How to use (back,play,fwd) button in HTC Audio Manager on HTC Home plugin?

[mr_ding]

Hi, I have HTC Home6 plugin, along with HTC audio manager 1.02 installed.
However, the button on home plugin (back,play,fwd) does not work.

I have to actually open htc audio manager in order to play the songs. Did I miss something?

Also, can HTC audio manager sorts songlist by title?
or display chinese/japanese fonts in playlist?

When you use the tab to open your player - what player does it open?

If it opens WMP (which mine did by default) you need to edit the registry and change WMP to Audio manager. Wait a bit, turn the pda off the soft reset.

*I think* it's HKLM\Software\HTC\Music Plug-in\ and there is a value in there which needs to be changed from 1 to 2.

Values:
1 = WMP
2 = Audio Manager

Yes, but he means the buttons on the HTC Home player do not work, which is true.
I found you need to actually open the HTC player, start playing a song or playlist, THEN minimise (while its still playing) it and you can control it from the HTC Home plugin.

As I said above, changing that registry entry will only change the default media player. It WONT solve your problem.

well i think this is no problem, but the plugin is created to work like that, you have to launch the player then press ok button(the hardware one) to minimize and then control it trough the plugin. The same thing is with WMP today plugin, the plugin does not play the music, it launches WMP

Just think about it briefly. How can Audiomanager / WMP play any song if isn't running? That is a bit weird idea.

[Biohead]

Same here xplode. Otherwise how else would you choose what music to start playing?

I only said what I said as I know that the control don't work for me IF I use WMP. If I use the audio manager the controls are fine once I've set it playing.

I think you need to re-read my post...this DOES work...you start the media player then MINIMISE it (not close it) and the plugin controls will be working...So I think you may need to think about it briefly...

I have the problem to

If i click on launch music wmp starts. but if wmp plays a song and i minimize wmp the plugin control doesnt work no title song or play or pauze.

You need to re-assign the HTC music player to HTC Audio manager for the buttons to work.

There's a HTC Home customizer floating around somewhere in the forum.

can screen be turned off and leave audio manager active - music plays,
or I have to use other players for listening music while walking?

[GuWa7]

Yes. It does work for me too...

Sorry. I haven't noticed I quoted wrong post. It was a reaction to the first one.

Hi biohead. Do you know the registry setting where I can change the default message application when i click on the message on the HTC Home. If I click on the envelope it points me to the MMS application instead of the outlook mail. Please help.

I known the reason why my device stopped all and no sound when using audio manager 1.02. Audio manager does not support 4GB SD card (Trancend economy). When I exchange it with my friend (his device uses 1GB SD card), the problem does not happen. Otherwise he use my SD card, he got the same problem as I did.

Hope, this post would be helpful for someone. Thanks
