the only way i found, is through the touch screen, the keys and the earphone both can not control the music player, i think it is stupid.
personally I installed AE Button and mapped the volume keys to be up/down
I can now scroll lists and pages and control the music tab wile the device is in my pocket
How do i do this? i cant assign a button for it, i tried searching but those threads were recommending something called pocket shield, but isnt there a way to use the windows media player toggle screen function?
thanks
Use CorePlayer or Pocket Music...they both have features to switch off the screen.
Using Windows Media player you simply power off with the switch on top and the player continues.
take a look here for Windows Media and Core: http://www.ppcmobility.com/forums/showthread.php?t=603
Possible that there's a setting I wasn't aware of in WMP but - I found that when I used WMP for music and hit the sleep button at the top, the music stopped playing - although when I use the music player tab in the TouchFlo3D, it carries on uninterrupted when hitting the sleep button
i dont like the HTC media player, its much easier to search using windows media player.
i used to assign a key to toggle screen when i had my touch dual, but on the HD i cant assign any keys.
any help? if possible i dont want to download a third party media player.
at the moment im just letting the screen turn itself off, but doing so risks my pocket touching the screen and doing stuff
My 2 cents
well I use TF3D for my music needs (it's enough for me) and my solution to turning the screen off (without headphones in, since with them it's not an issue) is with Gyrator which I have set to turn the screen off when I turn the HD upside down.
Just switch off the screen with your power button. It works regardless of whether you're using Coreplayer or native TF3D music player or FM radio. But the wired headset must be plug in for it to work.
An additional tip:
Since the screen is blanked out, how do you change volume and switch channel/song?
My way of doing this is to install AEBplus, and make single press of volume buttons Up and Down arrow key, and double press (you can use long press too, if you so prefer) as volume up and down. In this way, you need not get out of blank screen in order to skip or repeat songs, or to change channel.
Is there anyway of doing this via the htc player from the today screen?
I like the convenience of playing music from this screen. Just need the display to switch off.
Prefer not to install another player then have to search for it to play a bit of music.
Is it possible to program the volume buttons to control the independent music player volume when playing songs on TF3D instead of the system volume?
The old HTC Audio Manager had buttons to control the independent music volume so i wouldn't have to mess around with the system volume, is there any way to control music volume without affecting the system volume settings?
I'm using Tess 4.0 on my HTC Pure.
Is there a way to change the volume that a track is playing at without using the hard buttons on the side?
When the phone is docked (cassette/paper clip etc) the buttons end up at the bottom edge, forcing you lift the phone, change the volume and place it back.
I know this can be done via Settings, widgets etc, but shouldn't it be possible in the "music player" ?
Anyone have info about the Nemo player? (from the Liquid)
why is it most music players on android have no volume control on the screen for easy access? can anyone recommend me one? the only one i've found that has it is cloud skipper, but the audio quality from that music player is very poor. poweramp has great audio quality, but it don't have the volume control on screen like cloud skipper does. anyone knows a good one?
use volume buttons?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Maybe BSPlayer. It doesn't show the volume level on screen all the time, but you can adjust the volume level on screen by swiping
up and down on the right side of the display (and the volume level is displayed on screen during adjustment of the volume).
