobe - 2008-02-08 PageSkip can be maped when player is off and common dialog is on. during media play, regular FF,Rew are mapd. function modes. - spiff - 2008-02-08 there's no such thing as conditional key mappings. and in any case i would strongly oppose such a change - there's nothing quite as bad as a user interface where one button can do several things in one place - realjobe - 2008-02-08 well, at the moment those keys are not doing anything when any media player isn't runnig. Sure there can be check wheater there is a item dialog created or not and then deliever the KeyEvent? donno. - realjobe - 2008-02-08 spiff Wrote:player.progress What does Player.Progress return? Player.FinishTime returns text. - spiff - 2008-02-08 sure it can be. but i just told you why i think it's a bad idea. hmm, player.progress is an int, dunno if those can be used in info strings - realjobe - 2008-02-08 spiff Wrote:hmm, player.progress is an int, dunno if those can be used in info strings ..and thats why I asked for the new function to return "40%" meaning a textual (string) output, same fashion as that Player.FinishTime. - realjobe - 2008-02-08 realjobe Wrote:..and thats why I asked for the new function to return "40%" meaning a textual (string) output, same fashion as that Player.FinishTime.Player.Progress = <control type="progress" id="1"> Player.FinishTime = control type="label" id="1"> - Jezz_X - 2008-02-08 player.progress returns a label in % if you use it in a label at least pretty sure it does - realjobe - 2008-02-08 <control type="label" id="1"> <description>The Current progress</description> <width>100</width> <posx>680</posx> <posy>30</posy> <info>Player.Progress</info> <align>right</align> <textcolor>green</textcolor> <font>special13</font> </control> did not work.
