I've got the same problem as with 4.5-also 5.0 works perfect until I restart the device. How could I check if there is a conflict with any other app or something?

difficult to tell, without installing one after an other... at least I don't know how to check for conflicts.

I gained 1XP in leveling up my almost not existend qt skills

Just for the kicks i took MohammadAGs source and added a bar-ish background. with qt creator

but i don't know how to change the "buttonpressed" icon in qt creator... (see second screenshot)
Any hint?

again, thanks for the mediabar it's getting so great.
I can think of tons of new features.

- Maybe you could add the functionality of the maemo-tv-out-control into the mediabar.

-also in some cases it would be good to have a disable mediabar option.

Cool!
You need to change the stylesheet for the button, something like

Code:

QPushButton:pressed { image: /path/to/image; }

Have a look at the WIP qt-mediaplayer here: http://gitorious.org/qt-mediaplayer/mediaplayer.

maemo-tvout-control isn't related to the mediabar, I already started working on a replacement applet for it, but this is off topic here (here's a sneak peak

)

And yes, I'm planning to add a disable mediabar option.

Looking promising there! Not too different from the suggestion I sent to MAG a few days ago

I'm still hoping for an option to make it visible all the time while viewing the desktop and even a possibility to add your own apps to the bar. Maybe borrow some functionality from one the shortcut dock apps currently available.

I think I found a bug. Sometimes if there are shortcuts or bookmarks under the Mediabar the clicks seem to go through to those shortcuts and bookmarks. Toggle the Mediabar a few times and suddenly it works again and correctly captures the click. Anyone else noticed this? Sorry if this has been mentioned before.

Qt Designer is really simple to use, tying it all to the code might put you off at first though

And I'm not bothered, it's all fun for me

@ MAG

Bro its a wonderful application but always when i restart it does show up. Could u make an icon in the menu or add an autostart option so that is starts automatically after every restart....

MohammadAG | # 169 | 2011-01-19, 14:45 | Report

It auto-starts at each bootup, it could be proximityd starting a bit late on your device. I'll check for a workaround.

@ MohammadAG

And just when I was thinking that I have not seen any more applications from you recently, you come up with the Media bar, which is indeed quite superb.

Could you tell me how to change the icons because right now the application is displaying N900's default icons rather than the icons from the theme that I have installed.

Also, is it possible to change the shortcuts that are displayed when the Media bar is activated.

Kudos to you and keep up the great work dude.
