Packed Media Widget is an homescreen widget to control Multimedia player, SomePlayer and InternetRadioPlayer, all at once.



It's made of 8buttons, in a 2x4 grid. The ones on the right are the control ones, and the ones on the left, hidden, are used to change the player to affect or to start it.

Starting from the bottom, the context buttons are: Multimedia, SomePlayer, InternetRadioPlayer and "start".
To use the widget, first a context button must be pressed since at widget startup there is no context chosen.
"Start" button behaves differently based on the chosen context:
  • For Multimedia, it "plays" the song. It's a play, not a resume, so the song will be restarted.
  • For Someplayer, it checks if the player is running, and it does it in case it's not.
  • For InternetRadioPlayer, it starts the player if not running, or it shows it if hidden.
Widget is highly customizabled, from sizes to colours.

Actually in Extras-devel.

Top right? There is no widget there other than PackedMediaWidget.

EDIT: if you meant the bar, it's painted over the background.

How could that possibly be his right and your left? Is he looking upside down or you looking upside down... that's the only possibility I can think off...

Well, as Protagora used to say, "Everything is relative".

That's a calendar widget written with Qt and QtMobility to suit my desktop style.

@Electricgod: ye, I may add an orientation option.
