The MPRIS implementations of VLC and Spotify are kinda broken, so there is not much we can do about that. There already is a slider which can be used to seek arbitrarily if the player supports it. We don't see the benefit of long-pressing the button. Same for the volume, we don't really see the need for additional buttons that do things that can be done already. Every new element that we add makes it harder for us to maintain the code, so we don't like to add complexity when there is little benefit. Sorry Ah ok, I was thinking the buttons in addition to the slider for precision even though it does same thing, the slider is pretty blunt when trying to incrementally fast Fwd a 2 hour film for example. But I take your point it s not in your control and the complexity it adds etc is fair enough But the KDE/Plasma 5.12.4 Lock-Screen has a working play/pause button for the VLC player! In kde-connect application the play button is grayed out after pause is clicked and in Android message system the pause button disappears. As a workaround i find a dbus command for kde-connect: dbus-send --print-reply --session --dest=org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.vlc /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player.PlayPause Tested with vlc 3.0.1-2 and kde-connect 1.3.0-1 |
